Greetings All,
I am asking for help.
I've proposed a session for Agile2015 called "Scaling Agile with
Open Space". You can see it below.
If you like this idea of using Open Space inside Agile adoptions,
and want to see this idea spread, your positive support for it in
the form of a brief online comment /can help tremendously now/...
...the Agile conference gets 1500 participants. These folks go back
home and try stuff based on what they hear during the conference.
Adding a comment might take 5 minutes....
.../special thanks/ to those who have commented already! (Suzanne
Daigle!! Harold Shinsato!! )
SCALING AGILE WITH OPEN SPACE
Goal:
* Effectively spread the idea that "rapid and lasting Agile
adoptions can be achieved with the help of Open Space".
Rules:
* It is unclear when the ability to comment ends, so time is of

*Room Setup: *Rounds *Duration: *75 minutes
*Keywords: *openSpace, Enterprise Agile
*Abstract:*
Open Space gatherings arranged inside organizations are totally
unlike the Open Space events you may be familiar with during public
conferences. As described in the book SPIRIT from Harrison Owen,
Open Space is actually designed to enable development and
transformations in organizations. This session is about how to
leverage Open Space to scale Agile across the enterprise.
At the root of effective Agile is the self-managed team...a
self-organizing system. At the core of Open Space is the power of
self-organization. In this sense, effective Agile adoptions and Open
Space are very, very similar.
During this session I will present narratives, pictures, videos and
testimony from C-level people as well as team members. Each will
describe how Open Space inside their Agile adoption literally
changed their lives. Of particular interest are the stories
executives tell about how they learned to let go and trust their
people to provide everything the Agile adoption needed to succeed at
scale.

yes to open space
Open Space Technology is an ideal process for agile
transformations, and Daniel has been making some great headway
in learning how to apply it to great effect. Hope this makes it
to the program.

Open Space and Agile
Dan Mezick is doing some trailblazing work combining Open Space
with Agile. Open Space encompasses the principles of the Agile
Manifesto and with its light yet robust structure, it is
bringing people together in ways that allow people to fully
engaged individually and collectively in the transition and
adoption of Agile across the enterprise. It helps jumpstart a
deeper and shared understanding of Agile that is leading to
highly successful implementation outcomes. The results to date
are compelling.

Open Space
Daniel is able to communicate both the science and art
associated with Open Space which is critically important. The
concept of bringing everyone together to work collectively to
solve a problem seems easy enough, but it is the science of the
interaction, the room set-up, the pre-work, and the "what next"
that Daniel articulates very well. Should be an awesome session.
