I agree Laurel. It seems to depend on the group and the size and the
acoustics in a room. IN most of the cases that I have facilitated, the
groups have found the noise levels distracting and found other venues. We
had two groups in a large but low ceilinged room at the open space I
facilitated for nursing leaders in London Ontario two weeks ago. They found
the noise levels distracting and so one group moved to the main room
(Self-managed of course -figured it out by themselves. They reported this to
me and I just smiled). I had designated the main room as breakouts, but the
number of topics raised meant that it was not in use, thank goodness. It was
a reinforcement for me that it is a good idea to have enough breakout space
so that the main room or a large space is available for large groups
(convened or butterfly/bumblebee) to gather and chat, preferably near or
containing the snacks and coffee.

I've noticed that the energy in the room can get quite frenetic when
all the discussions are in one room. Sometimes this is exhilarating,
sometimes exhausting. Laurel
