Re: [OSList] Questions on continuous Open Space

[Michael Herman via OSList]

some thoughts on your questions below, jake.  but first, you'll want to
find the univ of kentucky rural health system story in harrison's tales
from open space.  here are the rules they came up with.  this must be one
of my top five shared bits of os lore:  michaelherman.com/ky

nothing in os requires that everyone be invited, or even that all session
are posted.  people meet up in the bar, schedule and not, all the time.
people say, "let's go to dinner."  no notes are posted.  all fine.  the uk
rules address this a little differently.

articulate it, great.  i'd think it'd be obvious.  if not, gather first
impressions, write them down.  revisit in a month.  meanwhile, the work is
the work.

is much to learn from the agile movement.  what you're talking about might
learn a lot from kanban, scrum and enterprise scrum.  more than i can say
here.  but in my experience, those are all effectively alternative versions
of ongoing open space.  they've been used a lot, but are all made better
with insights from what we do in os meetings.  i'd be glad to chat about
them with you.  or can share  links when website updating is done this week.

[OSList] Questions on continuous Open Space

[Jake Yeager via OSList]

Hi everyone!

I am drafting a proposal for a continuous Open Space operating process for
the OD team that I am on. The team is nine people.

I reference Birgitt's article on Wesley Urban Ministries:
https://www.openspaceworld.org/files/tmnfiles/social.htm

I also reference these notes I took on the Youth for Europe case study by
Hans-Georg Wicke:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Ft1HL4k3G-zlFOkI8ZQCIKComSXe1eV47iv0yJ8OySU/edit?usp=sharing


Some questions I'd love to hear your thoughts on:

   - Within a continuous Open Space container, do you think that all
   meetings among the group should be announced to everyone? That is, should
   everyone be invited to every meeting? What happens if two people just want
   to have coffee and catch-up? In the Youth for Europe case study, the
   convener of the meeting determined whom to invite, which might not be
   everyone. It's like a mini-Open Space, rather than a meeting within an Open
   Space. But it can also get cliquish that way, and it seems less transparent.
   - Is it beneficial to have a theme? It doesn't seem like either
   organization had a theme in the case studies for the overall Open Space.
   Perhaps their purpose was their theme... In Youth for Europe, there was a
   theme for individual meetings, i.e., the mini-Open Spaces.
   - Any suggestions on how to handle push notification overload? So many
   meetings might start getting called that people's inboxes are stuffed, and
   they tone out.

I am pretty sure I'll have more questions later. :D

Thanks ahead of time!

All the best,
Jake
