Unmoderated Meeting

An unmoderated meeting is a gathering in which there is no designated moderator or facilitator to guide the discussion or manage the meeting’s flow. Unmoderated meetings often rely on participants to self-moderate, which can lead to a more informal and flexible atmosphere. While they can encourage spontaneous conversation and idea exchange, unmoderated meetings may also risk becoming chaotic, unproductive, or sidetracked if participants struggle to maintain focus or resolve conflicts. Depending on the objectives and dynamics of the group, unmoderated meetings can be effective for certain scenarios but may require clear ground rules and structure to ensure their success.
