3. Liquid café

4. Each participant sits at a table where a question is posed. Participants can choose to stay at the table and discuss...or move to another table of their choice. All can write/doodle on the ‘tablecloths’ to record their thoughts…be as creative as possible - make it a work of art! Liquid café Method

5.  Whoever comes are the right people  Whatever happens is the only thing that could have  Whenever it starts is the right time  When it's over, it's over Owen, H (1997) Open Space Technology: A User's Guide, Second edition. Berrett-Koehler Publishers Inc. San Francisco. Principles

6. Host: One person willing to take responsibility to call the conversation, invite others in and make sure something gets harvested Participant: Anyone who is wants to stay the whole time and participate fully. Bees: Those who move from conversation to conversation cross-pollinating the learning. Butterfly: Those who may not want to be in any conversation but may observe. A new, unexpected conversation may happen when two butterflies meet. Liquid café Roles

8. Innovation Transformation but no innovation Innovation & transformation No transformation and no innovation Innovation & some transformation Business-driven methods e.g. continuous improvement, BPR & TQM methodologies Incremental change No strong external drivers for change Organisational inertia Strong drivers for change Funding oriented more towards local transformations Transformations not always embedded institutionally Relationship between innovation and transformation in HE HE-specific innovative “change & embedding” processes & techniques Long-term “smart” partnerships (collaboration not competition - schools, faculties, institutions, employers, sectors, international) “Business-like” approaches 12 34

9. Reaching the Early Majority

10. 12345 Distribution of Adopters – Rogers, 1983 The members of each group have their own social and psychological characteristics that underlie their willingness to accept, adapt to, and implement change. Early adopters Innovators Early majority Late majority Laggards

11. Early Majority Late Majority Laggards Early Adopters Innovators The ‘Chasm’ Number of Adopters Time 2.5%13.5%34% 16% Critical mass for widespread adoption is thought to be 15% to 20% Early Market Mainstream Market Late Market Adapted from Rogers (1983), Moore (1991), Geoghegan (1994)

12. Though people don’t cross the chasm, we can try to reduce its size so that the rate of adoption doesn’t stall too much as adoption moves from the early adopters to the early majority. The earlier we get the early majority on board, the narrower we have made the chasm.

13. How can we ‘shrink the gap’ between the two key groups of people?

14. Favour revolutionary change Visionary Project orientated Risk takers Willing to experiment Generally self- sufficient Favour evolutionary change Pragmatic Process orientated Risk averse Want proven applications May need significant support
