SV: OSONOS by the Sea/NO SPACE

[Thomas Herrmann]

Good to hear you had a great time by the sea! Looking forward to reading
about what was up. I´m in the train, on my way to an OS-meeting and have a
bit odd feeling about it. This came really fast on and the pre-meeting was
interrupted by some participants arriving late and having to finish
earlier - so things were kind of hanging out there a bit. Now one of the
top-managers called me as a response to an email I sent them yesterday
regarding my concern about how much space they really wished to open - if
any!
Well, they seem a bit worried and want to use the OS-meeting to get input
for management to take decisions on the future organization. No space to
work further after this meeting. So I guess we´´ll have to figure out
something else to do in the morning day 2, than the actionplanning which was
in the proposal they accepted! Any experiences like this out there??

I´ll team up with my collegue Marianne who will facilitate day 2 and we´ll
also be able to speak some more with the middlemanagers of the organization
tonight, which I suspect are the ones most worried. Friday I am busy with
another actionplanning session - in an organization where the space is
really open for action.
My warmest regards to you all
Thomas

  We had a wonderful time here in Camden. 30+ folks from all over came to
this little village by the sea. The weather was absolutely perfect as was
the depth and warmth of our discussions. Lisa Heft is pulling the
Proceedings together and when done, they will be posted so anybody who cares
may read. The closing circle, always a rich time, was special, but somehow
very ordinary, at least that is what Phelim said. And I agree. Just another
day in Open Space.
