Anne Stadler, are you really coming to WOSonOS? Oh yippee, yippee, yippee.
I noticed that you mentioned November but it's happening in October (25 to
27th).
I'm beyond excited that the golden oldies are coming cause as it goes, feel
more and more in that category though much to learn and inhale still.
Now if any other golden oldies or younger ones too are reading this and you
signified you're coming, didn't see some of you on the roster yet. Hurry up
cause as Harold says, the lodging space at Cherry Hill is limited. Other
options in hotels nearby but so much more fun being together around the
clock. A bit like Sleeping Lady in Leavenworth Washington where Peggy, you
and others hosted Wave Rider, Leadership in a Self-Organizing World. It's
where I met you Anne and what a joy it was!

>>>>>> Harrison
>>>>>> came to Ontario, Canada to offer his first four day Canadian OST
>>>>>> training.
>>>>>> The setting was the Five Oaks Conference Center of the United Church
>>>>>> of
>>>>>> Canada. George Hermannson, Director of Five Oaks and Larry Peterson,
>>>>>> Director of the national Urban Core Support Network had heard Harrison
>>>>>> speak in 1990 and thus began their intention to sponsor a training,
>>>>>> and to
>>>>>> bring Harrison to Canada. In those days, Harrison offered four day
>>>>>> training
>>>>>> sessions in OST. Participants included primarily Directors of various
>>>>>> social service, religious, health and educational services, about
>>>>>> twenty of
>>>>>> us.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> I immediately started using OST in my social/health service
>>>>>> organization.
>>>>>> Even though I was in the 'boss' senior staff position, I chose to be
>>>>>> the
>>>>>> facilitator. One initial multi-day OST meeting with Board of
>>>>>> Directors/Staff/volunteers/community allies to develop the basis for a
>>>>>> strategic plan, followed by a monthly half day OST meeting to work on
>>>>>> each
>>>>>> of the four themes that came out of the first OST meeting to further
>>>>>> develop our strategies for implementation.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> There were many developments based on OST in the following three
>>>>>> years. The
>>>>>> Board of Directors and the staff team of about 80 people participated
>>>>>> in
>>>>>> active experimentation with me about using OST, what worked within our
>>>>>> organization, and what didn't work. The learning we did together led
>>>>>> to the
>>>>>> development of this module of the Genuine Contact program, Working
>>>>>> With
>>>>>> Open Space Technology. The finishing touches for the module came
>>>>>> about when
>>>>>> I had assistance from a school principal, Monica McGlynn Stewart when
>>>>>> facilitating a large OST meeting. She was superb in her questioning
>>>>>> of me
>>>>>> in why certain things were happening, what my thinking was, how I was
>>>>>> making the many many decisions I was making in my role as the
>>>>>> consultant/facilitator. Prior to that I was not aware of all of this
>>>>>> decision making that I was doing. Via Monica's questions which she
>>>>>> tracked
>>>>>> on post it notes for me, I came to realize more that was needed in
>>>>>> facilitating the OST meeting.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> Simultaneously, the Urban Core Support Network in most inner cities
>>>>>> across
>>>>>> Canada under Larry's leadership started using OST for many types of
>>>>>> meetings including community engagement. The Urban Core Support
>>>>>> Network
>>>>>> used a multi-day OST meeting for the annual conference. This gave me
>>>>>> the
>>>>>> opportunity to be a participant in OST annually, to learn more about
>>>>>> OST
>>>>>> including how we as an organization could benefit from the annual
>>>>>> meeting
>>>>>> throughout the year...the benefits and trials of doing so.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> I had my own experiences as a leader of long term use of OST in an

>>>>>> I had the experience of watching and conversing with Larry about his
>>>>>> long
>>>>>> term use of OST in an organization.
>>>>>> This led to two articles published in Berrett-Kohler's Journal: At
>>>>>> Work:
>>>>>> Stories of Tomorrow's Workplace.
>>>>>>
>>>>>> All of this experience led to the development of the module Working

>>>>>> Open Space Technology.
