Hi dear Peggy, I did provide though smaller OS in conditions when there were other 'round tables' around. I have very few time, but I decided first, that 'who ever comes'... and second, that I will still do closing circle for OS, it just need aprox. an hour to be left for this.
we usually give some question : what did you learn here and what are you going to do with this in your life, but it could be any other idea, question, or just sharing ideas from OS. good luck elena ----- Original Message ----- From: Peggy Holman To: osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu Sent: Monday, May 06, 2002 11:02 PM Subject: OST as a conference track I'm doing an Open Space in a few weeks that has a few twists (don't they all?) and would appreciate your thoughts. The setting is a 4-day conference of Computer Professionals for Social Responsibility. The Open Space is on the last 2 days. The first twist is that the OST event isn't for the whole conference. It is a track of the conference on a particular topic (Building a Pattern Language of Living Communication). It won't be closed in any way; anyone can come and go. It does have it's own space and will run on it's own schedule. It's just that other conference sessions will be happening around it. First question -- has anyone done this? Any advice? The second twist is that the closing circle is envisioned as the conference closing. This means that it will include not just the people who have been in the OST event but everyone who attended the conference. Again, anyone have experience with something like this? Any insights would be most appreciated! Thanks, Peggy _______________________________ Peggy Holman The Open Circle Company 15347 SE 49th Place Bellevue, WA 98006 425.746.6274 www.opencirclecompany.com
