I think people should ideally do a lot of experimentation, running a bunch of EA events in different formats and reporting back on how they seemed to go. I like something of the spirit of the Socrates cafe, and hope it gets tried a few times!
Thanks, Owen. I agree that this approach lends itself to a lot of experimentation. While the “usual” approach (often) doesn’t lend itself to a final consensus at the end of a session, I think doing this with a more defined purpose for EA participants would be relatively straightforward. I have some thoughts on how to best execute it, perhaps including a survey element for participants before and after a session or sessions. If you’re interested in more particulars and nuances, I would be happy to share thoughts and ideas on a call or other correspondence.
This seems cool.
