Dear Annamarie
I have done so, with 2 short sessions of 15 minutes, just as a
demonstration. However, I didn't get to work for that organisation.
So I wouldn't suggest doing it. One of the great qualities of OS lies in the
possibility of expanding in one's own time and energy. That can't be
Hi Annamarie
I had thought of doing something like this some years ago with a group who were
exploring alternative meeting forms. We had thought that rather than see each
meeting as an event we could run an 'event' over a number of months. They
worked on a focus for about 6 months so the theme

I just led an open space in 60 minutes, and

The group was 20 government-contractor engineers, systems thinkers and

Welcome back to everybody! For whatever it is worth I find that opening
space(s), even small ones, is/are better than just about anything -- with
one proviso. "Demonstrating" Open Space is a non-starter. The "process" is
so simple, to say nothing of its 13.7 year history, that it "always" works
