And it would seem, if people like Stuart Kauffmann and others at the Santa Fe Institute are correct – that Complex Adaptive Systems come into being in response to certain very simple pre-conditions, which if present lead naturally to order, organization, and systems. This, as I understand it, constitutes the matrix or environment in which just about everything takes place. So – while it is quite true that we as individuals may make best effort to “organize” something (business, social system, whatever) we always do that in the environment of self organization. To the extent that we understand, cooperate with, and leverage the phenomenon of self-organization, our work will work well. To the extent that we try to swim against the stream, we are likely to end up on the rocks. And should we ever think that there are no forces in the world but our own effort (I am in charge and do all the organizing – after all it is MY organization!) we are basically deluding ourselves. In this context, Open Space (Technology) becomes a wonderful training ground in which to learn how to do what we do anyhow – just better.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 0.5in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy; color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy; color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">I am wondering about your opinion of the relationship of these universal laws and Open Space.

After all, we have been getting along for about 14 billion years without a facilitator in sight. And all sorts of highly complex organizations emerge and do their business every day, thanks to self-organization – and with no facilitators. For example the “feeding organizations” in human communities, even very large ones like New York City emerged with out a planning group, executive committee, or CEO. Nobody created them, and nobody is in charge. Some folks try, and they may help around the edges (Health Depts. limit food poisoning) – but at the end of the day, the system (as a total complex organism) runs pretty much by itself.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 0.5in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="2" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="2" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">But facilitators can be helpful – in general and in Open Space. However, I think it is important to notice what they actually do, and don’t do. They don’t organize anything, or at least not much of anything. What they do is to remind us of what we already knew but tend to forget (Four Principles and One Law) and then (under the heading of Holding Space) stand as a (usually) silent witness to the focus and intent of the group. Actually, it may go a little deeper than that. I think they stand as a silent witness to the integrity of the group, reminding everybody (without a word) that they must be true to themselves, follow what has heart and meaning, connect their passion to responsibility – and then it will probably occur that the group will get where it needs to go, even if nobody had a clue in the beginning where the destination was. Or something.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 0.5in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy; color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal"><FONT size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy; color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">And finally, I am wondering about your opinion of why we do not have world peace if we are self organizing</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV><FONT size="2" color="navy" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:navy; color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 128); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal"><FONT size="2" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 13.3333px; ">I truly believe that the process of self-organization drives towards Peace (under the heading of Searching for Fitness with ourselves and our environment). The fact that we have some bumps along the road usually come from very natural causes, all of which are essential parts of the process. Things like Chaos, Confusion and Conflict. However, there are also very natural, built in mechanisms which enable us to deal with the painful aspects of Chaos, Confusion, and conflict – all called Griefwork. Where we get in trouble, and the cart heads for the canyon is when we think we are in charge and attempt to gain control as in My Plan, My Way. And should MY Plan, and My Way take over, space shuts down, and life ceases. Just runs out of room.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV><FONT size="2" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size: 10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 13.3333px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);

But I guess where I am coming from is a (growing) conclusion that we live in a self-organizing world which has certain operative forces and mechanisms – and how we feel about all that is to some extent a different issue. The analogy for me would be the force of gravity, which effects, in one way or another, just about everything we do (at least in this physical realm). If I see a beautiful woman and run towards her, that probably has a lot to do with my heart, but the fact that I am running and not flying (like a bird) has everything to do with gravity.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 1in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="3" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="3" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; ">To me it is important to understand that much of what we take to be wonderful and magic in Open Space is still magic and truly wondrous – AND is all very much part of a larger process which was here long before Open Space and would continue to exist were Open Space (Technology) to vanish. This thought also extends the magic to every day life, or if you like, makes it very clear (to me) that Open Space is a 24X7X365 business. Yes it is true that we may intensify/focus the experience when we “do” an Open Space – but we could “do” the same thing every day of our life.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 1in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="3" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; "> </SPAN></SPAN></FONT><BR class="khtml-block-placeholder"></DIV><P class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:1.0in; font-family: Times New Roman; font-size: 16px; "><FONT size="3" color="red" face="Arial"><SPAN style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:red; color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-size: 16px; "><SPAN class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0); font-family: Arial; font-size: 16px; ">In dealing with clients and other such people, I start from the position that doing an Open Space is nothing strange, new, or different. It is all Open Space. It is all self organization – the problem is that we ordinarily just don’t do it very well.

It is also true that this particular client situation will demand everything I have and a lot more. The good news is that I will grow with the occasion. The other side is that there will doubtless be moments of pure terror and no small amount of pain. The thought has occurred to me that maybe at the age of 70, I don’t need to take that sort of trip any more. But I have never been very good at avoiding such “opportunities” before, and I see no reason to expect that prudence and sanity will suddenly be mine.</SPAN></SPAN></FONT></P><DIV style="margin-left: 1in;
