Hi Avner,<br><br>
My personal experience has been with smaller groups (up to 120). But it
may be helpful anyway.<br><br>
With the Wiki crowd OS I co-facilitated with Deborah Hartman, people, of
course created a wiki. So the book was basically done at the same time as
the discussions were happening. I wouldn't be able to tell you about the
tech stuff, but I'm sure Deb will be happy to answer any
questions.<br><br>
In a more traditional fashion, what I have learned from Diane Gibeault is
to compile the book at the same time as the reports come in. So
:<br><br>
1. You need a main computer and an assistant at the Newsroom, expert in
word processing, very quick and focused (that person will pretty much be
doing only one thing during the OS : printing the reports and preparing
the Book.) <br>
2. have an electronic document ready at the main Newsroom computer, with
a cover page, list of participants, table for table of contents, after
which you can insert reports<br>
3. people do their reports on the computers, make a copy on a memory
stick, bring it to the Newsroom. <br>
4. print one copy to post, and one copy in a file, creating a paper book
that can be photocopied and distributed later<br>
5. save an electronic copy of each report on the main computer, in a file
created for the OS (for backup)<br>
6. insert the electronic individual reports in the electronic Book one
after the other, copy/pasting the title of the reports and initiators in
the table of contents. <br>
7. at lunch time, photocopy the full report in X number of
copies.<br><br>
With a group of 450, I doubt that you can actually make 450 photocopies
of a 100+ pages document during lunch time. But if you have access
on-site or really close to photocopiyng, maybe you can start the
production right after the second round of discussion and then continue
gradually after each round.<br><br>
It sure is a challenge, and you would need not only a super assistant,
but also a few runners and several really quick photocopy machines.
<br><br>
Hope this helps!<br><br>

<font size=2>We are having a one day OS in a beautiful open park, with
450 people of a cellular company in Israel. They want to create a leading
company in which happy clients and workers want to be part of. <br>
</font> <br>
<font size=2>The Sponser (the head of their largest division) is an OS
facilitator as well, insists on one day OS and about having the book of
of summaries done before we are moving to actions in the afternoon.<br>
</font> <br>
<font size=2>I am co facilitate this day with Shay Ben Yossef, that`s on
top of being a great OS facilitator he is also an excellent organizer, so
we are ready to be challenged<br>
</font> <br>
<font size=2>Any experiences about ways to do it are most welcome<br>
</font> <br>
