Welcome, Mike c (this list is getting awfully crowded with mikes and michaels), tell me the name for that "awful feeling I have when I see my contribution getting systematically picked to pieces and given back to me in tatters" and "for when people truly act with integrity"
And remember, you are not opening the space, its the sponsor who does that. That attitude and posture and insight will keep you out of a lot of trouble.

I work as an environmental educator with communities and have realised my need for better facilitation skills for a little while now. I duly trained in Open Space with Helen Patterson in early March this year. Since then I have opened space three times. Little has prepared me for the change that is currently taking place with myheart, my head and eyes!. Everywhere I look I see space opening and closing! I have a name for that ; conversely I have a name I used to think I was a great facilitatator, could read a group, could intervene just at the right moment, could hold it together under huge adversity...; I can tell you I was tired! Big question: How do people survive the heirarchical structures we have out there? How do people live with/out open space in their own lives? Now I'm on this trail I really don't want to be living and working in any other way.
