A very different type of request

[Harrison Owen]

My suggestions: 

"The Doughnut Hole". Sounds like nothing, but it is everything to doughnut
lovers.

Or how about. . . 

"Hole in the Ground." A Safe place to be, when the going gets tough.

"Hole in the head?"  We don't want to go there :-)

Hey -- I understand. This is not cool Madison Ave. stuff! I just got
thinking about something that was nothing and everything -- all at the same
time. Don't mind me, David. And good luck on the venture!

I don't believe I have every posted here before but have to admit that I
have enjoyed the conversations over the years.  As someone who has
facilitated Open Space events, and have tried to work in Open Space whenever
possible, I am transitioning into another venture!!.  Along with a few other
like minded souls, we are creating a consulting company that will have a
mission to  be socially responsible in all work that we generate.  Through
partnerships in the private , NGO and Not for Profit sectors,  we hope to
create synergies that will benefit those that we are able to serve.  I can
share more with those who are interested as to how we plan to create this
work.   We have potential partners in Africa, Denmark, Washington and
Canada. We share a vision in common to,  create and work within
organizations  through Open Space and Open Sourcing.  In moving forward, we
need to come up with a new name, a name that symbolizes our vision for work.
A company that is in many ways virtual, given the geographic locations of
our partners, the fact that we want to share leadership, grow ideas and
services through an open space consulting company.  We want to continue to
attract individuals who will move the vision forward.   So....the
challenge......  what should we call ourselves.....  Any thoughts, ideas,
ways to approach the naming game, would be welcome.
