I've organised a couple of open space only conferences (www.agileopen.net ) and the events were life-changing for some of the partipants; that was something I did not expect at first, it was more powerful than I could imagine. Unlike what some open space practicioners say, I don't believe facilitation is unimportant for open space - finding a balance on what (not) to say and do seems to make a big difference. You can read more about my experiences as organiser and participant in some of the posts tagged open space: http://me.andering.com/tag/open-space/ The day after tomorrow I'll be co-hosting yet another open space :) really looking forward to it, this time together with a 'scheduled' conference (xp2009) that is always a bit more tricky than pure open space. I'm curious to hear your experiences, and where your interest in open space comes from. Willem Hi Anders,

My experience with open space is pretty positive. I’ve organised a couple of open space only conferences (www.agileopen.net ) and the events were life-changing for some of the partipants; that was something I did not expect at first, it was more powerful than I could imagine. Unlike what some open space practicioners say, I don’t believe facilitation is unimportant for open space – finding a balance on what (not) to say and do seems to make a big difference.

The day after tomorrow I’ll be co-hosting yet another open space :) really looking forward to it, this time together with a ’scheduled’ conference (xp2009) that is always a bit more tricky than pure open space.

I’m curious to hear your experiences, and where your interest in open space comes from.

I am a also a developer/project manager that tries to permeate my work with systems thinking. You mention Open Space. What is your experience with that concept? /Anders Hi
