I would suspect that there is nothing more empowering that that person
has ever run across before.
And then, what is a "difficult" person? May just be the salt in the stew.
And, what about the magic of selforganisation and my role as
facilitator/peacemaker?

Thanks for the reassurance, Jack.
However, I am not as concerned about the to the topic and the
conversation as I am with the affect on the "difficult" individual.
While it may be empowering for people to simply leave an unfruitful
conversation, I wonder how empowering it is for the individual left behind?

Bui,
This does happen and can hurt the development of content around an
otherwise attractive topic. If the self-organizing soil of the group
is fertile enough, people will continue the conversation in different
places and in different ways, the way water will flow around rocks to
whatever openings available. When people with passion are given
freedom, good things happen no matter what.
Translation: not to worry.
Be well,
Jack

As someone who is still just learning and trying to find out how
and when OST can be used, I am curious about people's experience
with the effect the Law of Two Feet can have on irritating
dominating personalities. Say for example that someone is
dominating a group and practically annoying everyone else with the
result of them using their two feet and leaving. How does this
affect the person left behind? I have some concerns about what
could happen to this person but before I mention them, I am
interested to hear what others have experienced.
Curious!
