Global Responses to Greetings from Taiwan

[ICA Taiwan]

Dear Open Space Colleagues,

Last week Harrison Owen's visit to Asia and 
Taiwan opened up whole new arenas of possibility 
for high performance and innovation in companies, 
government, NGOs, community groups and 
individuals.  It was an intense week of deep 
exploration into challenges and opportunities and 
sharing of extraordinary stories.  The following 
is a message that went out to the global Open 
Space network and some of the responses that came 
back.  People are eager to hear more stories from 
Taiwan.  What are your stories?

"Infinite possibility, challenges, fun and wonder 
have abounded in Asia this past week.  Harrison 
arrived in Taipei from Tokyo and was immediately 
whisked off to the south.   Accompanied by 6 
lovely ladies he held a series of presentations 
on Innovation for about 80 people each at 2 
Universities.  Then came back to Taipei by van to 
see some of the countryside and plane for speed 
to another at the Civil Service Development 
Center for another 80+.  Immediately following 
that we launched a 2 1/2 day on Opening Space for 
High Performance with a greatly diverse group of 
84:  5 from Korea, 1 Vietnam, Taiwan aboriginal 
community residents, business/government/NGO 
professionals, and graduate students ranging in 
age from 25 to 71.  Added to this mix was a full 
time film crew, individual participant interviews 
and book signing of the Users Guide in Chinese. 
This non-stop whirlwind was gratefully punctuated 
for Harrison by acupuncture, foot reflexology, 
full body massage, VIP quarters a few steps from 
the meeting room for  quiet naps and never ending 
Chinese food.  After a few days more on the 
informal side with special home-cooking and 
hanging out with friends, he's off to China for a 
few days of program. 

As soon as the host crew catches their collective 
breath, pictures and stories will be available on 
line!"


Responses:
Wow, thanks for sharing. I think you folks are doing so very great
over there. And Harrison too, of course;-)
I just returned back from facilitating a training in Norway - in a beautiful
place just next to Stavanger. 6 participants excited to learn and eager to
open space. That was good too!
I would love to see "The book" in Chinese, I'd better go look at it!
Warmest regards
Thomas  (Sweden)

When I read your account of your lovely events I 
got this feeling of warmth and gratefulness 
inside. To me it was reassuring, that it´s still 
else than " money, that makes the world go 
around, go around .....". That musical song 
sticks with me !!!
Best wishes in your work.
Love from beautiful autumn/fall colours in Denmark.

These are FANTASTIC news, thank you so much for sharing with us!
CONGRATULATION! The way you organized everything 
sounds very professional and I am looking very 
much forward to see the pictures. How exciting, 
that now the User-Guide exists as well in 
Chinese! What a terrific next step! Harrison you 
are WONDERFUL!
Warmly,
Gabriela (Germany)

Thank you for letting us feel what it was like... Great report!
To master such a dense program, one must really leave responsibility where
it belongs... Of course, not difficult for Harrison... :)
Love, Catherine (Germany)
