Hello Wave Riders and Open Space practitioners in Western Australia
Some of us will be having a gathering or something on the morning of WEDNESDAY
JUNE 22nd between 10am - 12noon at CRANKED Cafe in Leederville
www.cranked.net.au/
Anyone who is in the area is invited to come along
Agenda - whatever you chose to bring about "Wave Riding: Leadership For High
Performance in a Self Organising World"
and the practice/facilitation/sponsoring of Open Space
Our intention is to create regular such spaces at the right time in the right
place for the right people to show up.
There is a growing anticipation gathering momentum in the universe that
Harrison Owen may visit us in Perth sometime in mid-April next year....watch
this space :)
AND....have you heard about Peggy Holman's new book - see below.
I, for one, would be interested in having some discussion about this with
anyone who cares to join me....we can organise something when the time is right
:)
Hope to see some of you on the 22nd
Cheers
Brendan

We must be the change we wish to see in the world

Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity just won the 2011 gold
Nautilus Book Award for Conscious Business/Leadership!
From the Nautilus Book Award site:
"The Nautilus Awards recognize books that promote spiritual growth, conscious
living & positive social change, while at the same time they stimulate the
'imagination' and offer the reader 'new possibilities' for a better life and a
better world."
Previous winners include Deepak Chopra, His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Riane
Eisler, Thich Nhat Hanh, Jean Houston, David Korten, Frances Moore Lappe',
Eckhart Tolle, Lynne Twist, Andrew Weil.
Nice company!
If you haven't yet bought a copy, consider this award a reason to do so. And
if you already have a copy, get one for a friend through:
Amazon, Berrett-Koehler, Barnes and Noble, or local bookstores.
This is the first award I've ever received for my work. The feeling is sweet.
I had a hunch the book was something special, so it's affirming when someone
else thinks so too!
About the Book
Engaging Emergence is a roadmap for tackling complex challenges. It provides
stories, principles, and practices for inviting people to come together and
turn disruptions into possibilities.

Since Engaging Emergence came out, I've been getting my feet wet doing talks,
webinars, and workshops. I've discovered the fun of Twitter. I've made some
new friends and gotten to know a few old friends better. In all, it's been a
great launch, thanks to many of you.
So join me...
