<DIV><!--StartFragment --> Yesterday I watched 35 Cleveland area
facilitators engage each other for the first time in two hours of conversations
that participants today described as "electric", "enlightening", and
"outstanding." They represented government and grassroots organizations,
independent corporate types, a Taoist healer, and CPA. There were people from
every generation representing every continent. No one managed, led, directed,
controlled or facilitated any of it, including of course the Open Space
conversation on raising perceptions of the value of facilitation in the
communities represented. It was people trusting themselves to be themselves in
new conversations. Ordinary magic.</DIV>
