Hey all.
I'm planning an open space mainly to get myself some experience (it will
be my first as a leader) but also because it is a topic I am passionate
about, one I really want to have the opportunity to participate in an
open space about.
My simple questions:
What about being a participant and a facilitator at the same time?
What should I watch out for?
What should I avoid?
What should I make sure to do?
Is it a "no-no"?
If it was a traditional meeting, and I was acting as a traditional
facilitator, I would not want to compromise my "neutrality" by
participating in the discussion, thus risking alienating some
participants, making them feel that it is "biased". But since OST is so
different, and the facilitator doesn't really have any say over what
happens and what gets said, is it OK to participate?
Just looking for thoughts,
Kevin
