We’ve test-driven Book Club with groups of all sizes, from tight-knit teams to sprawling organizations. Here’s what we found:
For small teams or businesses:
Got less than 20 participants? One Book Club’s got you covered. You can host your Book Club and include up to 20 people. Simple as that.
For medium to large organizations:
Here’s where we suggest: one Book Club per core business unit, division, or team. Ideally, you want one Book Club for each group of 20 people.
We’ve seen larger organizations arrange Book Clubs within and across different departments – how it is configured can lead to some of the best serendipity across your team.

A spark is something quite small and, by itself, not very powerful. But a spark has the ability to ignite. An idea is like a spark; alone it is just a set of words, but it too can ignite. A great idea can inspire others to dream bigger. Let us all work together to ignite something greater than ourselves.
Let us all be a Spark of Optimism.
