Dear Andrea, <about breaking up into small groups at closure time>
I have done this, but not in Open Space. What I can say about it in other settings is that it helps people express what is important to them and be sure that they are heard because it is in a small group. The workshops that I have used this in were all with people who had some experience with working in groups but I assume that after two days in open space your participants would be able to handle this exchange in a respectful way as well. It is also good to have the wrap up, to take it back to the level of the whole group. So I think it is a good idea and I would like to know how it works out. Good luck!
