I also as a rule have the whole agenda made on day I, providing an
opportunity thereafter to add/change/remove.
However if I only have one and a half day, (or a lunch-to lunch
meeting), I only ask for topics for day one on the first day,
and then on day 2 ask to add the most important topics that are missing
(which as a rule produces a couple, sometimes
topics which were discusssed but not under that title.
I also find the method Michael Herman once suggested a good one, asking
participants to post those topics they would
like to take forward.

My experience is that not many or no new topics are raised on the
second day (I have always invited participants to post for both days
in multi-day events). Sometimes, when it was asked for, I´ve read what
topics are on the newswall.
How do you invite the morning of the second day? I combine it with
morning news without saying too much.
Best regards

Ämne: Re: evolving agendas
I always invite people to post issues for the duration of the OS all
on the first day – and then as Tree says, opportunity is briefly
provided on the 2nd morning to add, change, or remove issues. The
reason I think getting the whole thing up on the first day is useful
is that way everybody gets a good picture of the real estate, even if
it is going to change. If you post issues on a day by day basis, you
tend to get a whole mess on the first day and much less on the
second. Could lead to a frantic first day and a boring second.

Subject: Re: evolving agendas
During a multi-day open space, there is a morning circle on each
successive day, Frank. The OS facilitator reviews the principles and
the law and opens the marketplace anew each morning. At that point,
people can create an entirely new agenda or they can add new
topics/sessions. Sometimes people decide to cancel a session they
had posted previously on or they decide to continue sessions that
were juicy from the first day. It's open space.
You are right, Frank, conversations that happen on the first day
could -- and often do -- alter what people think is important to talk
about on following days.

My friend and I were just discussing the merrits of creating the
agenda on a day by day basis vs creating the whole agenda for an
event on the first day. The idea was that the conversations that
happen on the first day could radically alter what people think is
important to talk about on following days. Any thoughts or
experiences?
Peace,
