Report available - Girl Scout Open Space for over 1,600 & Strategy Cafes for thousands more

[Christine Whitney Sanchez]

What a great idea, Michael.  I just sent that suggestion to more than 100
Smooth Operators along with the reminder that they might want to join this
list.    

Warm wishes from balmy Phoenix.

Dear Christine and Claudia,
all of those that you trained in open space technology and that participated
in this huge process will transport this way of working and being into all
parts of the girl scout movement and eventually beyond into all segments of
us-society and worldwide, great!
Imagine those girl scouts interested in working more with our approach
including themselves in the open space world map, showing themselves and
their open space skills. They are all invited!
Look at Slovenia
http://www.openspaceworldmap.org/
(its a tiny country, so use the zoom)
where 4 out of the 7 entries there are scouts...in this particular case
especially trained for open space in the outdoors.
Greetings from Berlin
