<p class=MsoPlainText>Thank you very much for your reminder and promotion.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>I

<p class=MsoPlainText><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>That
I feel it as a big solidarity gesture of your part, who makes me feel a debt of
gratitude with all of you there. <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><i><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>Moreover

Asunto: [OSLIST] 2nd European OS Learning Exchange 2011</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>Dear Suzanne, Juliane, Luca, Aniko, Edit and you others,
the 2nd European Open Space Learning Exchange has been moved from September
2011 (it was planned some time before the 2011 WOSonOS in Chile appeared,
happily!) to May 2011.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>This way it is not close to our worldwide gathering in
Chile in October of 2011.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>There will be a prelude/reception in the Evening of May
17 with the Learning Exchange beginning in the morning of May 18 and ending
around noon on May 20. It will take place on the Island of Sardinia...and,
among other things, I am sure there will be a breakout session on "Going
to Chile in October!".<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText><o:p> </o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>> Dear Suzanne,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> you and your Dad are invited to the Second European
Learning Exchange <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> on Open Space (these events take place in those
years when WOSonOS is <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> not in Europe) which will be in Sardinia in
September of 2011. Gerardo <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> and Jo and Jutta visited Sardinia earlier this year
to have a look at <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> various possible venues...all beautiful.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> I do hope that Gerardo and his local colleagues will
come up with some <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> more details soon...I did have the postcard of the
beach (one of the<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> venues) up at the WOSonOS and several people
indicated interest by <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> signing in (Juliane Ade,Jo Toepfer and me from
Berlin, Luca Simeone <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>> from Italy, Aniko Karl and Edit Moldovan from
Hungary).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Hello to my dear Open Space family,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> This is a story about a daughter, a father and
Open Space. Something <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> happened in Berlin in May, but the story started
a long time ago and <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> with buckets of gratitude, I want to gift it to
all of you, my Open <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Space family, hoping what happened to me also
happens to you.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> While at the WOSonOS in Berlin, I happily
spotted the Open Space <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Technology Guide in Italian on the Access Queen
Auction table. I was <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> determined to bid and win this valuable book
with the intent of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> giving it to my dad, an Italian aficionado who
is now fluent in <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Italian after more than a decade of learning the
language, traveling <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> to Italy to visit many Etruscan ruins and an
avid reader of Italian <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> newspapers on the internet. He is 80 years old.
I overbid the young <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Michael Pannwitz a few times; he graciously
stopped bidding when he <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> saw how much I wanted it. As I was collecting
my prize, I had the <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> good fortune of running into Gerardo De
Luzenberger, who had <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> translated this wonderful guide. I asked him if
he would inscribe <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> it for my father which he did, in Italian. I
would have to wait <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> until I returned to Florida to know what he
wrote. My intention then <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> was for dad to read Gerardo’s note and
perhaps scan a few pages in <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> the book, which hopefully might give him a
better understanding of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Open Space. Lord knows he had heard me talk
about it often enough, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> like a smitten teenager with a new boyfriend.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> I have struggled to explain OS to dad (and many
others) in terms that <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> he could relate to. As a retired radiologist
and student of life in <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> everything from science, to ancient history, art
and music , Dad has <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> always been someone more focused on data, facts,
and accuracy than on <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> the workings of people dynamics, collaboration,
and large system <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> transformation which he sometimes described as
politics with too many <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> controlling leaders – probably lots of
truth to his assessments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Throughout my life, dad and I had had more than
our share of talking <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> “at” each other rather than
“with” each other in the ways of many <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> daughters who want to be like their dads yet
fail to realize that <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> it's more about being yourself and living the
best of who YOU are. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> That said, our debates are similar to those
everywhere with facts and <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> wanting to prove something blocking us from the
essence of what's <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> important..<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Well things are different now between us because
of Open Space. Yes <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> we still talk about facts but we also talk about
the "other stuff"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> too. We share in ways we have never shared
before, with an easiness <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> and joy of just being together. He tells me
stories of his youth, of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> his life, dozens and dozens of them, some I've
heard, many I have <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> not.. We laugh and we share with mom listening
on quietly as <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> entertained by the stories as I am. What's also
really different now <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> is how interested he is in the details and
essence of the work I am <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> doing. Still sometimes hard for me to explain it
to him but I'm <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> getting better at it.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> The ITALIAN Open Space guide was a big
breakthrough and I still smile <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> at what happened. Well dad read the ENTIRE book
from COVER to COVER.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> He was glowing in his assessment of how easy it
had been to read, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> describing the excellence of the translation
which according to him, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> captured the essence and feel of the English
language in which it had <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> been conceived now written in the new language
that he loves. Was I <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> ever surprised but should I have been?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> And then here’s where the fun begins. Boy
did I get grilled! All of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> a sudden he was interrogating me about the Open
Spaces I had been <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> involved in this past year, asking if they had
fully met the criteria <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> outlined by this chap Harrison Owen, a guy he
evidently admired as he <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> glowingly described his common sense and
“tell it like it is” style <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> which is also dad's style. Of course dad was
referring to the Open <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Space event that have: a real issue of concern,
high levels of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> complexity, diversity, voluntary self-selection
and a decision time <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> of yesterday. He asked me about my “topic
themes” , the groups and <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> who they were, and about the book of proceedings
and reports. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Admittedly, many of my early ventures in Open
Space were timid and <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> did not fully conform but at least I was
plunging in. My mom, who <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> was eavesdropping on our telephone conversation
that day, tried to <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> mediate what became heated and passionate
discussions between us. In <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> the end, probably the best compliment a daughter
can get from her dad <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> is to hear him<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> say: Sue you’re going to be really good at
this; you’re made to do <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> this kind of work. And then the conversation
opened up in a whole <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> new direction with us animatedly talking about
all the situations and <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> possibilities of where Open Space can make a
huge difference in the <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> world, the stuff he cares about and the stuff I
care about. The list <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> was endless.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Now as I come out of our second annual Open
Space with my NuFocus <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> family having spent 2.5 intense days together
looking at our <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> international future and possibilities I see
the same powerful <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> breakthroughs between the guys and the girls
that make up our <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> company. The layers peel off, gently at first
when we started a few <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> years ago and then so very fast as we revel in
being together, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> exploring our future and just being ourselves.
Open Space is a <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> precious gift. I see it as the invitation to
take that first big <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> bold step of courage as it was for us: to
bravely be who we are, to <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> notice ourselves and others and then just get on
with our beautiful life.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Magic in so many ways!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> So Gerardo, thank you translating the OS guide
and for your personal <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> note to my dad and Harrison well, Happy Father’s
Day. Who knows <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> maybe you and dad will one day enjoy a martini
together, which is <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> something else you have in common besides being
“straight talkers”. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Happy Father's day to all the OS dads out there
as I wish you all the <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> same beautiful journey of love with your kids as
I have with my dad <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> (and my<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> mom) in this last chapter of their lives.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Yes, much has changed in my life since I met
Open Space and what I <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> realize now, more and more, is that this simple
STORY is the STORY of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> many, people in all kinds of situations, people
with passion who want <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> to make a difference. Simple stories because of
the predictable <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> patterns that unfold and that allow us to
release the unique <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> leadership that's inside of each of us. These
individual insights of <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> us as leaders are the true building blocks of
community and a <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> collective. It all starts with the
"simple" stories of who we are.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoPlainText>>> Much love to all on this Father's Day, Suzanne<o:p></o:p></p>
