[OSList] Article about OS a question

[Catherine Pfaehler]

Dear Phelim

 

I sometimes say that OS is dangerous, because it actually does work and does
have unpredictable effects. One predictable effect is community building.

 

Best, Catherine

Dear Phelim,

This amazing endeavor will take on a life of its own.  I just know it!  Be
prepared to be surprised.  The Olympics of Open Space! 

My few words popping out of my head without any rehearsal. Lots more that
could be said, a lifetime of words with heart and passion yet for now, plop
these in somewhere if they fit or serve to inspire. 

Open Space is about "opening space" in our busy lives to discuss, share,
explore and get to work on the most important questions and issues in our
organizations, communities, sectors and groups. 

People who come -- all are invited -- are those who have a passion for those
questions and issues (no need to be an expert) and who are also willing to
take responsibility on that which matters most to them and others.


Hoping many respond to your request Phelim as the multiple contributions
will fuel us all in the process!  As you write, please do so from your heart
and your experience with no worry about representing a whole community.  If
it was me, I might feel a tad bit nervous about writing something like this
that seemed so big and far-reaching.  Yet what a wonderful opportunity to
spread the word about this wonderful thing that we call Open Space which has
been there since the beginning of time.


Suzanne

Dear Phelim

I suggest it would be best 

tell them just that, what often had been said

and mention just that, what normally get mentioned.

Because, it´s all very old and it is repeating its dynamic every the time
again.

 

My two cents

Dear Friends,

I've been asked to write an article for the culture professionals network on
the Guardian newspaper website. It will be about our upcoming tour of
"Devoted and Disgruntled: What are we going to do about theatre? " roadshow.
20 open space events over three months all making up one big conversation.
see the tour here..

www.devotandanddisgruntled.com  

So of course the article will be about open space. 

I'm thinking on the things I want to say and was wondering if people had a
thought about this. 

What about Open space do you wish got said in the media that doesn't often
get said? 

What would you like me to mention that doesn't  normally get mentioned? 

Best 

Phelim
