This is awesome! I have questions:
0/ I looked on AMAZON for the English version. Did not find it. Do you
have guidance on how to buy a copy on AMAZON en anglais? I want to buy
the English version on AMAZON or get an English PDF download.
1/ Did the OST events held periodically occur on regular scheduled
intervals, or were they ad-hoc as needed, or some combination of these
approaches?
I'm a fan of a regular recurring OST event as a predictable, reliable,
trust-building, recurring holiday on the cultural calendar of the tribe.
This is how Open Agile Adoption (www.OpenAgileAdoption.com) sidesteps
the problem of the champion leaving the company. Often in Agile
adoptions, this vacating by the champion is a recipe for failure. They
exit, poof! it's over.
The cultural holiday on the calendar decouples the open culture/OST from
an one leader and makes it part of the culture instead of part of any 1
person's visions and plans.

Dear Dan,
in my "real" world there is at least one documented example thats been
going on for 13 years now that appears to be pretty much what you see
in an "ideal" world.
Its been written up in German and brought into english, polish,
french, spanish and chinese versions, all six versions in one ebook.
Look here
Practicing Open Space - E-book
Our first ten years
http://www.westkreuz-verlag.de/de/Kommunikation
also available via amazon
Here is how it is announced in the online shop of the publisher
It is no longer a secret that Open Space events are pure joy.
Set up in a jiffy, these events turn the traditional way of working
and leading upside down. And in regard to productivity and action
orientation there is nothing better under the sun. How do we know?
Well, we have worked with Open Space Technology for decades now and
seen the effects.
Thanks to Hans-Georg Wicke and the National Agency Youth in Germany,
we now have a detailed report on what happens if you go beyond one
solitary, stand-alone Open Space event. He describes the sustained
transformation of working and living in the organization as Open Space
Technology is used over a decade, several times a year, invading every
nook and cranny of the Agency.
As dictated structure, external control and traditional leading are
reduced, selforganisation can more freely unfold, bringing into play
the vast resources of everyone involved in the Agency. Without
consulting firms that cost a lot of money and have no lasting effect,
organizations evolve resilient structures and processes that equip
them to navigate in a sea of constant change. And they do this on
their own.
We invite you to read this slim report if you are searching for a
truly productive workplace in which everyone happily invests in
cooperation and joint leadership… in hospitals, IT-businesses,
foundations, unions, industrial production plants, NGOs… in any
business and organization.
And: Be Prepared to be Surprised.
Greetings from Berlin

"Leadership" identifies and clarifies the direction to move in.
"Management" makes a plan to get movement & momentum in that direction.
In an ideal world, the open space provides all the Leadership (self
organized) and all the Management (self organized) that is needed.
In the real world, the open space is seldom allowed to provide either.
Well, OK then: Let's just give it a little time...the pace of change is
unrelenting.
There is a trend, there is a wave...we are on it.
There is nothing for us to do.
