Hi, all.
I love this sharing of experiences about grid versus zero grid versus
things in-between.
I tried out a grid some years ago and used it for a few times,
thinking it reduced a step (zero post-its - you simply bring your
topic sheet up to the wall and place it). And then I stopped b
Peggy, The two videos were terrific; just downloaded them. I can't wait for
you to complete your research on Engaging Emergence which goes hand in hand
with Open Space. So many themes I can relate to including science, change
and the laws of nature, disturbance, hospitable conditions, angst, humi
Dear Fabian,
a "grid" is always useful.
Regardless of how the bulletin board is set up (an empty wall, a highly
structured grid with spaces measured out so an issue poster will neatly
fit into it, etc.)a "grid" will emerge, more or less selforganized.
There may be no bulletin board in the tradit
Sorry Peggy, just now I have see your response to Elisabeth. All fine and
thanks you very much.

Dear Peggy:
Im sad. When I go to your links that you reported below, this is the
message that appears:
Veoh is no longer available in CHILE. If you are not in CHILE or think you

Do you know why?

I'd like to add a couple of points:
1) Why have a "rule" about this? Different events call for different
mechanics.
2) From what I've seen, BarCamps have a grid and no Post-its.
At the BarCamp I was part of, it never occurred to the organisers that they
could add another column to the grid and t

Well Jack - No rules, near as I can tell, but it is always good to talk
about effectiveness and workability. And in the case of grids I have always
found them not all that effective and marginally workable. Your point about
the BarCamps makes the case I think. ("At the BarCamp I was part of, it

Dear All,
With Open Space being a fertile ground for story I thought you might be
interested in hearing of this conference.

I've used the grid almost exclusively, working with a predominantly
technical audience. At one OS, someone else facilitated when I wasn't
available, and went gridless. The feedback I got was that the
attendees missed the grid.
Which doesn't say that grid is better, just that it works well
The only "grid" I use is the one I put the post-its on. I prefer the free
form posting of topics on the wall, and maybe some splitting of Day 1 and
Day 2. For me, the chaos at the wall is intentional and if its not there,
then the benefits of being at the "edge of chaos" are not achieved. People

I have mostly created grids using making tape which certainly looks more
like a 'standard' agenda - rows for time slots and columns for places. That
is their main value I think...
However I have experienced several difficulties:
1) Merging and combining discussions becomes a bit constrained

I've done it every which way, depending on the size of the event,
timeframes and the group itself. If the group is small enough, I like
to do the grid with the post-its on it.
At the 2005 Girl Scout convention, I was worried that with nearly
2,000 participants, it would take too much time
Actually the "grid" is a late arrival inflicted upon us by those with an
orderly mind. Personally I never use one (grid) which probably says an
enormous amount about my mental state. It is true that participants will
occasionally offer to straighten out the mess (put everything in time slots,
etc.)
