What is Open
Space Technology?
Open Space Technology(OST)
is a self-organizing way of facilitating communication and action.
It further brings out the inherent creativity and leadership in
people. OST establishes a marketplace of inquiry where people gather
to offer topics they care about, reflect and learn from one another,
and engage in innovative work.
Open Space Technology is one way to enable all kinds of people,
in any kind of organization, to create inspired meetings and events.
Over the last 15 years, it has also become clear that open space
is an intentional leadership practice, can create inspired organizations,
where ordinary people work together to create extraordinary results
with regularity.
In Open Space meetings,
events and organizations, participants create and manage their own
agenda of parallel working sessions around a central theme of strategic
importance, such as: What is the strategy, group, organization or
community that all stakeholders can support and work together to
create?
With groups of 5
to 1000 -- working in one-day workshops, three-day conferences,
or the regular weekly staff meeting -- the common result is a powerful,
effective connecting and strengthening of what's already happening
in the organization: planning and action, learning and doing, passion
and responsibility, participation and performance.
