HI Suzanne,<br>
<br>
Recently I have come to understand that Open Space (big O, big S) is
really an "emergency procedure" for when the open space (small o,
small s) seems to be fading...this is completely consistent with
what Harrison says about those principle and the law and all,
namely: "those principles and that law are always operating, with or
without those posters."<br>
<br>
...Consider the OST requirements:<br>
<br>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<ol>
<li><i>Complexity</i>, in terms of the tasks to be done or
outcomes achieved;</li>
<li><i>Diversity</i>, in terms of the people involved and/or
needed to make any solution work;</li>
<li><i>Conflict, real or potential</i>, meaning people really care
about the central issue or purpose; and</li>
<li><i>Urgency</i>, meaning that the time to act was "yesterday".</li>
</ol>
So lately, I've come to understand that we are executing an
"emergency procedure" to reopen what is now closing, yet used to be
open...at least for a little while.<br>
<br>
I love this work. <br>
<br>

<div dir="ltr">Bravo Dan,
<div><br>
<div>You are living your journey with such passion, belief and
hard work. It is at the heart of Open Space, a critical
issue and big purpose, inviting others who also care to do
what needs to be done, step by step. It inspires me in my
own work and makes me feel very grateful that because of
your drive and all who are joining in, more and more people
will experience Open Space and will put their own leadership
to good use because it awakened something deep inside of
them. Very exciting, congrats!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>In the same breath, I also celebrate on a smaller scale
that some folks who attended the International House annual
gathering in New York with Karen and Harrison, (at least 3
who I've heard from) are now facilitating and/or hosting
their first Open Spaces with small groups and large groups. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>From Agile to Iceland to Poland, to the first Virtual
Open Space on Open Space in July, etc. etc. etc. there is so
much happening -- some that we know about and much that we
don't. </div>

<br>
I've been a little too quiet lately...been working "like a
rented mule" to complete a total renaming/rebranding of
Open Agile Adoption.<br>
<br>
(We needed to change the name due to a collision with
another existing trademark, so we did.)<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The new name is OPENSPACE AGILITY (two words) and the
all-new web is: <br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://OpenSpaceAgility.com" target="_blank">http://OpenSpaceAgility.com</a><br>
<br>
The entire aim of OpenSpace Agility (OSA) is to show
client organizations how to save time, effort, heartache,
and money inside their Agile adoptions.<br>
<br>
How? By employing Open Space to improve FAST....by
triggering and igniting the true source of high
performance, which is: <br>
<br>
SELF ORGANIZATION<br>
<br>

I invite your feedback!! <br>
<br>
I am asking for help: <br>
<ul>
<li>Will you please post the link <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://OpenSpaceAgility.com" target="_blank">http://OpenSpaceAgility.com</a>
to your Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and other social
media, send others over to investigate?</li>
<li>Will you send me any typos, broken links etc (send
me the URL and the item you find?)</li>
</ul>
<br>
Large organizations with very slow-to-move cultures are
using this method to get movement. And they are GETTING
IT. <br>
<br>
To date, the largest Open Space events arranged in
client-orgs using this method had opening-circle seating
for over 400++. <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
The Agile community is beginning to really embrace this. <br>
<br>
We have been invited to join the AGILE COACH CAMP USA in
DC July 31-Aug2, and give a 1/2 workshop following that
event. <br>
<br>
everal of us from here are attending that ACC/DC event! <br>
<br>
We will also be teaching Open Space and OSA at the Agile
conference Aug 3-7.<br>
<br>
All in all, not too bad. Things are moving!<br>

Thank you kindly for any help you can provide. If you want
to learn the method the next class is July 22-23 in
Cambridge, MA. See the web site for details!<br>
