For those interested, here is the session abstract for the session
SCALING AGILE WITH OPEN SPACE at Agile2015 on Friday, August 7.
I plan to explain how Open Space can and will trigger, almost
immediately, much higher levels of engagement...
...and the secret sauce....SELF ORGANIZATION...

*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.
*Learning Outcomes:*
* Learn how to apply Open Space for ensuring effective Agile adoptions
* Understand how to bring executives into the self-managed world of
Agile and Open Space
* Gain knowledge of at least 7 experience reports detailing various
approaches, tools and techniques

Greetings All,
I've been a little too quiet lately...been working "like a rented
mule" to complete a total renaming/rebranding of Open Agile Adoption.
(We needed to change the name due to a collision with another existing
trademark, so we did.)
The new name is OPENSPACE AGILITY (two words) and the all-new web is:
http://OpenSpaceAgility.com
The entire aim of OpenSpace Agility (OSA) is to show client
organizations how to save time, effort, heartache, and money inside
their Agile adoptions.
How? By employing Open Space to improve FAST....by triggering and
igniting the true source of high performance, which is:
SELF ORGANIZATION
Some highlights of this web site include:
OSA BIG PICTURE DIAGRAM. It has 42++ clickable sections, click a
section to investigate the story behind it...take a look!

TESTIMONIAL VIDEOS: Executives and team members from places like
INTUIT, ASCAP, etc...

whatsoever...

I invite your feedback!!
I am asking for help:
* Will you please post the link http://OpenSpaceAgility.com to your
Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and other social media, send others
over to investigate?
* Will you send me any typos, broken links etc (send me the URL and
the item you find?)
Large organizations with very slow-to-move cultures are using this
method to get movement. And they are GETTING IT.
To date, the largest Open Space events arranged in client-orgs using
this method had opening-circle seating for over 400++.
The Agile community is beginning to really embrace this.
We have been invited to join the AGILE COACH CAMP USA in DC July
31-Aug2, and give a 1/2 workshop following that event.
everal of us from here are attending that ACC/DC event!
We will also be teaching Open Space and OSA at the Agile conference
Aug 3-7.
All in all, not too bad. Things are moving!
