The list of speakers/conveners includes a few people on our OS community, including Harrison Owen, Tova Averbuch, Peggy Holman. As well, four of us (Suzanne Daigle, Jake Yeager, Rachel Bolton and I) are facilitating a meeting within the conference using Open Space Technology. When we were asked to each take a one hour session time to have an Open Space during that session, with topics posted in the chat window, it felt to me like a speed dating version of Open Space. The four of us conferred and the result was to have one congruent OST meeting that had five session times, using those sessions as topic conversation round times. We wanted to offer as much time for the discussions as possible within the structure of the conference, and we wanted to provide people who attended any of the sessions to have the experience of being within something greater, something that could make a bigger difference.</span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'> </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'>Having come up with that as our offer, and having the conference organizers agree to one comprehensive OST meeting taking place in five one hour sessions over the three days, we solved some of what felt limiting to us. Suzanne wondered if we could use the last session to have a closing circle of the OST and we all were very much in favor of her wish and she is facilitating that session. We wanted to use some of the first session to open the space and invite for the co-creation of the agenda wall, likely using Miro. The agenda wall would be open for more topics to be added. </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'> </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'>There are still some challenges to be worked out and with the help of the conference organizers, we intend finding viable solutions. Right now, the schedule on the website is offered as a list, so it appears that there are five different Open Space sessions. We will find a way to communicate that what is offered is an Open Space Technology meeting over the five sessions. Haven't quite figured out how to convey that this isn't limited to five times in which there is open space in the conference, but rather that there is a meeting method that has great value for collaborative change: Open Space Technology. </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'> </span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span lang=EN-US style='font-family:"Verdana",sans-serif'>I like that the one method that is going to be included in the conference itself as a method is Open Space Technology.
