To our Colleagues and Friends on the OS list,<br>
<br>
We are delighted and very excited to announce the launching of a first<br>
French Book on Open Space. It was produced as an Ebook that people can<br>
download for free. Intended primarily for a corporate audience, the book<br>
gives examples of actual client situations (from the private and public<br>
sectors) where Open Space was used while also providing information on<br>
the planning steps and benefits of this powerful technology.<br>
The title of the book is :“Changez votre organization avec coeur et<br>
élan”which means “Change your organization with heart and vitality”.<br>
We invite you to take a look at the book even if you do not read or<br>
speak French.<br>
You will recognize many familiar faces from our OS community including<br>
Harrison Owen who wrote the preface and a team of 9 authors: Frémy Cesar<br>
(Haiti), Catherine Corbaz (Switzerland), Suzanne Daigle (USA), Diane<br>
Gibeault (Canada), Théo Groot (Uganda), Christine Koehler (France),<br>
DéborahMaarek (Belgium), Catherine Pfaehler (Switzerland), and Artur<br>
Silva (Portugal).<br>

The fact that Harrison’s Open Space User Guide was not available in<br>
French and that there were so few resources and publications in French<br>
are what motivated me to start this project. We began about a year ago<br>
not really knowing what we were getting into. It was a wonderful<br>
collaborative experience! Our hope is that this book will raise<br>
awareness and generate lots of interest in the Francophone community<br>
around the world – a precursor to having the User Guide translated also.<br>
<br>
To launch the publication of this book, we produced a shortvideo<br>
<<a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/ForumOuvert" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/user/<u></u>ForumOuvert</a>>and are planning to promote the<br>
book with the following press release. While the video is in French,<br>
you will have a chance to see and hear Harrison talk about it in English<br>
(French sub-titles) and also see the team giving examples, sharing their<br>
excitement and inviting people to read the book.<br>
<br>
For those who are interested,here<br>
<<a href="http://www.christine-koehler.fr/forum-ouvert/" target="_blank">http://www.christine-koehler.<u></u>fr/forum-ouvert/</a>>is an integral copy of<br>

<<a href="http://christine-koehler.fr/forum-ouvert/" target="_blank">http://christine-koehler.fr/<u></u>forum-ouvert/</a>>**Note to Corporate Clients**<br>
/ Note à l’intention des entreprises,/in which he speaks about his work<br>
with the International Accor Group of Hotels in France.<br>
<br>

Press Release<br>
<br>
<br>
First Book in French on Open Space Technology<br>
<br>
What if you could identify a critical issue in your organization, bring<br>
together many diverse people who have a stake in it and come out of a<br>
single meeting with a solid action plan and concrete initiatives to<br>
which key players are fully committed?<br>
<br>
This is exactly what Open Space Technology invites people to do. It is<br>
a simple and quick methodologythat applies in just about any situation<br>
as long as there is truly a sense that the issue is important. This<br>
method is also recognized for being effective for complex and urgent<br>
problematic situations.<br>
<br>
Co-authored by nine experienced facilitators from around the world with<br>
a preface by Harrison Owen, creator of Open Space and author of Open<br>
Space Technology, this newly published White Book presents a detailed<br>
picture of why leaders and organizations may want to host events using<br>
this simple, highly engaging and dynamic process.<br>
<br>
Christine Koehler of Paris, France, who initiated this e-publication,<br>
explains the genesis of this collaborative effort: “I deplored that<br>
there were so few resources available in French despite the fact that<br>
Open Space is being used in over 145 countries.<br>
<br>
Through real client stories, readers will see the possibility of<br>
transformational changein their own organization while gaining an<br>
understanding of when to use this process and the steps required in<br>
planning an event of their own.”<br>
<br>
This 58 page E-book includes articles, testimonials, photos, references,<br>
links and author biographies. Readers will have an opportunity to<br>
download it for freeand to also ask questions about the<br>
process:<a href="http://www.forum-ouvert.fr" target="_blank">www.forum-ouvert.fr</a> <<a href="http://www.forum-ouvert.fr/" target="_blank">http://www.forum-ouvert.fr/</a>><br>
