Wave Rider is about leveraging the power of self-organization for high performance in all sizes and types of organizations. Harrison Owen the originator of the internationally popular Open Space Technology organizational change method, shows that self-organization is the most powerful force in organizations ??? but a force that is often muffled by well meaning yet constricting management and leadership practices. Using his unique and interesting folksy writing style he reveals that self-organization is the magic behind the immense success of Open Space Technology, and he applies the principles of Open Space Technology to day-to-day management and leadership (not just to meetings and change programs, which is where open space technology has previously been most used).

Tales from Open Space is a serious book by serious people. You will find, however, that it is more of a travel log than an academic discourse. There is a good reason. The discovery of Open Space is an ongoing journey, pursued by many people in many lands. The final destination is nowhere in sight and indeed there is every reason to believe that the trip is just barely getting under way. Nobody owns it, nobody can claim full credit for its discovery. Open Space is truly the product of many multiple efforts and aspirations.
