Hello, all - I just want to share how much I appreciate the archives and how I have used the archives to help others interested in learning about Open Space, while at the same time being able to illustrate that there are many voices and experiences from around this little globe of ours. (By the way, for anyone who has missed how to access the archives, look down at the bottom of everybody's messages posted to OSLIST and it will tell you) I have been humbled and inspired by swimming back into the little streams and rivulets of conversations we have shared with each other.
These are papers I built from researching in the archives and excerpting quotes. Then I asked each person I quoted if I could have their permission to use them on my website for all to see and share and use as may help anyone. How Facilitators Describe Open Space Technology http://www.openingspace.net/openSpaceTechnology_method_facilitatorDescri ption.shtml What Clients and Participants Say About Open Space Technology http://www.openingspace.net/openSpaceTechnology_method_WhatClientsAndPar ticipantsSay.shtml and various worksheets and planning materials, such as: Choosing a Room for an Open Space Event http://www.openingspace.net/openSpaceTechnology_method_resources_choosin gAroom.shtml The first two (because of their style) especially show to me a glimpse into our multi-voice, multi-culture, multi-skilled and rich community. Please use these for talking with clients or others about Open Space if you like - that's what they are there for. I have more papers like this at my website, (see http://www.openingspace.net <http://www.openingspace.net/> ). There are more papers in my 'almost ready' file, and I look forward to sharing them with you all. Of course I shall continue to ask permission of all the people whose jewel-like words I would like to include. I am hoping that our archive continues to exist and continues to hold such nutrition for future learning from one another. Warmly, Lisa ________________________________ L i s a H e f t Consultant, Facilitator, Educator O p e n i n g S p a c e 2325 Oregon Berkeley, California 94705-1106 USA +01 510 548-8449 <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] www.openingspace.net * * ========================================================== [email protected] ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of [email protected], Visit: http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html
