Ämne: [OSList] Scrum Beyond Software - You're invited!

Hello "Everyone"!

This is a special invitation. Colleagues among colleagues.

For decades, we have collaborated with our IT Agile and Scrum pals. At their 
conferences and in their work, many have used and incorporated Open Space 
Technology. Our values, goals and purpose are deeply aligned. Self-organization 
at the heart of it.

Twelve years ago, Harrison Owen facilitated Open Space on the closing day of a 
3-day Scrum Alliance conference in Orlando. Its theme: “Scrumming Forward”.  It 
was dynamite. About 350 people attended. I was there helping in the newsroom. 
Tobias Mayer, who many of you know, was our lead contact.

That gathering became the seminal inspiration for a two-day Open Space on 
“Scrum Beyond Software”, held in Phoenix Arizona in September 2010. It was 
preceded by a one-day of Scrum training led by Lyssa Adkins and Gerry Kirk.

The convening theme of the Open Space then was:  How can we apply Scrum outside 
of software development, in the broader world of work, in community, in 
science, education and so many other sectors? Indeed life?

A diverse group of 40-50 trailblazers, most from technology with about a dozen 
from other sectors, had spirited discussions on the topic. It was life-changing 
and earth-shattering for many, including me. It’s as if we were peering into 
the possibilities of the future. I deepened my knowledge of Scrum and made many 
lifelong friends along the way.

Today the idea of Scrum and Agile beyond Software has gone mainstream. Big 
time. Though there is much to expand and deepen if we are to live the 
philosophy and ways of working that Agile and Scrum invite. In much the same 
way that Open Space is also a lifelong practice.

On September 24-25, Tobias and friends convened a “World in Twenty-Four Hours” 
virtual gathering<https://tobiasmayer.uk/events/beyond> to explore the depth 
and edges of this same theme. Many from the original group in Arizona have 
indicated they will attend. It will be in Open Space. Francois Knuchel and I 
will facilitate.

I am beyond excited about this event and hope many in our Open Space community 
will consider joining us. Please feel free to invite others.

Have a great day,
