Thanks Chris and others for bringing PNI to this list. It fits perfectly in two training programs on collaborative action research I am providing. I have ordered the book by Cynthia. WHat I have read on her website already gives me more words and pictures to working with stories such as in Story Bridge. I will start next week with two PNI sessions. By the way, two weeks ago I had the honour to facilitate a one-day Open Space on the tasks and organisation of the Dutch Fire Brigade. A planning day after a one-day Future Search with about 70 participants, where we collected trends and image of the future in 2030. What surprised me that olmost no one had even heard of Open Space. And they were surprised how well it worked and how easily new relationships were built. So, we have more work to do in the Netherlands.

I can use this format next week with a group of middle school students who are doing a fishbowl (virtually) with our senior leadership teams from across North America. They can model it for the districts, who can take it back and use if with their participatory narrative “street data” processes.

In the example, an animating theme is "how to get a bunch of perspectives from throughout a company on a new phase in a company’s evolution."And the questions he suggests for participants on a Google form: "share a story of something that happened lately that made you think: ‘we need to address this issue…'” Get everyone in the organization to enter one story, a few sentences. On the form then ask them a) how common do you think this is in our organization and b) what is one thing we could do to address that issue?" As you see it's a way to harvest stories than can inform a next conversation about the past-present-future. (In open space?)Something like this could be adapted for a basic inquiry of our OS community of practice. If there is a lively theme to propose! https://www.chriscorrigan.com/parkinglot/very-basic-story-gathering/- JeffOn Wed, Oct 27, 2021, 12:58 PM Harrison Owen SR via OSList <oslist@lists.openspacetech.org> wrote:OS in Schools is wonderful. Even a long time ago (25 YEARS?) A school up in Seattle basically bookended its year. Opened with 2 days on the question "what are we going to do?" and closed with 2 days - "what have we done?" Everybody came -- students, teachers, parents, cooks, janitors -- everybody.

We (the Deeper Learning Dozen, working with senior leaders in school districts across North America) see this process as deeply connected to our efforts to get school districts to engage meaningfully with their most marginalized students and families, and PNI is a really great process for that, especially in valuing stories as evidence of learning, what works and doesn’t work for kids and families, and what they see as needed changes. We see it as really well aligned with our colleagues, Shane Safir and Jamila Dugan, in their new book, Street Data: A next generation model for equity, pedagogy, and school transformation. Thanks for posting!John WatkinsOakland, CAOn Oct 26, 2021, at 6:37 PM, Jeff Aitken via OSList <oslist@lists.openspacetech.org> wrote:I looked into "the method" with Chris not so long ago. It can be relatively simple actually. A few good questions are agreed upon: Questions that invite stories of experiences from members of the community (like our OS community of practice.) There is attention to crafting a short menu of questions that can bring out a story. Each person can then choose which question to answer. There is software that will collect the responses, and then it can help to arrange a round of "making sense" of the stories that are gathered. As an American I have interest in stories of Open Space helping people in a town or city toward (or return to) a sense of mutual love for the place, and mutual aid for one another. As just one timely example. There was interest in stories of OS as a practice of peace, also timely. Cynthia Kurtz write the book Participatory Narrative Inquiry and the software Narrafirma with colleagues.

There aren't any. This list is self-organized and self-moderated. If things go well, I am hoping to get the OSList migrated to Mailman 3.0 soon. It will help with some of the bounce problems, but it won't make any difference to the self-organization of this conversation. You might make a difference though. I believe you already have. Thank you for that, Mark!
