<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>It’s been a whirlwind of
Open Space living over the past 4 to 6 weeks. First introduced to the concept
at an Art of Hosting event in Florida last November; then joined the OS list
community and became mesmerized with the depth and content of story sharing
from around the world. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>In mid-April, I along
with two business colleagues, attended Diane Gibeault’s Open Space training
workshop in Ottawa Canada and we became totally hooked. The generosity of
spirit in the OS community was in full bloom as Diane imbued us with her
passion and depth of experience with Open Space. We came back with many tips
and tools and the conviction that can only come from having lived in the
self-organizing world of Open Space for three days. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>A few weeks later, I was
travelling from Florida to Canada to lend a hand to a fellow trainee from our
Ottawa training as she prepared to host her first Open Space with a diverse
forestry group of about 30 people. With butterflies in our stomach, we plunged
right in and had the opportunity to witness what happens when people’s passions
are engaged. Some of the participants held high ranking leadership positions,
some worked in the forest, others in government or university; some had PhDs or
Masters degree, others had limited education, but in those moments of Open
Space, all were equal. What a gift to witness their self-organizing energy and
shared passion. It was a great success. </span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:35.4pt'><font size=3
face="Times New Roman"><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Now I’ve just come back
from the Wave Rider event on leadership and self-organizing held in Washington
State. I am brimming with these life changing experiences and from the bottom
of my heart, I want to thank all of the Open Space trail blazers (or Wave
Riders) from Harrison Owen, to Diane Gibeault, to my many new friends and all
those who are always “paying it forward” in sharing what they know and
do. Thank you! thank you! thank you!<font color="#4f81bd"><span
