Priorization in short time

[Thomas Herrmann]

Dear friends in Open Space
I have an upcoming Open Space conference with 250 persons for a not full day
(8.30-15.00). I am working with management to get another day further down
the line to continue but that might not succeed. I don´t want to spend much
time on convergence if we only get this day. The theme is to be worked out
in a premeeting with the 20 or so managers, next week. I suspect that they
want quite some space in the theme why I hope to get more time.

I am thinking of trying to schedule two 1,15 hours timeslots and one
one-hour timeslot for sessions. We will need an hour for lunch and I hope we
can make the introduction and agendasetting in 45 mts. That leaves 1,15
hours for closing. Has anyone a suggestion for some kind of priorization
that is really fast, just to get a picture on what the hot topics are right
now. Sometimes, in one day OST´s I do this only out of the names of the
topics, without giving the chance to read. I would like to give everyone a
chance to talk in the closing so how will we manage that?
Any suggestions appreciated
Best regards
