Creating an OS Room...

[Jeff Aitken]

Very interesting Mark!
There have been conversations on the list regarding better & worse building/landscape architectures for open space. Last weekend in open space a few of us were dreaming about an ideal conference center for open space in the san francisco bay area.
Before going there, however, i think the company might fruitfully discuss their social architecture before discussing their building architecture. Are the senior managers and the middle managers on board with working in an ongoing open space manner? It may take new skill sets to support and guide a bunch of continually forming and dissolving, self-managing "breakout" teams to run with their ideas, document them, and so forth.
The term "open space organization" has a history on this list too, and there are wonderful contributions from folks like harrison, birgitt williams, larry peterson, peggy holman, chris corrigan, lisa heft, michael herman and others, on this list and on their own websites.
wishing you well,
Jeff Aitken, PhDMount Tamalpais, California
