<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What i do more and more now is to
respect and listen carefully everybody's opinion, suggestion and
fear.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I don't judge or fight with it.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If they/ he /she are/is afraid......there must
be a good reason for this.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It's more important to respect and deal
with this fear (even if you don't solve it) than to open
space.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I agree that it's a good idea to take yourself
out of the relation between this lady and the committee. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I also suggest you to show
her you really listen to her suggestion and deal </FONT><FONT
face=Arial size=2>with her fear and unsecurity.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Her letting go of control and opening space are the
best ways to start a new and healthy organization where</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>everbody would willingly take part...</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tell her ...this might seem a long and undirect
way...but much more healthy and secure for an organization to
start</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I wish she sees this and enjoys the ost
process.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>let us know what happens.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>

out of the way here, and letting the Committee decide what to do with the
madam’s plan and to have her experience a limited-audience re-thinking of her
assumptions makes sense. The “document” to be produced by the steering
committee might be the way to acknowledge her idea while contextualizing it in
what might still be an open-ish process for the large group. Whether it can be
a true open space will depend on her willingness to have her plan become
<I><SPAN style="FONT-STYLE: italic">an</SPAN></I> idea rather than <I><SPAN
