Welcome Evan Just finished a 2-day OS-meeting with 260 managers of a large organization here in Sweden. OST is magic!
Looking forward to learning with you All the best Thomas Herrmann Från: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] För Evan Walsh Skickat: den 5 november 2012 22:16 Till: OSLIST Ämne: [OSList] Introduction from a new subscriber Hello OSLIST, Having read through your wonderful FAQ (thanks for compiling), I noted that one of the things people appreciate are introductions from new subscribers. So that is what this is. My name is Evan Walsh and I work full time for Engineers Without Borders Canada. As part of my role in Chapter Development I seem to do a great deal of facilitation. We run and assist others in running a great number of retreats, meetings, conferences, and off-sites throughout the year. From time to time we will include an hour or two of "Open Space". I've always enjoyed this approach but never found it as satisfying as I imagined it could be. This lead me to do some more research about Open Space. I learned that we weren't giving Open Space enough time or space to work effectively. I also learned that I am in love with the philosophy and approach that underlies Open Space. I am incredibly excited to learn more about Open Space and eventually become acquainted with facilitating it properly. I not only feel it will be valuable to my organization, helping it meet its objectives, but I'm also excited about spreading the philosophy of self-organization, and deepening my participation in the sharing and learning about this exciting way of being/living/thinking/feeling. I've just completed Harrison Owen's User Guide and am working through the "Non-Guide" (which lead me to this list today). I'm excited to join in on the conversation and hope to soak up as much learning from this community as I can.
