If failure means that we didn't get precisely the folks we wanted to come -- there could be a number of reasons for that, not all of them bad. For example it could be that the issue we were so excited about really didn't have all that much going for it. And all those folks who failed to respond positively were just brighter than we were. Our "failed" invitation simply saved a lot of time and energy which might better be applied to something else. And just suppose all those folks did come out of some sense of "should" or "ought" -- and the whole affair turned out to be just as flat as they thought it might. Now -- how happy are the folks?

In effect, I was taking off from my book "Wave Rider" which is my best shot on the subject to date -- with the expectation that there is much more "out there" in terms of ideas and actions. Along the way I did suggest that OST (as the meeting approach) might be getting in the way of the larger discussion. Even worse, I facetiously (jokingly) invited everybody to join "The Imperial Society of Wave Riders!" Well you can imagine the uproar this caused. Here I am suggesting that we eliminate OST and become imperialists! Not a good day -- but I do think the proposed discussion has merit. In fact from where I sit it may just be the most important discussion we could have.</span><span style="color: black; "><o:p></o:p></span></div></div></div><div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black; "> </span><span style="color: black; "><o:p></o:p></span></div></div></div><div><div><div style="margin-top: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; margin-left: 0in; font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; "><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; color: black; ">Given the state of the world (no need for detailed analysis) superior human performance achieved in a peaceful fashion seems like a very good idea. Or put another way how do we find the intelligence and energy to deal with the massive issues we face without killing each other? I believe that the 25 year Open Space experiment has clearly shown that superior performance in a peaceful manner can be achieved any time we open space. It may not be perfect, but it works better than just about anything else, and for sure it is a lot less work. The reason for all this is that we are not really doing anything. Rather, we are inviting the system (business, family, organization) to do what it can do all by itself. Self organize. We are just helping people to notice that -- and when they do magic seems to happen. Peace and high performance show up. If we are honest about it, I think we might realize that OST is in some real ways a fraud and a joke, at least it becomes all that if we take credit for the power and effect of the process, and the special way that we might "do" it.

We have the shared experience of hundreds of thousands of Open Spaces. And we have something else -- the shared experience of life in our community. As the world might see it the "Open Space Community" is a pretty strange thing. It has no boundaries, no formal organization, leadership, or corporate status. Membership is pretty much whoever shows up -- and the party has been going on for 25 years. Odd but very effective. Indeed there are multiple formal organizations in the world who with might greater effort have accomplished substantially less. Think about it! Multiple Global and regional meetings. A world wide reach. More training programs than you can name. And absolutely nobody is in charge. There has never been a Business Plan, and if a budget exists it has never been found. Is it all just a gossamer dream, a fanciful delusion, or something much deeper and more important? I vote for the latter.
