Hi Bhavesh,
Thank you for giving us such good news about your OST Learning workshop. Good
for you for creating such an inspiring learning opportunity for so many people!
Thank you also for sharing your process.
Your timetable reflects a process that I have been moving towards more and more
ie starting the OS experience even before lunch - gives more time after for
participants to anchor and build their learning...which makes learning more
meaningful. I do keep a short convergence phase for personal action the next
morning. It allows participants to experience this focussing process as well as
living evening News the day before (as oppose to only the closing) and Morning
News. They can also feel the benefits of the overnight reflection and incubation
( a valuable experience to help clients understand the added value of more time)
and the more relaxed transition to convergence when the logistics are dealt with
overnight.
The best to you in the new space and life you are moving into.
Diane

Dear Friends,
The OST Learning Workshop that I ran went very well, attached is the overall
timetable and I am happy to provide more materials to those who need them.
29 showed up from corporate and civil society, some quite seasoned consultant
facilitator trainer types. This created a rich diversity of experiences.
I attempted to use a lot of participatory processes to encourage
self-organisation and self-learning during the workshop, and respected the law
and principles and it seemed to work. I also used audio, video, slides,
reflection, work in small groups, etc.
A deep sense of appreciation emerged at the end of the workshop about how OST
creates conditions for a very different way of "being together", and one that is
actually part of us, buried in there somewhere.
Many made good connections during the workshop, and spoke of creating a
learning/practice community that may start monthly stammtischs, OSonOS in
Malaysia, and maybe even host a WONonOS one of these days, who knows, whatever
will happen at the right and place.
My main intention was to pass OST on as best I could before I head back to
Europe next month.
Anyway I wanted to say a MASSIVE THANKS to all of you on this loop as everything
I did was standing on the shoulders of all of you......hmmmmmm, not the best
metaphor, how about cradled in the arms of this loop.......
With Respect, Bhav......
