[OSList] Original Harrison Owen paper on "Organization Transformation"?

[Harrison Owen]

OK - got a clue. I did make a presentation at a regional gathering of the
ODN in the early 80's. Actually David Belle Isle and I did it jointly. The
title of our presentation was "Myth and Ritual as the Ground for
Organization Transformation." There never really was a paper, just some
notes, and we just talked. I vaguely recall the last remarks - which I made
- "I don't know what Organization Transformation is, but I suspect that it
may be the successor to Organization Development, appropriate to life in a
transforming world." Or something.

Subject: Original Harrison Owen paper on "Organization Transformation"?

 

Hey folks, an ongoing effort of many people on this list and of the Open
Space Institute U.S. has been to fix up the Wikipedia page.
http://wikipedia.org/Open_Space_Technology. It has had some of the ugly
warnings at the beginning removed, but there are still issues.

The opening of the current version of the wikipedia article cites a paper
Harrison Owen wrote at "a traditional management conference".

What was this paper and is it available anywhere?

When was it published?

What was the traditional management conference where it was published?

    Thanks!
    Harold
