Future Search

[Lenore Mewton]

HI Carla

thanks for your input- Future Search does seem more structured- and from what I've heard on this list- the simpler the (OS) the better. But, as I'm just learning OS- it caught my attention- and wondered practioner's perspectives.

Appreciate it!

  Hi Lenore

  We are doing with soem people in the netherlands a research and an article on Future Search and one on Open Space. There are many differences but to keep it simple.  If you want to know waht people really think, want, wish, go for use Open Space but hen your never know with what tey will come....  (it is often a concern of sponsors). Future Search is, I think a more structured process, you go form one predefine step to another. It will bring the participants sure to a common ground on what they want. As for Open Space you also get the diversity, the differences ans the disputes..... I think a three day Open space is more fun and gives a more complete picture. 
  my two cents

  Carla

  Hello All;

  I have an OS related question- I've only recently come across the Future Search process and training. While it has several components similar to OS and World Cafe- and perhaps other participative processes- I'm wondering if any uses this process- and if so, does it dovetail with OS? Do you use it differentially - in specific situations? One major difference that I see, initially, is the length of time for these workshops, 2-3 days.

  Thanks, in advance, for any thoughts/info. on this!

  Best Regards,

  Lenore
