Harrison, My experience of you opening space is that you do give a bit of history and tell a few success stories about OS as you begin. I have found them settling and useful as people contemplate entering into what is for many unfamiliar territory.
Is it possible that I have only seen you opening space in the context of an ODN or similar event and that you have added such touches as these only because you were in partial teaching mode about OS in such events? Do you not tell those stories when you are opening space for a client system? ~Alan Klein -----Original Message----- From: Harrison Owen For whatever it is worth -- when I am facilitating an Open Space I say just as little as I possibly can and virtually nothing about Open Space. I find OS speaks very well for itself, and there is nothing I can add. * * ========================================================== osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of osl...@listserv.boisestate.edu: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist
