Dear Open Spacers
I am opening space for a client in Newcastle (two hours north of Sydney,
Australia) for around 250-300 people on coastal zone management. For any number
of reasons (probably bad ones) we are opening the space outside in a fort on
top of a hill at 6pm at night, people standing!

Hi Andrew,
I hope this isn't silly, but you might use pieces of wood and nails instead of
paper for your outside Open Space. People could write their issues on the wood
and then nail them to something... You might need a lot of hammers, though.
Just a thought.

I would appreciate your thoughts on this issue. Recently I opened space for
130 municipal leaders from one municipality. The conference lasted for two
days and due to different reasons we did not come around to actionplanning.

Hi Thomas,
Hope this will be of some help.

I suggest you ask each of the participants if they want to be
involved in detailed action planning and if they would select one of
the six priorities. Once participants have chosen a priority, ask
the convenor/group leader to organise a day or half day for each
priority. The outputs can

Barry, thanks for your clarifying words.
The crisis brings up questions about this list that we have not asked
before. We have never in my memory had sustained dialogue about anything
other than OST, except maybe God and poetry. ;-)

All three options can work from my experience and what I have heard from
others. You do have an opportunity here. Whether with the whole group

Thomas's post has spurred me to post on an action planning design I am
going to be trying for the first time in three weeks.
I am facilitating a 1.5 day OS for 125 Aboriginal youth from across
Canada. They are gathering under the auspices of five national
organizations (25 youth from each group)

I've used a similar strategy to Harrison's to move people from a crowded
college classroom down a couple of flights of stairs and out onto a plaza,
where the single file of people holding hands followed easily into a circle.
Worked like a charm and made a very nice beginning.
