OPEN 2018 Videos – Open Space sessions

August 26, 2018 By Oliver Sylvester-Bradley 1 Comment

DAY 1

The Open Space sessions at OPEN 2018 were a chance for attendees to put forward their own discussion topics. People put forward proposals on Loomio in the run-up to the event, others voted and the most popular sessions took place over the two days of the event.

We’d like to extend a big thank you to everyone who came and got involved, and Simon Borkin, David Bent and Alice Casey for facilitating.

If you’re interested in finding out more about any of the topics discussed please leave a comment below, join in the online discussions and collaborations or contact us directly.

In this workshop Iris guides participants through the Seven Modes of Everyday Participation, with case study examples and idea generation prompts, to help participants work out how to harness Everyday Participation at their organisations – with customers, workers or both – by offering them simple but significant ways to contribute on a day-to-day basis.
