<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Dear friends in Open Space</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Last Friday we rode the wave of high
performance together with a bunch of almost 60 people. In the un-presence of
“the man with the hat” we had to ride the waves ourselves and boy
it was a ride. At </span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>9 am</span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> people were arriving to have some
coffee and to register – and of course the networking began straight
away. Some old friends meeting again, some new interesting connections and lots
of spirit and interest around the theme of our gathering.</span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>So the design of our meeting was to
start with a little transfer-in, inviting people to get to know each other
(sitting in small circles of 4-5). Then to set the stage we had the great
fortune to have world premiere for a video recording we made the previous week
in </span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>Canada</span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>... Our collegue Rachel Assuncao was
our producer and Larry Peterson “storyteller” sharing from his rich
experiences and his deep knowledge around the power of selforganization,
touching on several of the aspects HO has shared about in the book. A couple of
times we stopped the video, inviting participants to reflect and also sharing
some brief examples from </span></font><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Sweden</span></font><font size=2

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'> </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>After this first hour we had some
coffee and then off into Open Space. Agneta and Anna Pia facilitated and people
thrived in exploring these issues during the rest of the day. We had plenty of
open spaces in the venue chosen (Uppsala Konsert och Kongress) –that we
used for break outs. Before our closing circle we gave the participants an
opportunity to reflect on the experiences regarding the process, using the
Medicine Wheel as a framework. It was a nice way to get at summary of their
experiences regarding the process and it was a good fit to the theme.</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial'>Closing circle was profound, people
sharing from their hearts. I am sure there will be some interesting follow up
– both individually and maybe also new invitations....</span></font></p>
