Christy Lee-Engel, whose Bastyr University group placed Open Space invitations in the cookie bins in their cafeteria, and who later used OpenSpaceTech in her classroom, is reporting more progress this week…
in the past few months I have been invited to some “Open Space conversations” that students have organized on their own, usually off-campus at one of their homes. I haven’t been able to attend any of them yet, so I don’t know what parts of the OST format they’ve adopted, if any–and I guess it doesn’t matter so much. It is exciting to me that they have felt some effect from their experience of Open Space and are choosing to participate in further opening.
As it should be! …the Space Opens and just keeps going ang going and going… Way to go, Christy!
Michael, thanks so much for all of your encouragement and for your ability to help open wide the doors of imagination and possibility–your enthusiasm and can-do-it-ness are so infectious!
Next up: I’m looking forward to hearing what comes of the Giving Conference,
and, wondering whether in the course of your next very fully-packed year-to-come you will find a sliver of time to come visit out this way?
love, Christy
