 This was the shortest scenario workshop we have ever attempted to do and our conclusion is that it was: too short! The group was about 15 people, not all of whom know each other, but who all had a specific take on the workshop topic. Most of them were keen to share their knowledge, experience and opinions, but unfortunately such a short workshop meant that we had to cut many interesting conversations (very) short. For this group size and such complex topic a minimum of three hours is needed.  This was the shortest scenario workshop we have ever attempted to do and our conclusion is that it was: too short!

-Two experienced facilitators who are used to work together are a must for such short sessions. Nik and I have never facilitated a scenario workshop together and we had only an hour or so to prepare. This would have been fine if we were used to co-facilitation, as we could have sensed where we could complement each other. We agreed we would improvise, but the problem was that we couldn't quite sense what the other person needed. I remember stumbling over myself to both host conversations and harvest them (very quickly), which meant that I didn't do either very convincingly... What suffered most was the group dynamics, meaning that a few people comfortable with speaking in public were the ones mostly heard, while there were several quiet people who didn't manage to say much...+Two experienced facilitators who are used to work together are a must for such short sessions.
