Hi Eric! I¹m also one of the 30 000 participants in this MOOC. It would be great to hear more about your reflections on Open Space and Theory U after the course is over in March. I¹d be glad to host a virtual meeting on this and if anyone else took part in the course, feel free to join.
The question I¹m sitting with right now is on how to deal with complexity in working with people/communities/organisations² and the different answers/stories given by different ³theories² and people. On my way to somewhere...
