Ouch! But, for my money, if it ain’t voluntary (self selection responding to a real invitation) it ain’t Open Space. Maybe more to the point, it is not something that I have either the competence or the interest to be involved with. Let’s say that the issue at hand is the implementation of some new corporate procedure. The plans are made, the research is done, and the marching orders are printed. And for some reason the idea surfaced that a great way to launch all this was an “Open Space.” Which we all know is the sexiest, new thing – to provide a little sizzle and pop. Bad idea! Just issue the orders, explain if necessary, and tell the folks to get to work. And if you think you can actually can achieve high levels of efficiency, effectiveness, and profitability proceeding like that, Please be my guest! I really can’t help (and I don’t want to either </span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Wingdings;color:#1F497D'>J</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>).<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>But, let’s say the scenario is different. There is a real, important issue and nobody knows the way forward. Sounds like “meat and potatoes” for Open Space – BUT the sponsor thinks it is so important that “everybody MUST attend.” What to do? Same principles, so far as I can see. Open Space runs on passion and responsibility – which is only another way of saying that the ticket for admission is that people really CARE to come, meaning a real invitation to voluntary, self selected participants. Sounds like ideological purity, but I don’t think that is true. It is just a matter of stating the facts, at least the facts as I have come to know them. Assembling a group of people who don’t really care is a great way to fail. And why would you want to do that?<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Now what? Would you sell Open Space? No. I would “sell” the people. It might go something like this. Mr/Ms CEO – you presumably have a great group of competent people, and given the issue you face you will need all the best thinking and commitment all around. So the question is: How to create the best supportive environment to achieve the greatest possible results? There are no guarantees of course, but given good people and a supportive environment, it is more than likely that you can achieve outstanding results. Will it be done in the way you expect? Probably not, but if it were, and you already knew the answers and procedures, there really was no need to go through any elaborate process. Just tell them to Do it! But if you believe in your people and hope to exceed your expectations (Be REALLY surprised) you must have people who genuinely care. And only the voluntary will likely meet the test. Your choice.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Of course, if you don’t have a group of “great, competent people” you do have a problem, but it is not one that Open Space (or any other approach) can solve. You probably need to talk to your HR folks about their recruitment practices. If they (the Employees) are really so bad that you can’t trust them, the best thing is just fire the bunch and see if you can do better. Good Luck.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>A little out on the edge?

However serving the group during the meetings with the client is harder. In some cases I feel myself selling OST, just because of sharing passionate stories or nice events. No-go area for me could be when bosses decide when a team needs to do OST, where the participants are forced to show up and there is no openness to outcome. Recently I was in such a situation.
