Annee Marie,
I have done these type of short programs many time. They can work very effectively. I try to make sure to have at least two rounds. Also, make sure to have enough time to close down the session properly. The only unfortunate effect of these short programs is that they encourage people to use OS as a short add-on to activities rather than seeing it as the main event. You have to talk with people about the powerful impact of a multi-day event.

Hoping this gets through... I tried to send a few days ago... Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone has opened space for a 90-minute session? And if so, how'd it go? I'm thinking it would take 20-30 minutes before groups started talking, so there may be time for one session? Closing circle of 15 minutes? It seems too short to me. I'm asking because I'm considering proposing OS for a group that meets once a month of between 20-40 people. Harrison will say go for it. I'm wondering whether anyone has. Thanks!
