yes, Harrison, yes, if so , it will be much better, I do have now usually 3 hours, but I started with 2 hours, as people at education and administration are really afraid of doing something unusual, but I decided now, that in a choise of NO Open Space and 2 hour Open Space I still prefer to do it, to give people at least a sence of what is OS, then saying in the closing session, that minimum for better one is 4-5 hours one well...whatever happens. best wishes elena

First thought -- see if you can negotiate 2 three hour meeting, or better 1 six hours. You will get an awful lot more done with greater depth. On the other hand, if the group has had any experience in Open Space -- 3 two hour sessions might be very interesting.

The Board, chaired now by an "ENGO" that I do some work with, has asked that I facilitate three consecutive 2-hour board meetings in Open Space. Can you share with me some of your learnings doing such meetings? Any warnings? Thanks a million!
