[OSList] Papers and writing about opening space

Sat Jul 7 12:32:09 PDT 2018

And maybe my PhD research on success factors and effects of large scale interventions might be of help. See https://www.amazon.com/Building-evidence-based-practical-Interventions/dp/9059725034 . For the large group merhods I included Open Space Technology.
Good luck with your research Karl.

Chris mentioned his chapter in the Dialogic Organization Development book on containers. You might also find my chapter on complexity, self-organization and emergence in that same book of us. And if that path of inquiry is useful, check out Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity.

Hi Karl - would you say more about your questions? What are the initial directions of your inquiry around a "conceptual basis" of opening holding and closing space?
And what do you mean by "self structuring of open space"?
And can you say a bit more about "pattern recognition as people participate in open space"
I wrote a PhD on open space using some unusual methodologies including Organic Inquiry (feminist heuristic phenomenology) and Indigenous Science.
I've also been involved in some of the conversations about researching Open Space over the years.

Karl – there is very little in the academic literature for reasons I’ve always found interesting and odd… but predictable. However, the International Press has covered it extensively and if you will accept a rather biased source, I have a number of books on the subject. 5 remain in print and are published by Berrett-Koehler. There are also a number of others, now out of print, but available online at www.openspaceworld.com along with s number of occasional papers.  You might find my first book, “Spirit: Transformation and Development in Organizations” interesting. It is not about Open Space per se but represents the basic framework out of which it grew. It is also the first time I used the words “open space.” Good luck – and I’d love to see where you go. Harrison Winter Address7808 River Falls Dr.Potomac, MD 20854301-365-2093 Summer Address189 Beaucauire AveCamden, ME 04843207 763-3261 Websiteswww.openspaceworld.comwww.ho-image.com From: OSList [mailto:oslist-bounces at lists.openspacetech.org] On Behalf Of Royle, Karl via OSList

Subject: [OSList] Papers and writing about opening space Dear Colleagues, I am in the process of writing a PHD by publication and have become interested in the conceptual basis of opening space/holding space and closing space. I am also interested in the concept of self structuring  of open space (contentious I know) and pattern recognition as people participate in open space. Does anyone know of any literature around these themes.. or equally, any thoughts? Just a thought. Many thanks in advance Karl  Karl RoyleHead of Enterprise and Commercial DevelopmentCertified Scrum Product Owner and Scrum MasterFaculty of Education Health and WellbeingUniversity of Wolverhampton 0190232300607815416698 at karlroyle.

Subject: Re: [OSList] Learning to work with OST Dear Thomas,  thank you for your dedication and creativity to explore open space. :) I am sure you have sooo many new stories to share about the essence and nature of open space!  I am really looking forward to experiencing your new level of thinking, being present and sharing new perspectives at our training Working with Open Space Technology in the Netherlands in September this year.  It’s always so much fun to “work” with Doris, you and our participants.  Doris and myself are also planning to come to Iceland to the WOSonOS and hope to meet many of our dear & crazy colleagues from around the world there! ;) I recently facilitated an Open Space Technology meeting at a school with 300 young people who discussed how to get involved and support migrants coming to Germany.Here you can see a little Video about the Open Space - in German (no subtitles). much Love all around! Anna Caroline       On Jul 3, 2018, at 2:13 PM, Thomas Herrmann via OSList <oslist at lists.openspacetech.org> wrote: Dear friends in Open SpaceI just returned home after almost 6 months “in open space”. My wife and myself have been on a journey in 6 countries including NZ, Aus, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos and Indonesia. No musts just going with the flow – being in open space. What a privilege and joy. And now I am back in our house, renovating my office and enjoying summer holiday 😊. I have also booked my tickets to join WOSonOS in Iceland in October. Otherwise there is a lot of open space ahead which gives me the opportunity to be and see what emerges. Exciting! I also want to take the opportunity to ask you to spread the word, if you know anyone interested to learn how to work with OST in a sustainable way. I am happy to offer our three day training September 12-14 in our favorite place in The Netherlands, 50 min from Amsterdam airport. This learning journey is facilitated by a great team where I am happy to “work” together with Doris Gottlieb and Anna Caroline Türk. More info! Adding a picture from an open spacey Sweden<image001.jpg> So, see you in Amsterdam and/or Iceland…HugsThomas HerrmannOpen Space Consulting ABPensévägen 4, 434 46 Kungsbacka, SwedenTelefon: +46 (0)709 98 97 81Email: thomas at openspaceconsulting.comHomepage: www.openspaceconsulting.comProfile on LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/thomasherrmannopenspaceconsultCompany page on Facebook: www.facebook.com/OpenSpaceConsulting Join our upcoming workshops in 2017 & 2018!Co-creation is here to stay – time to sharpen your skills?Medskapande är hör för att stanna – dags att vässa er förmåga?2018Sept 12-14: Working with Open Space Technology – Netherlands (dito)2019Febr 12-15: Genuine Contact Organization - NetherlandsApr 2-6: Genuine Contact Train the Trainer - NetherlandsMore info: www.openspaceconsulting.com (Aktiviteter) _______________________________________________
