>> Hi everyone!

>> Over the past few months I have been working with a Sponsor connected
>> with international scientists. She is passionate about inviting people
>> to have new conversations around how we “do” science; how science is
>> funded; the future of science and education; and the emerging trends
>> leading into the next era of science. The goal is to experientially
>> engage a highly diverse group of participants (scientists, policy
>> makers and change agents) in ways that invite self-organization,
>> collaboration and shared leadership – as opposed to how people
>> interact in your typical conference. Nationally and internationally,
>> science faces many urgent challenges not unlike the system breakdowns
>> that we see in so many areas. Certainly there is a sense that the
>> basic ingredients for an Open Space are there not the least of which
>> real issues of concerns, high levels of complexity, diverse groups,
>> great urgency. That said, the Sponsor feels a certain degree of
>> trepidation about how independent-minded, self-directed scientists
>> might respond to Open Space. Not a new question for any of us I know.
>>
>> It would be helpful if you could share any experiences you’ve had
>> working with Scientists, globally or nationally.
>> Which sectors? Themes? Context? Hurdles? How did it go overall?
>>
>> Any and all insights appreciated. Will send you buckets of smiles and
>> sunshine from Florida in return.
