Hi Tania, Great to hear you are having fun with Open Space Tania and welcome to the OSLIST. As Harrison has observed many times, self organisation delivers not only high performance but 'high play' and I am sensing some of the 'playfulness' of Open Space in your story of small beginnings. Best wishes, Michael Wood

Well, just to share; thank you Michael Wood for introducing me to the whole world of OS. The following has been way cool: 1. Parish Council opened to self engaging systems and they engaged alright!! The passion and responsibility was in the room and we engaged together to make meaning of what we are to do and be for God's mission. The only thing on the Agenda was the financial summary to keep us accountable to our Diocese - the rest of the agenda came from the floor - literally!! 2. Advent Study group has been wrestling together with scripture to make meaning as we apply the OS principles - no one is in control, there is no power plays- we are all comfortably being disturbed out of complacency 3. These tools through OS technology have been sooooo empowering to all leaders 4. Every circle I host has meaning 5. I have been applying these principles to my life and the need to feel in control is not there any more - I feel freer!! Yay! Early days yet, but this whole process has changed by life. Thanks again.
