By inviting anyone who cares, ᆞthose who care emerge and save the whole eventually.
I would recommend Open Space Online that has been field-tested rigorously and extensively to open space of the Consciousness. Wishing all the best to all those who care, spark Director Open Space Institute of Korea http://openspace.kr 2011. 11. 19. 오전 8:59에 "Birgitt Williams" <[email protected]>님이 작성: Dear Suzanne, Annette, and others interested in this stream,**** Suzanne and Annette..I cheer you on as you have these big events, invite people to engagement and emergence and being open to possibilities. I am relieved that your events will not be called Open Space or Open Space Technology. You are both onto something else. I also, as a purist of sorts, believe that the Universe as created by our Creator was created as what this community calls Open Space…it is not the creation of Harrison or any of us. It is there for the remembering and for our creativity. There is a lot of space open in the world, what I think of as very full of possibilities, ready to be formed into probabilities by our approach to it. If our approach is too complicated, we do not have the maximum freedom for the possibilities for creativity. If our approach is simple, such as Open Space Technology, we carve out a container in the great open space of the universe in which our finite minds can grasp something from the infinite sea of possibilities. As humans, we need the orientation points provided by some type of container/framework. The container that seems to give us the most freedom is a circle, and in the virtual world, the imagination of a circle. I do not think we create Open Space. I think we create containers so that the Open Space of infinite possibilities can be formed and shaped by the humans that engage with it. Imagine, if you would, that our work is to figure out the right container for the humans involved to work with the Open Space that our Creator created. If words like Creator are difficult, then think of the Universe as a big open space of infinite conscious energy. Our job is to learn to work with this energy, as individuals and as collectives.**** ** ** World Café would have been a good option, Suzanne. It too is brilliant, and works with this conscious energy. **** ** ** Open Space Technology would have been a good option. In this instance, as I wrote in my reply to Julie, I recommend Gabriella Ender’s OpenSpace-Online Software. The team has replicated, after huge investment and testing, the Open Space Technology meeting to the extent that it is possible in a virtual environment. I don’t think any other developers could do such a good job. One reason is that Gabriella first embraced and came to deeply understand Open Space Technology. **** ** ** Yet, when the limitations of time and technology, or perceived limitations suggest that something different would be needed than either of these two methods, it is time to create and innovate as you have done Suzanne. You are not using an existing method, and you are giving a good go to an experiment…I look forward to the report back.**** ** ** Warmly and with good wishes to you both with your events,**** Birgitt**** ** ** ** ** [image: tingsha]Birgitt Williams**** Author Genuine Contact Way**** Co-owner of the Genuine Contact program**** President and Senior Consultant, **** Dalar International Consultancy, Inc.**** www.dalarinternational.com**** ** ** Note: picture of the bells that have journeyed to numerous countries with me for twenty-two years as an international consultant. During the closing circle of every meeting, everyone in the meeting has held these bells. They have now been held by thousands of people, all doing their part to create life nurturing conditions for humanity. The bells have also been held in blessing and in prayer by countless people, who bless all who ever hold them, with the journey of the bells uniting all of their energies to make a difference for humanity, one person at a time, one organization at a time, one business at a time, one community at a time.**** ** ** ** ** ** ** *From:* [email protected] [mailto: [email protected]] *On Behalf Of *Suzanne Daigle *Sent:* Friday, November 18, 2011 8:15 AM To: World wide Open Space Technology email list *Subject:* [OSList] Fwd: Your advice please!**** Dear Annette, ( a very long post giving background and detail -- my apologies) I was one of th... _______________________________________________ OSList mailing list To post send emails to [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] To subscribe or manage your subscription click below: http://lists.openspacetech.org/listinfo.cgi/oslist-openspacetech.org
