There are no speakers!
How many times have we brought in an outsider to tell us what we already knew?

We’ll use Open Space!
![Page 20: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Huh?
![Page 21: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Open Space is a dialogue tool that generates communication, collaboration, innovation for groups large and small.
![Page 22: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Step One
Your PD Rep and Administrator team will ask you to select the big question from the list of nine choices that most interests you.
![Page 23: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Step Two
• On September 27th, in your “Big Question” group, write issues about the question on a piece of paper.
![Page 24: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Step Three
• Post the issues on the “market place” wall.
![Page 25: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Step Four
• Group similar ideas to create breakout groups.
![Page 26: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Step Five
• Gather with the smaller group interested in the same topic.
![Page 27: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Step Six
• Report out what you learned in your small group to the larger group.
![Page 28: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
There are a few “laws” that you should know.
![Page 29: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Use the “Law of Two Feet”
• If it is not serving your needs use your two feet and move.
• It is not being rude!
![Page 30: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
It’s Okay to be a Bumble bee
• In Open Space, Bumble Bees go from meeting to meeting.
• It is important to cross-pollinate our meeting with information from other groups.
![Page 31: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
It’s Okay to be Butterfly
• Butterflies may spend a lot of time flying around by the coffee table.
• Butterflies are not being lazy.
![Page 32: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Don’t be a Giraffe
• Giraffes are people who want to use their two feet, but are afraid of being seen as rude.
• Giraffes are not helpful in Open Space.
![Page 33: It’s coming!](https://reader034.vdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022052301/5484a1dbb4af9fe1258b458d/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
