Open Space Videos

I'm running an Open Space training session next week for a group of mental health service users who are planning to run their own OS conference every 6 months or so.

In preparation, (yes i do prepare sometimes),  I thought I'd have a quick look on YouTube to see if anyone had posted an OS video that I could use to convey the essence of the process. Well, I found 3 great ones. What a great resource YouTube can be. Here they are:

1. 2 minute interview (in the back of a taxi) with Harrison Owen, the larger than life guy who thought up Open Space, talking about how he did it. 

2. 3min 30sec video of an Open Space process used by the Transisition Network at their inurgural conference in Stroud;

3. 30sec video showing a speeded up 1 day OS conference at the Tate Modern. Great fun to watch.

I think I'll use these next week.

Incidentally if you want to know more about OS, go to Open Space World
