[OSList] What happens after Open Space? Any case studies on this?

[Chris Corrigan via OSList]

Well. First everything is already infinitely complex, and that's a good thing. 

And second once the train has left the station, one needs to give a bit more thought to how to NOW get to where you need to go. It's simpler to just plan to get to the station on time. But barring that a little more thinking (or opened space as Bhav notes) is always a good idea. :)

After people have had the conversations and shared ideas, is there any mechanism or case studies of that being the START of a larger project or opportunity to make a positive change? Does anyone in this group have any ideas or case studies they could share? We’re looking for ideas on how to best move the ball forward.
