Many thanks, wonderful Dicky, and a pleasure to meet you, Ms. Buijs.
I have indeed sent this lovely invitation for conversation to the
client I am talking with - and will send you a note directly about
that, Dicky and Ms. Buijs.
A deep bow to you both for your wonderful support of my client in
their exploration about using Open Space,
Lisa

Subject: [OSList] After the OS event
Hi, folks - just another request, as I have not yet heard from anyone.
If you have a client (especially a business / corporate client) that
might be happy to chat with a client of mine about how they
integrated the information / learning / achievements from an OS
meeting or retreat into the work of the organization **after** the
dialogue meeting (OS or otherwise) - thank you for sending me an
email with either that direct contact information or a few lines you
write describing that.
Then I can share that with this particular client.
Many thanks. You can send this to me directly at [email protected]
Of course, I have also described to this client that thinking about
how to sustain the ideas and momentum of the OS (or any other
dialogue) event is an essential thing to talk about (design, create
mechanisms for) in this pre-work stage. So I am delighted that she
is asking for more ideas about this. Other clients I have had
trained different levels of staff in convening meetings and groups
post-event, trained their members how to apply for funding, sent out
'news flashes' to show the full group / system what is happening
across the system post-event, and more. All ways of showing the
system back to itself - all ways of sustaining and growing capacity
and feeding information back into the system for continuous
learning. This has been true amongst my 'dream clients' whether for
Open Space or other work where people gather together for projects,
retreats and working groups.
And here is a little present - an experience I had with a client who
fully understood how to support sustainability after an OS (or any
retreat / working meeting) event...
Enjoy,
Lisa
