experience. Do it! And don’t worry. It (OS) always works – provided
the essential initial conditions are present and the procedure followed. The
conditions are: a) real “business” issue (something that people
care about) b) Lots of diversity (in terms of people, positions, and
possibilities) c) Plenty of complexity (in terms of the ways all that could fit
together) d) Some good, juicy conflict, or potential conflict. e) A decision
time of yesterday (genuine urgency). And the procedure you know – Sit in
a circle, create a bulletin board, open a market place, and get out of the way.</span></font></p>

program are both helpful – but at the end of the day, anybody with a good
head and a good heart can “do it.” And the secret is –
if you allow the space to open, everything else just happens. It is not all
about you, your skills and finesse. It is all about the people.</span></font></p>

my coaching partners are putting together an OS experience in Aug for a local
health department. We will be facilitating this event as novices.
We have both participated in one OS event in the past, have read "A User's
Guide", and signed up on the listserv. Our coaching training (model)
is based on AI and living systems theory. I also incorporate NVC into my
practice. We both would love to have more experience in open space before
we facilitate and /or would like some facilitator training. Do you have
any suggestions how we could gain more experience?? Any ideas would be
appreciated. Thank you.</span></font></p>
