We were delighted to work with Touch Design to co-facilitate an Open Space Event for for a mixed group of communication professionals based in the Midlands.
The theme focussed on creativity: how do you generate creative ideas, thinking, and innovative team working? How do you create new ideas for new and old campaigns? How do you recycle the good ideas and bring something new and fresh to your thinking? What processes do you use to develop and engage your team?
Open Space is about co-creation - it takes away the pre-defined agendas and topics of normal seminars and events and throws the discussion floor over to the participants. Open Space events have been used successfully all over the world to enable a self-organising group to use its collective imagination to deal with complex issues by sharing ideas and pooling knowledge in an incredibly short space of time.
