<DIV>joelle,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>even I am not really inside the subjects discussed at that rome meeting, I need to say you that the sentence you wrote here - "where I thought we would go was not the place where we needed to be, and I had to decide how to create a space for what was needed" was present a lot of times during my life and now reading it said by a person that is so far from me (and that do no knows me) sounded more strong and has made me think about its concepts</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>it is not a bad thing, on the contrary, it is really interesting to be around persons that bring me good and strong thoughts making me forget - for some moments - the reality of the daily routine.</DIV>

<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><< Polanyi once wrote (defining tacit knowledge) that "we know more that we</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>can say". On myself and on the others I use to compare what one says and</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>what one does (how one walks the talk). And I always think that what one</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>does is more important then what one says he does. Sometimes the two things</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>are completely different - even opposite. In some others, like in the case</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>of ho, the doing just slightly clarifies (and slightly transforms) the saying.</DIV>

<DIV>Artur--</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>In my 20+ years working as a facilitator (in Open Space and other forms),</DIV>
<DIV>there have been a number of times when I have realized, on the last morning of a</DIV>
<DIV>meeting, that where I thought we would go was not the place where we needed to</DIV>
<DIV>be, and I had to decide how to create a space for what was needed. I think</DIV>
<DIV>that the rule book can only take us so far, and then we must be responsive to</DIV>
<DIV>the group and to our own intuition.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I also know that in teaching novices, we always "know more than we can say."</DIV>
<DIV>The handbook must cover the basics, but it cannot cover every possible</DIV>
<DIV>situation.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The group in Rome was doing difficult and painful work--maybe far more</DIV>
<DIV>painful than they had anticipated. So Harrison's intervention, asking them to</DIV>
<DIV>choose again whether they wished to continue this difficult work, felt appropriate</DIV>
<DIV>to me.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My two cents' worth--</DIV>
