OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU<BR><B>Subject:</B> [OSLIST] Opening space 24X7
--Wave Riders Unite!<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV class=Section1>
<P class=MsoNormal>Several days ago I sent a note to what I thought was going to
be a small group of friends, inviting thinking about opening space every day,
what that might mean, and how to accomplish all that in specifics. 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.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>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. Rather
like taking credit for the power and effect of gravity -- which will continue no
matter what we do!<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Anyhow, I believe the community that gathers here online (and
anybody else who cares to join us) is uniquely positioned to engage in this
discussion not just at a theoretical level but at a very solid practical level.
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. I
think this is a conversation that needs to happen, not to the exclusion of all
others, but this is where my passion is.<o:p></o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>Anyhow I invite you to share and think about our common
experience -- and let our experience be our guide. As a starting point we might
just begin with invitation. What would happen if all our projects began with
invitation as opposed to assignment?<o:p></o:p></P>
