"If some think we’re trying to reach a decision and others are attempting to explore creatively, no-one will be satisfied."

This is very, very important for me. And where 'invitations' can really make the difference. If it's clear to everyone the purpose of our gathering, disappointment and frustration are low.

And, of course, I'm also a big supporter of the Consent Decision Making process: it's fundamental to create a psycological safe environment in which radical honesty is a true value.

Thanks Eleanora. Yes, the invitation can be really crucial in making sure everyone knows what will be happening and what is expected (and not expected).

By the way everyone, I am doing a one-hour online session on Host Leadership for Eleanora and the Agile Meetup in Turin, Italy on Tuesday 28 February (next week!) at 5.30pm UK time (18.30 CET). It will be in English. It's free to join. Expect 30-40 minutes from me with a fishbowl Q&A. https://www.meetup.com/it-IT/agile-community-torino/events/291353795/

Exactly: be all on the same page is fundamental to set the bar.

Invitation Is also one of the design elements of Liberating Structures and I've experience our crucial is for the outcome of the gathering.

After months, it's still the most difficult thing to overcome for me.

About the upcoming meetup... Can't wait!

It will be a great learning opportunity! 🤩
