SV: Open Space Perking in Quebec

[Thomas Herrmann]

WOW, Diane

Thanks for sharing the energizing information about the development in
Quebec! Way to go!

Next week Eva P Svensson and myself will facilitate an OST training here in
West Sweden, not so many signed up yet, probably 5 people but they come from
3 countries which is great – Finland, Norway and Sweden and apart from that
also represent a great diversity – like mostly. But first we´re going to
Norway tomorrow to meet our collegues to do some development work around
OST/Genuine Contact and to plan trainings for the year to come.

Best regards & Good luck to you all over there

Thomas

When it starts is the right time. 

 

The evolution of Open Space in Quebec is certainly following that OS
principle. For 10 years, a few people from Quebec would join the annual OS
training either in French or in English in Ottawa or Toronto. In the new
year leadership emerged in Montreal Quebec and within 3 weeks, 20 people had
signed up for an OS learning workshop in French. 

 

Whoever shows up is the right people. Again, the principle showed its truth.
People had an affinity with the values and principles of OS and quickly felt
the deep potential of this approach ...beyond the method.

 

On the second day, the key organizer had a special meeting with his
organization's decision makers and convinced them to hold two Open Space
events, 200 and 350 people. Two other participants sent out an invitation
the next week for an OS event on Creativity and Management for the end of
April in Montreal.

 

On the evening of day-2, three OS consultant facilitators from the area and
a number of workshop participants met in a somewhat impromptu Stammtisch.
The energy just spread like wild fire and two weeks later, a conference call
was held among half a dozen people intent on building a French OS community
in Quebec and connecting with other French OS people and communities in the
world. 

 

You will soon hear about an international OSonOS in French to be held in
automn in one of Quebec's natural treasure sites. 

 

Things are not only brewing, they're perking ! It's so uplifting and
rewarding to see OS doing it's magic.
