<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;color:#1F497D'>My univ is
considering using Open Space for strategic planning. The event probably will
need to be held at a time when faculty are not “officially” on campus – before
a term, during a term break, or after a term. The question has come up about
offering an incentive (e.g., nice meal, book purchase, door prizes) to
encourage faculty participation. A part of me wonders if bribing people to
attend (or rewarding them depending on your perspective) goes against the grain
of simply inviting faculty and staff to bring their passion to the event
because they care? I would greatly appreciate hearing what folks on the
listserv think. Thank you. David Cox<o:p></o:p></span></p>
