Richard Kasperowski is the first Open Space facilitator that takes the Agile NYC Open Space “virtual” on JUN 19th.

Agile NYC has a long tradition of Open Space conferences, but this will be our first virtual one. And because this event is virtual we are inviting not only New Yorkers, but the world to join.

Register here: www.agilenyc.org

For only $10, learn about agile in a post-covid world but also see in action how Open Space can be done in a remote setting. In addition to the open space, hear a 30 Minute keynote by Cristina DiGiacomo and a live graphic recording, all in a remote setting.

Joe Krebs speaks with Richard Kasperowski about virtual Open Space and how to adjust this liberating structure to make it work in a remote environment.

This audio segment is a re-release of Harrison Owen’s talk at Agile NYC back in 2012. You can find the corresponding video here on YouTube.

Open Space is an integral part of many companies these days and this talk in NYC still pushes the boundaries today and is truly a timeless piece about organizational agility with Open Space. Beside conferences and client work, Open Space became a liberating structure and made its way into the Agile Transformation Kata. I also dedicated and released a free poster about Open Space.

If you like to see an Open Space in action in a virtual set-up, join me here. If you are looking for a 5-Minute introduction to Open Space, I just released a video that can be used to introduce your audience to an open space.
