News from Taiwan

[ICA Taiwan]

New Years Greetings to you all.  And many thanks for the plethora of
recent diverse and thought-provoking questions and contributions on
the listserv that I have shared with my Taiwanese colleagues, helping
us ground the profundity of Open Space work.

OS is indeed alive, well and spreading in Taiwan.  We had our third
2-day training in December, especially powerful because of the
seriousness and practicality of it.  We had 3 perspective and 1
previous client organizations represented, so day 2 we had real
situations to work with.  In small teams participants were able to do
actual sponsor interviews, design themes and work out practical
arrangements as well as practice opening space.  One of those - a
2-day program - has already been done successfully, guided by a new
facilitator and we're getting ready for the next.  Another
participant reports she has done several programs within her company.
We now have 7 or 8 people actively advocating and/or facilitating OS
programs on their own.  And we're eagerly awaiting whatever and when
ever the next surprise!
