Open Space Party

  • Article

Yesterday a number of my friends had organized a "reunion farewell party". Reunion since many of the guys had not seen each other for several years. Preparing for the party we had a lot of discussions on what would happen because we expected it to get pretty wild. That was when it struck me that a great party is like an Open Space:

  • Whoever comes is the right people
  • Whatever happens is the only thing that could have
  • Whenever it starts is the right time
  • When it's over, it's over

There is no point in analyzing what is going to happen more than that... I only feel slightly disturbed just because of the fact that I'm comparing a party with an open space session...
