Hello All, I have been on this list and be interested in OST for many years. Yet I have never (until now) taken the opportunity to develop this interest further and actually participate and be involved with OST events. I am currently in a professional transition from being a manager in a large engineering firm to becoming self employed project manager with a view to help build collective intelligence in organisations through innovative organisational structures (e.g. holacracy) and various practices such as OST. I would like to learn and experience more and I have been told before that the best and only way to learn about OST is to experience it first hand. That makes a lot of sense and I think that this would be a great eye opener for me as well as a growing opportunity. Therefore I am contemplating participating in the next OSonOS in Bilbao (I live in the south of France) but I want to make sure that this is appropriate for someone who want to get initiated in OST. Thanks in advance for your comments and / or advice. Regads,
