<div dir="ltr">Dear Martin,<div><br></div><div>Such a precious gift! Honoring of this process that we all love, with a level of clarity and context that makes it relatable to situations and opportunities that people live every day.. The way you have woven the words (they seem to dance), with the images, with the short listings and a hint of the more that Open Space is in a way that is always seeking less, the essential. </div><div><br></div><div>Thank you Martin.

Hi folks<br>
<br>
There's plenty of great material out there, and a few people have
tried to write articles answering the question: What Is Open Space?<br>
<br>
When trawling the internet though, it can be hard to find a nice
neat answer, or one that fits the seeker's needs. So I decided to
write a piece in the hope of helping to answer that question for
those in need, while adding my own flavour to the mix and generally
adding to the resources out there. It is also really important when
communicating with clients to have something to refer to that tries
to sum it up, and points towards further resources.<br>
<br>
I might try to write another more succinct version sometime, but for
now I hope you find this useful. Feedback very welcome, as well as
suggestions for extra links in the 'further reading' bit at the end.
If you like it, please share or use it to your heart's content.<br>
