[OSList] FRIDAY INVITATION: Interview with Steve Holyer: Building an Online Carnival—or a Hallway—for Fun Conversations

[Lucas Cioffi]

Hi All,

Tomorrow (Friday, March 5th), there's a fun and interactive interview with
facilitator Steve Holyer who will share his lessons learned for holding an
online Mardi Gras on QiqoChat for the Agile Alliance.

Everyone here on OSLIST is familiar with open space.  Steve (cc'd) is an OS
facilitator and a member of OSLIST.  Although this event was not an open
space, you will learn tips for making your online events (OS or not) more
social, fun, and productive by seeing a different yet related event type.

Steve did a fantastic job with his event and I hope you can join us during
the interview to ask him some questions.  The goal of these interviews is
to have honest conversations among facilitators about what's working and
what needs to be improved so that we never stop learning.

*Session Description:*

> Our challenge was to gather Agilists from around the world around a shared
> purpose and held space for a fun party for professional networking. I
> wasn’t building and hosting an Open Space Technology event, but I wanted to
> embed Open Space principles into the experience because that’s what I
> needed to find engagement, creativity and joy. QiQoChat enabled us to do
> that, and as always we learned a lot of new things about opening and
> holding space for celebration online.
