[ Gathering ] - May 10th webinar

[ Gathering ]

The idea of a ‘gathering’ feels somewhat informal.  It builds a picture of milling around, some small groups forming, but no coherence or structure.

Any group, community, or meeting is, by definition, a gathering. Maybe some should have structure.  Those gatherings are for a purpose, to achieve a goal.

There’s an art to managing a gathering for an outcome.  There’s even a book about it by Priya Parker.  In it, she recognises the importance of a skilled host at a gathering.  Also, the need for structure, purpose, and the right number at a goal-based gathering (i.e., your next work meeting).
