[OSList] OS Yum Cha in Melbourne -- Friday 12th Feb at 11:30am

Fri Feb 5 09:38:45 PST 2016

This is a beautiful tradition of our community of practice. So much so that I built in a Stammtich into my OST training in June. 

Until you combine Open Space and martinis and conversation you truly don't appreciate the source of inspiration for this whole experiment.

:)

PS Andrew I would be there in a heartbeat if I could. I loved Brian and am very fond of all of you in Melbourne and the Surf Coast.  Have fun

We always meet on the first Monday of every uneven month (so next one will be on March 7, in case you are in Berlin) at 7pm... that is 7pm is the time for which we reserved tables... folks come and go as it suits them, open space style.

So, its the gathering of the local os-tribe gathering around a table for whatever will pass... just as is the style in Melbourne.
