The Art of Gathering: How We Meet and Why It Matters by Priya Parker
4.0
I liked this book a lot. Here are some notes I made of my favorite parts:
The art of gathering
Court in Brooklyn red hook
Page one nyt meeting
More specific meetups more successful
Tea - how is this gathering different from future gatherings
Tips on finding purpose
Zoom out
Drill baby drill - why are you doing what you’re doing
What problem does your gathering solve
What do you want to be different because you gathered
Exclusion - By closing the door you create the room
Who Fit and fulfill the purpose of the gathering
8-12 people intimate
30 party
150 still see everyone (Dunbar tribe number)
The environment
The chateau principle
Displacement
Chill is you caring for you masquerading as you caring for them
Generous authority - exerting authority for the GUESTS ( ex Alamo drafthouse) - how long do you wait?
Capotes masked party
Pop up rules
Dine on blanc
Pop up etiquete (late push ups)
Prepping people for a gathering (sleep no more)
Sprout stories
An invitation to intimacy but depth is a choice (swimming pool)
Good controversy
Heat map (what avoiding that don’t think they are avoiding- sacred cows - what goes unsaid - what protecting and why)
