[OSList] OST Training

My sense of OST training is that a min of 2 days, and preferably three is best. It's not so much about tranferring knowledge about the 'technicalities' but giving people an embodied experience of slowing down. Because Open Space is such a paradigm shift from business as usual, we can have people

Re: [OSList] OST Training

Dear Michael, Thank you for raising this inspiring point. I recognize the danger of limiting the time to absorb the spirit of self-organizing OST. For my next 3 day event in the Philipines, the client has requested a hybrid program using different modules every day. I figured to do OST on the t

Re: [OSList] OST Training

Hi, all - My workshop is a little different than some of yours because it visits a lot of elements in an arc of learning around the experience, the theme, examples of trusting the process and not intervening, using OS in different situations such as multiple-language or 3000+ person groups, explo

Hi Diane, Very helpful suggestions - thankyou. All the reasons you propose make perfect sense to me and I'll think about trying your approach for the next program and see what happens. The modelling aspect is important. And yet I wonder if that is part of the ambiguity that the facilitator ha

Hi Chris, I would be interested to know what the design of your workshop is. As you know the idea of "training" OST facilitators is an on-going discussion in our OST community! I have been sharing designs with Lisa Heft who calls hers an OST Learning Workshop. Attached is the timetable. Smiles

Yes to both Yaari and Gerardo. And I like to have a Q&A flip chart put up on the wall for questions as people think of them; then do a Q&A dialogue after the closing circle. Other participants often have great wisdom and insights to impart as well. Gail On Mon, Nov 25, 2013 at 4:56 PM, y

Exactly! We are but an instrument assisting the sponsor to open space for emergence. We set the stage for selforganization to happen with a bit more directed focus and bumblebees feel more empowered to flap their wings, stirring energy, creating disturbances and they also contribute with their

I am not at all sure what "we are". I wonder whether I can be sure what my focus as facilitator in the OST context is. So far, I felt my focus was to assist the sponsor in finding out whether an OST event is in order for whatever it is that he/she wants to do. The straightforward approach was
