Re: [OSList] Thank You

[Jake Yeager via OSList]

Hey Anna Caroline,

My responses are below:

*If the new team is there to bring a new way of working to the company - I
am curious what their their burning question would have been?*

Me too. :) There seemed to be significant energy around communication and
governance.

*And whom they would have liked to invite to the Open Space? *

They may have been interested in inviting others from their group and other
groups whom they work with. We are exploring holding a larger Open Space to
do just that.

*I am also wondering if the AVP is aware of the leadership approach s/he is
communicating implicitly, by deciding on this theme alone last minute? Is
this a definition of agile?! *

Haha, yeah I wonder! And I do not think that this is in the Agile
Manifesto. :)

*In your role as organizational development consultant, how can you support
the leaders of your company to reflect and adjust their leadership approach
if wanted?*

We also offer coaching services to leaders in the organization. I am also
proposing to the AVP that his group operate in "continuous" Open Space.

Hope this helps answer your questions.

Much love,
Jake

Hi everyone,

Does anyone have a sample opening script for an Open Space without time
slots?

Thanks!

All the best,

Re: [OSList] Who Opens the Space?

[Royle, Karl via OSList]

I know I might have mentioned this before... but...

Deleuze and Guttari’s (1987) notion of smooth (nomad) and striated (state) 
spaces is useful for thinking about the effect of pedagogies such as PBL on an 
institution’s instructional norms. Bayne (2004) puts it most succinctly: 
“Smooth space is informal and amorphous, striated space is formal and 
structured. Striated space is associated with arboreal, hierarchical thought, … 
opposed to rhizomatic thought – non-hierarchical, underground, 
multiply-connected. “(Bayne 2004, p. 303)

I appreciate the effort and love of the facilitator of the Open Space

I appreciate the role of the sponsor is opening the space within the

smaller space...Both are fine so long as there is honesty about the amount of

Re: [OSList] Who Opens the Space?

[Tonnie van der Zouwen via OSList]

Dear Birgitt,


I agree, it is my choice to show up or use my two feet to go somewhere  else. 
Still, this seems to me a rather individualistic view. Some thoughts. Maybe 
participants open spaces for each other, inviting (or not) each other. I think 
it is a social process, weaving a complex web of relationships. The 
facilitator, the room set up  and the way participants are invited, before and 
during the meeting, are cruciual preconditions in nursing the development of 
that social web. And then be prepared to be surprised.




All the best,


Tonnie

Yes. And it could be space is already open (yours, mine, ours). We just have to 
be reminded. Maybe that’s what the facilitator “does?”

Re: [OSList] Who Opens the Space?

[Daniel Mezick via OSList]

Birgitt, 

OK. If your hypothesis is correct, that people "self-open," or "self-modulate 
opening," and that is what happens, then: maybe it is a suboptimal idea to 
explain it. 

Perhaps there is nothing to do in this spot. One less thing to do?

Explanations auto-engage conscious mind, which is where critical judgement 
resides. 

According to this theory, just doing it (OST) is superior to over-explaining 
it. 

Especially if much of what goes on in OST is beyond full awareness of conscious 
mind.
