Re: [OSList] Follow-Up and Flow in Open Space

I love the weave of the practical -- client expectations about outcomes -- and the philosophic -- the nature of time -- that informs it. I have a thought on each of them. On the nature of time, I recall Harrison using a term when I first ran into Open Space in 1994 to describe how we experienc

[OSList] Electronic Open Space

Ever since it seems like we have been trying to set Open Space to Electrons. Or at the very least do what might be called, Electronic Open Space. The first formal entry was Gabriel Ender with a program that is running just fine, so far as I know. And her effort has been added too by several illustr

Re: [OSList] Open Space in Regional Programs (Retitled)

Hi Kari,   To me, the key to scaling a notion or an effort such as Creative New Jersey is to teach people how to fish. After the initial state-wide OS convening, which Suzanne and I helped design and train, the mission of "revitalizing NJ through creativity" is now being carried on by the clien

A very small bit of a reply to your large question... I've worked with local government in the UK over the years. Government is very document and formal meeting-led. Meetings tend to be bureaucratic and very agenda-based and yet, in many meeitngs I've facilitated, the agenda is often departed from

Kari -- I think you may have initiated another needed conversation, and if so -- then my "re-title" makes sense. Open Space in regional programs has in fact been an ongoing occupation. It may be that there has developed some common experience that could be usefully shared. I think particularly of C
