 The OST-7 Game
 
 
 The Goal:
 Get a collective idea of how many people here have actually Facilitated 7 or 
 more OST events in their lifetime. Put another way: what is the depth of 
 practical OST facilitation experience across the entire membership?
 
 The Rules:
 If you have Facilitated at least 7 OST events, consider replying with hey 
 ... or optionally, with absolutely anything else you might like to say, for 
 example: where you are located, last time you did one, your hair color, etc
 
 Tracking Progress:
 Watch the thread to track progress, by: # of replies, # of countries, # of 
 OST events, replies per unit of time, # of people with red hair, or 
 absolutely any other measures you like
 
 Play:
 100% optional. Play if you like. If you've done more 7 or more and prefer to 
 just watch the game, that's OK too.

Hej Jan!
Great that you came out of  the ”lurking area” - I’ll say - Just go for it - 
and if you want - just give me a call or an e-mail, and I will try to help you 
out in whatever way you need to get your dream going! As I’m from Sweden as 
well you’ll see below :-)

Looking forward to hear from you!
:o)
Eva

 François - I'm also a lurker, an introvert, and, in addition, an Open Space 
 newbie.
 
 I'll for sure take a closer look at what Daniel is doing! I'd also love to 
 hear more about what you and Martin are doing.
 
 Following this community has inspired me to start taking small baby steps in 
 opening space. I've also started to dream BIG. There's a full day 'strategy' 
 event at my company which is repeated every six months, and where everyone is 
 invited. It's run in the traditional way with a prepared agenda and all 
 that... I am supposed to 'facilitate' the event. I'll do it first time in 
 April.
 
 My dream would be to Open the Space, but I'm not sure how to get there. I 
 guess my questions are: Has anyone on this list used Open Spaces as a 'heart 
 beat' in their organizations? How did you get started? What are your 
 experiences?
 
 Thanks,
 Jan Höglund

Re: [OSList] Do I need therapy for my OST control attitude ?

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Chris
Smiling when I read ”you need to go to therapy for your need of control” :-) An 
Open Space facilitator ;-)
Reminds me of an Open Space some years ago - a ”citizens dialog” around  the 
city of Stockholm needed to build more place where people can live. It was in 
an area where it was known that there was heavily resistans to the plans of 
building. Well, the space was open, I went back to my chair and one man came up 
to me and wanted to have the microphone to speak first…. I said - ”You are 
welcome to raise your topic as anyone else” he looked angrily at me and said 
”SO! you are violating the democratic process And I thought with concerns - 
am I really doing that perhaps? Since I at that time had no experience in what 
we in Sweden call ”samråd” - i.e you have to involve people in the decisions 
making process. So I was thinking that may be that was what we did? - but I 
just had that thought going through my head for a milli second because the next 
thing the man said to me was ”And besides you can’t speak Swedish!! —> I’m from 
the south part of Sweden and do not have the accent they speak in Stockholm :-) 
So then I realized that he just wanted to be angry :-)

Of course the OST went well, he was still there until the end and the group 
wonderfully handled his antagonism and he was not able to infect the others :-)
Trust the process
:o)

Re: [OSList] a substantial difference

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Hi Birgitt and al,
great distinction, I so often experience that there are great engagement in an 
Open Space Technology meeting and also in the follow up meeting afterwards but 
when it comes to action planning people suddenly start to look down, the voices 
becomes more silent etc and it’s difficult to get the energy for actions.
I will here after talk about both participation and engagement and what that 
means for the participants and the sponsors.
:o)
Eva

Re: [OSList] NOSonOS 2016

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Hi Gail,
Me too have wonderful memories of you spending some time with us in Gustavs 
room and exploring Gothenburg. Can you imagine - next week he will move to 
Linköping to start his study at the University  - where did those years go I 
wonder !
Thomas will come back and tell more about the storytelling - he is in charge of 
that ;-)
I will think of you as you are with us in spirit during the days!
Big hug
:o)
Eva

Re: [OSList] Renewing the Mission of the Open Space Institute U.S.

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Hi 
I will add that it takes a life time for some to unlearn what consultants 
mostly do - intervene, stand on the ”scene” i.e to unlearn that you as a 
facilitator is not the most important people in the room. That you have made a 
great job when the participants say ” wow” we did this ourselves!”
:o)

Re: [OSList] Twist

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

..and it's also wrong-it says that "facilitators lead and record the resulting 
discussions."..

I wonder how and if you can correct articles like this?
Cheers from Sweden

[OSList] What's the difference between BarCamp and OST?

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Dear friends,
Today I heard a woman talking about setting up a meeting using BarCamp as a 
method. I asked her to explain to me what it was and when she did that I had a 
hard time finding the differences between that and Open Space. One thing was 
that, as she explained it, the time slots were 45 minutes then 15 minutes pause 
then new 45 minutes and so on. Otherwise it seemed more or less like copy and 
paste from Open Space. Anyone who knows more about it?
:o)

Re: [OSList] What's the difference between BarCamp and OST?

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Martin,
I smile when I read your text - I can almost feel your irritation over 
comparing OST with Barcamp :-)
Thank you all who had answered - I now think that I will not ever say that it’s 
like OST, but that they had borrowed a few thing but got them backwards…(oops)
:o)

Re: [OSList] OST facilitation technique: too prescriptive?

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

HI all,
When  I remember :-) I use to say something like ”please return to your seat 
after posting your topic because there may be more topics coming up that will 
give you ideas of new topics to put up”
And as Thomas said when I sense that the energy for putting up topics is coming 
to an end I also say that and also ”but we will wait a little bit because maybe 
there are some people who is preparing themselves for putting up something” And 
I promise - there is always one or two who step into the circle and announce 
their topics.
Cheers
:o)
Eva

Re: [OSList] Hope Never Dies!

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Don’t call it Open Space  if it’s not Open space!!

Another thing.. I visited my first ”Bar camp” a week ago. Oh my how frustrated 
I was with the control! Imagine that we had to stand up and  tell our name and 
two topic that we would like to talk about (without any obligation to bring 
them up). After that the ones who wanted to raise a topic - stod up and read 
what s/he wanted to talk about in the 45 min breakout sessions. Then we were 
asked to raise our hands if we thought that topic was a good idea  - and not if 
it’ wasn’t… Just imagine standing up front of all participants with a topic and 
no one raised their hand…!
Nothing was said about how to collect the recordings so there was a big 
confusion about that. Every breakout session was 45 min and when the time was 
out - the ”facilitator” came in the different rooms and announced that the time 
was over…
And of course no circles , just tables. Can you imagine me as being an Open 
Space ”fundamentalist” being oh so much frustrated…
Oh my - what an interesting experience …
Hugs
:o)

Re: [OSList] Hope Never Dies!

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Ha ha,
well you know Birgitt - I learned a lot about myself and my love for an 
inviting environment, for letting people take responsibility, to have the 
freedom to talk as long as there was energy, how difficult it is with tables 
and more :-)
Hugs back
:o)

[OSList] canadian tables

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Hi all,
Long time no see or post from me - but I really need to say that for the first 
time since about 20 years with Open Space I had the chance to use ”Canadian 
tables” when I worked at the Royal Opera house in Stockholm - and you could 
tell that there was NO way to put tape on the walls. Worked great of course :-)
hugs
Eva

Re: [OSList] Greetings from Sweden

[Eva P Svensson via OSList]

Dear Harrison,
I echo Thomas in his wishes from Sweden, I’m so thankful that you “discovered” 
Open Space as you use to say.
Thanks for my favorite way of “working” - haven’t reached the stadium where I 
go and take a nap- but not so far apart...
Lots of love and hugs
Eva P
