Authored by the originator of Open Space Technology, this work presents a user's guide that details what needs to be done before, during, and after an Open Space event.

Forms and transforms in people, they become strong, focused, and vibrant-and wonderful things can happen. But when the spirit is down, nothing else seems to make a difference-because not too much happens. Many of us today find ourselves trapped in just such organizations. The spirit in our workplace, to say nothing of our own spirit, is getting a little tattered, showing the early stages of what Harrison Owen calls "Soul Pollution." Those in the advanced stages may find themselves plagued by exhaustion, high levels of stress, and the abuse of just about anything in sight, including spouses, substances, and fellow workers. So what is the secret to transforming organizations? The answer, says Owen, is simple: we must consciously be what we already are-natural, open, self-organizing systems. In The Power of Spirit, Owen examines the world of Spirit/Consciousness in organizations and offers help to those who find themselves dreading another day on the job in an organization seemingly bent on its own destruction, as well as the destruction of its members. He draws from what we are now learning about self-organizing systems to provides a practical application to the world of organizations, revealing the ways in which Spirit shows up in new, emergent organizational forms. Widely known for his Open Space Technology-a broadly used meeting management tool-Owen now pushes well beyond that surface appreciation and suggests deeper applications and implications, showing how what has been experienced in a typical "great meeting" with Open Space can actually be a 365-day-a-year reality. For all those interested in Spirit and spirituality, particularly in the workplace, individuals who are feeling down and out and buried by Soul Pollution in the workplace, and for current practitioners of Open Space Technology who are wondering what comes after a "great meeting"-The Power of Spirit will offer a pathway to positive transformation.

Open Space Technologie, een gebruikersgids, is precies wat de naam impliceert: een hands-on, gedetailleerde beschrijving van het faciliteren van Open Space-bijeenkomsten. Open Space Technologie is een effectieve, efficiënte, snelle en gemakkelijk herhaalbare strategie voor het organiseren van bijeenkomsten van 5 tot 2.000 deelnemers, die in duizenden organisaties in 134 landen is toegepast en nog steeds aan populariteit wint. Geschreven door de grondlegger van de methode Harrison Owen, is dit het meest toonaangevende boek over de grondgedachte, procedures en vereisten van Open Space Technologie. Open Space Technologie stelt zelforganiserende groepen van elke omvang in staat om zeer complexe vraagstukken in zeer korte tijd aan te pakken. Deze stap-voor-stap handleiding beschrijft wat er gedaan moet worden voor, tijdens en na een Open Space-bijeenkomst. Harrison Owen beschrijft alle praktische overwegingen die nodig zijn om Open Space te creëren. Hij begint met de belangrijkste vraag: moet je Open Space überhaupt gebruiken? Vervolgens onderzoekt hij welke soorten situaties geschikt zijn voor Open Space Technologie en welke niet. Praktische zaken krijgen ook aandacht zoals te gebruiken materialen, logistiek, wie er moet komen en hoe je ze daar moet krijgen.

"Le Forum Ouvert crée un espace structuré dans lequel un groupe de personnes peut s'organiser et résoudre des problèmes de façon créative et dynamique. Pragmatique, son but est de retrouver la créativité et l'autenthicité des pauses-café pour donner en peu de temps des solutions à des thématiques même complexes grâce à la liberté d'expression et l'auto-organisation des personnes concernées. Son utilisation booste la créativité et la prise d'initiative de ses participants, la co-responsablilité et l'émergence d'idée innovantes. Forum Ouvert en chiffres : 1985 : création par Harrison Owen. 1991 : 1er Forum Ouvert organisé en France par le groupe Accor. 145 : nombre de pays où se sont tenues des Forums Ouverts. 5 à plus de 2000 personnes : nombre de participants possibles. 100 000 et bien plus : nombre de Forums Ouverts recensés. 20 minutes : temps moyen nécessaire à la création de l’ordre du jour. 3 heures : temps nécessaire pour expérimenter le Forum Ouvert. 2 jours : durée optimale. Les 4 principes : les personnes qui se présentent sont les bonnes. Ce qui arrive est la seule chose qui pouvait arriver. Ça commence quand ça commence ; quand c’est fini, c’est fini. La loi de la mobilité ou loi des deux pieds : si vous n’êtes ni en train d’apprendre, ni de contribuer, passez à autre chose ! Les animaux totems : les papillons prennent une pause ou réfléchissent , les abeilles font circuler les idées d'atelier en ateliers."
