I am smiling at the thought. So, rest assured, with no requirement to sign up on the sheets, people flock to the marketplace, the marketplace is open, the shopping and horse trading begin, and the buzz is the great getting ready buzz of ‘all set, get ready, and go’. The one additional advantage of no sign ups is that people do get on into their first group faster. Yes, there is a great buzz and it seems of shorter duration as people charge towards the first session. And it is great as they experience their productivity in the sessions so quickly.</span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'> </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D'>For some many years, I have taught Working With Open Space Technology.

The ingredients are examined. There are some similarities in answers such as ‘the circle’. There are a lot of differences too, as different viewpoints/perspectives/cultural and other life experiences come into play.

I don’t have anyone sign up onto the session of their choosing. In thinking of one thing less to do, there was very little point to do so.

I always keep the space in the plenary area free of small group sessions…and simply invite the groups, if they discover they are too big, to come back and use space in the plenary area. I remember a meeting that Harrison and I did some years back, and a large group of about 40 people stayed in the plenary session for the full four session times of the day…the session was ‘the conflict’ and was able facilitated all day long by three amazing women.

At the end of the day, it remains true – that whoever comes are the right people. But the signatures do give some useful information as to whether the “right people” will be a lot or a few. In smaller groups with lots of free space, that information really doesn’t make a lot of difference. But when you have a large number of participants, it can be helpful, especially when the break out space are confined. When you see a session paper covered with signatures that can suggest that a change of venue to a larger space may be in order. This is not something you need to worry about as facilitator. The folks will take care of the business.
