Interesting conversation. I liked Christine's story and here's another one of
quite a different kind. A friend of mine here in Perth helped set up an Open
Space meeting. 'perfect process' and plenty of lead time on the invitation.
Seventy people said they were coming. Six showed up on the day.
So, as others have said, maybe it really is about the energy/passion more than
the lead time.

Hi Dan
To share a story with you, I was contacted one month ago by a client for an
open space event. We only had a short meeting together to clarify that the need
was there, purpose was clear but the team was not there. very few people were
able to commit some time and energy to it. He sent out the invitation without
consulting me. Last week we had a team of 7 people who met together for the
1rst time , we spend 4 half days together (some people being there for 1/2 a
day, some more..) . Event is next week, and within 2 weeks everything will be
settled. 150 people are expected and the team consider the event as the start
of a process.
Christine
