[OSList] Invitation using youtube

[R Chaffe]

Yes Brendan it will be quite a challenge for the organisation that is so strongly hierarchical.  Where there is a strong tendency to defer decisions to “those above”, and doing what I am told.  The current issues relating to the Catholic Church in particular, demonstrate how this system has failed catastrophically.   

We can but hope that the organisation does not obstruct the forces that open space will release.  There is nothing as powerful as an idea whose time has come.   Our Open Space community needs to be as one with those who have the privilege to attend the event and all must know that the right people are there and that there is space for all and their ideas/issues/ attitudes / aspirations.

I am sure Father Brian will be smiling on the event and doing what he can to make it as good as possible.  I am not sure what he will be telling “the Bishop” as in the past some of the messages he sent were somewhat different to the messages others got!

I can’t hardly wait to see the outputs from the gathering.

Regards
Rob

I think it’s really good and thought I’s share it with you. If the OSLIST  mucks up the formatting for the youtube clip, please email me and I’ll be happy to send you the link by email.
