hello thomas, what if you reopened the space for...
'who will convene follow up meetings to continue the conversations started here?' ...or... 'what followup meetings are you willing to convene in order to continue what has been started here?' '...in the next ___ weeks...' '...using regular office conference rooms x, y, z...' (that could be block scheduled ahead of time) ...something like that, anyway, and ask them to propose topic, time, place and add their name. have them post the sessions, and then have signups for show of support. take no time to meet at all on these in this meeting, just to get the next weeks' agenda set up. compile that list and distribute by email, with request to post proceedings back to same place as orginal meeting notes would reside. this sort of thing might take only 15 or 20 minutes if there was some prewarning, and it's such an action-oriented thing that it's the kind of thing that might not stir much ire if the meeting ran a bit overtime because there was so much ongoing responsibility being taken up. my two cents. m Thomas Herrmann wrote: > Dear friends in Open Space > I have an upcoming Open Space conference with 250 persons for a not full day > (8.30-15.00).
