Quantum state diffusion unraveling of the Linblad master equation is utilized to define a geometric phase of an open quantum system. It is then shown that such geometric phase is invariant under unitary symmetry transformations of the Linblad equation, which is important property not shared by the geometric phases based on other types of unraveling.
