Pushing the envelope in terms of OS experience in work environments – that is more than (in addition to) simply “doing an event” – is absolutely key to our next level of learning, I think. And you have a lot to tell us!<u></u><u></u></span></p>

Last year it was in London, and the year before in Santiago – but this year it is right in your (our) back yard – well a little bit south. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

<br>My name is David Morgan. I have been practicing Open Space Technology since a year or so before my attendance at the Practice of Peace event on Whidbey Island, Washington, November 2003. I remember the magic of that event, with about 130 people. I met Harrison outside in the rain in his blue jeans, cowboy hat and smoking his pipe. I met some wonderful people that day; Anne Stadler who, it turns out I am related to from way back, Lisa Heft, Gabrielle Shirley, Peggy Holman and many others...<br>
<br>For many years I have run industrial companies. For the past 8-years I have run a product company for a major non-profit, Perkins School for the Blind. I have been blessed to be able to apply the principles of self-organization and Open space to drive innovation and organizational change. We have been changing the face of education for the blind and how children learn braille - developing new product and driving innovation in education and product development.<br>
<br>I<b> am reaching out to this community to solicit stories from Open Space. Stories which reflect the use of Open Space Technology to drive innovation, product development, or organizational change...</b><br><br>Do you have or know of someone who has used open space in facilitate innovation, new product development, or organizational change? If so, I'd love to hear your stories...<br>
<br>Thanks so much. Warmest regards.<br><br>David Morgan<br><a href="mailto:Ties_dm@yahoo.com" target="_blank">Ties_dm@yahoo.com</a><br><br><br><br><u></u><u></u></p></td></tr></tbody></table><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><u></u> <u></u></span></p>
