1,000 participants in 4 hours - The Report
菲律賓的好朋友 Sharon Joy Berlin Chao 七月受邀引導一場特別的open space,四小時內讓 1100多人一起討論。以下是她會後整理的一些過程與心得,貼出來跟大家分享。
Just two weeks ago I had this interesting experience of opening space for 1,100 (yes, the number swelled) under 4 hours. You probably remember the massive exchange in OSList on how to convene under these conditions as we burned the line talking about the merit of this assignment. The extent of our discussion was remarkable for it showed the depth of wisdom and passion attached to the practice with ideas flying from one side of the globe to the other.
It started with an invitation to a two-day symposium on performance management system in government service. And because it’s a symposium there were 6 speakers lined up including a dozen others for concurrent sessions. Day 1 had a couple of plenary and concurrent sessions. Open Space was slated in the morning of Day 2 followed by a formal symposium integration and closure in the afternoon. This was the first time HR people in government are called together, and there was a good mix of people from national agencies, government corporations, state universities and local government units in attendance.
The open space session focused on making performance management system (PMS) in public service truly essential, responsive and life giving. Sitting through Day 1 presentations and forums made me realize that the audience have compelling stories to tell in addition to having contending views on how to move PMS in their agency. This prompted me to check my own motivation as I worked with government in the past and I know that PMS has always been a thorny issue in the service. I need to bring respect to everyone involved and there’s no sense adding my own ideas and arrogance to the issue.
Bits and pieces of the process I used that somehow worked despite the number and the time configuration:

2013 開放空間學習工作坊的分享
2013.8.3--8/4。來自北中南、不同領域不同年齡約30位伙伴,進行了兩整天的分享與學習。練習過程中產出了幾個很棒且很有機會發生的開放空間會議主題:如〞讓退休成為再生~為台灣的未來貢獻〞;〞打造你的都市單身社群〞等等。
進入結束圓圈時,大家臉上有著小小的疲憊,帶著滿滿自在的內在空間,期待有更多的可能被開啟。
Gail說:這個世界會因為我們共渡這兩天而不一樣的。
