<DIV><SPAN class=980434613-15112004><FONT face=Verdana color=#800080>We once had
an Open Space for a govermental organization. There where many people fired
(also a CEO) and peolple where afraid of loss of jobs, making mistakes etc. We
had an two day Open Space. I really insisted on a twodays gathering. In the
first 2-3 sessions peolple where really back in the past and morning about what
happened. As we had some more time the seesions later taht day and next day
where more about future plans. The sponsors was first very disappointed,
especially the first night. He was new and didn't understand that peolpe kept
talking about the past and what had happened. At the end of the two days
gathering, he realized that he only could move forward bij giving space to
passed sorrows.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

people took their own time to leave the past behind and focus on the now and the
future. In the end nearly theire as an atmosspher of clearing and readiness to
work toghether. </SPAN></FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The part of my trip to Bogota that paid the bill
was a class I taught at Los Andes University. I was asked a question
about bringing all levels of a business together in an OS when it is a fear
based environment. While I have seen this work quite well, I drew a
blank on a really compelling story. Since this is a common issue in
corporate settings, does any have a really good story that addresses this
question?</FONT></DIV>
