Interesting opportunity. Having had the same sort... I can see no reason why your plan won't work. And, I have taken another approach. Hospitals run (as you know) 24/7. And there are points where the major shifts trade off. If you think about the "regular OS" -- the total "setup" is 1 1/2 hours -- So if you were to do that at "shift change" most everybody could "set the agenda" and then work it during their "time." Some folks would have to stay a little longer, and others come in a little early. In essence you make the whole hospital "open space." Meeting spaces happen wherever it is convenient (Nurses' Lounge, etc). Electronic documentation makes all discussions available to everybody. And if the documentation is less than complete, the folks are still in the "same" hospital and can call/see each other. A little different -- but in terms of the "new" Principle: "Wherever it happens is the right place," it is a piece of cake.

They have chosen to divide their employees in 2 groups as the hospital has to run all the time. The two events are separated by one day only but I will finish the documentation for the first 2 days, during the evening of that second day. We have not fully decided how to bridge the 2 events. I see no point in keeping what happened in the first event secret.so somehow bridging the 2 events is important I think. Any experiences and/or ideas you wish to share are appreciated. All the best Thomas Herrmann _______________________________________________ OSList mailing list To post send emails to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] To subscribe or manage your subscription click below: http://lists.openspacetech.org/listinfo.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org _______________________________________________ OSList mailing list To post send emails to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] To subscribe or manage your subscription click below: http://lists.openspacetech.org/listinfo.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org
