Hello everyone, I got such great feedback last time I tried this, I’m giving it a second try… thanks in advance.
I have been asked to facilitate a small group of just 10 people in a pilot test of a short Open Space of just two hours. I tried to get more time, but that’s all the boss felt comfortable with. It’s already scheduled for this coming Wednesday the 28th – that’s in 6 days, gulp! The purpose is to gather their input for an initial training needs assessment. The 10 people are all from the same division within my company – but not my division. I will facilitate it – my first time facilitating an Open Space. The invitation to them and agenda I’ve drafted are below…. Any reactions, words of advice, wisdom, tips, etc? Invitation I plan to send to the invitees tomorrow… What training matters to you? What is urgent now? Come join us for a fun and provocative gathering on Wednesday, December 28th 2:00 - 4:00 PM to discuss these questions. Held in the large conference room – 7th floor. No need to bring or prepare anything – just yourself and an open mind! By the end of this gathering…. · Every issue of concern to anybody will have been raised, if they took responsibility for doing that. · All issues will have received full discussion, to the extent desired. And just a day or two later, the issues and discussions will be documented and in the hands of all participants. And from here down is my own preparation… Draft Schedule 2:00 - 2:30: Opening Circle / Create agenda / Marketplace (with 2 timeslots, 3 locations each) 2:30 - 3:00: Session 1 3:00 – 3:30: Session 2 3:30 - 4:00: Closing Circle Preparations Signs of: · 4 principles, · 1 law, · two questions, · time slots, · location of groups Graphics of: · bumblebee, · butterfly, Supplies: · Masking tape, · markers, · flip charts, · construction paper (for the agenda topics), · Blank template for notetakers: Title of session, Convener, List of participants, Discussion and recommendations Leslie S.
