Dear Prabu Naidu,
its stories like yours that lift my open space spirit and create
immediate broadhappy smiles in me.
Very happy that the Friedrich Ebert Stiftung keeps being engaged in this
effort. They have conducted a number of os events in Berlin and Bonn and
also sponsored a training in Pakistan...
Greetings from Berlin

Dear everyone - here is a brief update on my OS session in Tehran, Iran last
week:
On 4th February 2008 some forty producers and managers from the radio division of the
Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) converged in one of the studios that was the
venue of an Open Space Technology (OST) session to discuss on the theme "Radio
Management in Iran".
The participants who came to the session - based on open invitations announced
on banners throughout the studios - had a desire to contribute to the future of
Radio in Iran, they came, enjoyed the collegial networking and contributed
ideas and thoughts.
The Open Space was facilitated by me. The event was co-sponsored by the
Freidrich Ebert Stiftung and IRIB.
In the full day session, six concurrent market place discussions were held over
two time slots of one hour each. There was deep conversations and many ideas
generated on the theme. During the action planning; six key ideas were voted to
be worked on next and six leaders accepted the responsibility to take the ideas
to the next step.
The next day on 5th February 2008, a smaller group of ten participants in the
morning and another ten in the afternoon attended a training session on Open
Space so that they will be equipped to conduct Open Space sessions on their own
in the future. These participants had also attended the full day session the
day before. The participants intend to use Open Space to engage their own staff
as well as their listeners in improving their programmes and services.
The two-day proceedings were beamed live on the Internet for IRIB staff outside
Tehran to follow.
Best Regards,
