Hello, dear colleagues in the Open Space Ning community !(NOTE: This particular announcement is for those of you facilitators who already use Open Space or have studied it deeply in a workshop or process-specific learning community setting - specifically this process, rather than something like it. As this announcement is not about a training or a workshop. Rather it is about a sort of user’s conference for people who already know the unseen-to-participants elements - the fundamental why’s and…See More

Lisa Heft replied to Tod Maffin's discussion Something's wrong with my theme. Isn't there?"I think that's a good evolution, Tod. You could even add 'what are our opportunities? what are our insights?' if you want to weave in the 'insight' value. Either way works well....

Profile Information
- How did you first learn about OST?
- I trained with Harrison Owen, the originator of Open Space Technology.
- What surprised you the most about this method?
- The way it reminds people how amazing they are, and the rich productivity, diversity and creativity it invites.
- How does Open Space fit into what you do with organizations and / or communities?
- I am an independent consultant, facilitator and educator with national and international clients, President of the Open Space Institute US Board, and a member of OSLIST. I specialize in Open Space and other interactive dialogic methods where participants frame their own experience, where one facilitator can work with a group of 20 or 2000+, and that work across country and culture. I use Open Space quite a bit (when it is the right tool for the job) - working with groups from very small to 2000+, and I also give workshops teaching the method.

Thanks Lisa. Looks like an interesting site. I am looking for a good facilitator for an OST meeting I am holding in February in DC for the US Department of Ed. I would like to find someone who has education experience as well as facilitating a meeting for a first-time government agency. They are excited and apprehensive about the format. It will be a one day OST with a group of ED grantees. Any recommendations on someone to help out? Thanks and I look forward to exploring your site. Kay

Tod Maffin said… Thanks so much for the welcome, Lisa. Have tried pitching OS to a client to have them use it as a way to help bring their organization into the digital age, serve its customers better, etc. Was interesting to see how much of a process it was to convince them — and they're still 'thinking' about the format. :-/

I am working with many projects with Indonesian youth here. I need to enrich my method in running the program smoothly. I can also knowing the people's sharing through this OST.
Thank you,

Thank you Lisa for the welcome. I've recently completed some Art of Hosting Training and did some Open Space training a few years ago. I have downloaded Harrison Owen's book from Amazon and am really looking forward to learning more and to using this in my work. Thanks. Tracey.

Bernd Nurnberger said… Thank you, Lisa, for the warm welcome. Agree, nothing beats F2F. On the other hand, all you need for business is sight and sound, because touch and smell rarely matter in business. Let me get my bearings in this forum as well.

Thank you, Lisa! My sister lives in SF and I would love to attend a workshop so I will keep this in mind. I have not seen any listings for workshops in Oregon or Washington; let me know if you are aware of any up here.

Tere Lisa! 'Tere' is a short version fro welcome in Estonian :) Thank you for your message and I'll definitely pass your regards to Mikk! In fact he referred me here. We started together the OS in Estonia by inviting Harrison Owen to Estonia in February 2003. So it will be 10 years anniversary next year.
