<DIV></DIV>
<P class=MsoNormal>At the very beginning, the recovered “Miss Fix it” that I was
with “No task too big” from the corporate world, becoming an Open Space
facilitator seemed like a climb to Mount Everest. This weekend supported by so
many friends (Christine Whitney Sanchez, Harold Shinsato, Lisa Heft, Larry
Peterson, Diane Gibeault, Harrison of course, Alan Stewart, Juan Luis Walker and
so many others), I felt I peaked at a Base Camp level with an absolutely
wonderful team: members of the Scrum Technology community and their many
allies.<SPAN> </SPAN>Indeed I have facilitated many Open Space events
<SPAN> </SPAN>but this one in Phoenix AZ was truly unique and special.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>For this two day event, there was community before we even
met. <SPAN> </SPAN>(The true spirit of pre-work as Ms Heft would call it).
<SPAN></SPAN>Weeks before, topics were flying on the internet around this theme
of “Scrum beyond Software” on blogs, on twitter, on facebook and everywhere.
Dreams were starting to crystallize, anticipation was building and the spirit of
welcome was in the air. </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>I’ll admit that I was somewhat trepidatious<SPAN> in</SPAN>
this chaotic, “who’s doing what” shared leadership, self-organizing world with
my new techie friends. I breathed in and breathed out, knowing that what they
have done to change the world in technology, in community, as free agents and
free spirits to make this global world a smaller place, through technology
change and large system change, well I knew they had something precious to share
with the rest of the world. <SPAN> </SPAN>And share they did.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>From California to Serbia, Canada to the Eastern US, from the
Mid-West to the Far-West, they came.<SPAN> </SPAN>The banner and welcome
signs became works of art, the chairs quickly arranged in circle, everything was
ready the night before. Comfortably settled in this incredible place called
“Gangplank”, certainly worth reading about (<A
href="http://gangplankhq.com/">http://gangplankhq.com/</A> ) that could not have
been better chosen for all its principles and values which parallel so much of
who we are in Open Space, the conversations began.<SPAN> </SPAN>Quickly
participants bounded to the center, many still infused with the Orlando event
last March that Harrison hosted.<SPAN> </SPAN>The topics just kept coming,
too many to really count because it really didn’t matter.<SPAN> </SPAN>It
was the passion behind the words that mattered most. <SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>What I realized in that instant is that when there is a
spirit of welcome, a diverse group, people who are there because they want to be
there, a sense of urgency because the world needs this and a complex topic that
sparks and ignites, well indeed magic or real life happens.<SPAN>
</SPAN>People quickly shed their facades, threw caution to the wind, and they
got to work.<SPAN> </SPAN>In my opening remarks, I talked about nervous
energy (for those who had never sat in a circle like this in Open Space) and
pent-up energy (for those who just wanted to get on with it so pressing were the
topics they wanted to discuss) suggesting that these were the perfect
ingredients for innovation and creativity.<SPAN> </SPAN>I invited all to
pause, to look around that giant circle as if seated in the Arizona desert
<SPAN> </SPAN>to see who was there and to leave room from within for the 4
principles and the Law of 2 feet to do their thing.<SPAN> </SPAN>Leave
some space to be surprised, I said, and let go of pre-determined expectations.
<SPAN> </SPAN>These principles and this law, would be some of the precious
take-aways to be used in our life beyond this event. <SPAN> </SPAN></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>No sooner were those words spoken than my job was
done.<SPAN> </SPAN>I truly became invisible (with a slight tad of sadness
I’ll admit) knowing that passion and responsibility had found their place and
there was truly nothing left to do.<SPAN> </SPAN>Yes in some cases, there
were concerns: were people documenting their reports, were we capturing the
names of all the participants…and I chose to simply smile knowing that I could
not interrupt the intense conversations (butterflies, bumble bees and
participants) as it would perhaps crash the one magical moment where individuals
were connecting and creating something greater than I could imagine.
<SPAN> </SPAN>I had no doubt that everything would be alright, that
responsibility would combine with passion and that action would naturally emerge
which it did and will. </P>
<P class=MsoNormal>So I stood back and quietly watched the intense expressions,
the energy bouncing off the walls (exhausting at times), the charged
discussions, the markers flying on the flip chart sheets, the smart phone video
cameras capturing the action in the moment, the live stream twitter comments
enticing folks outside the room to respond. It was exciting; it was
exhilarating!<SPAN> </SPAN>Anyone interested, have a peak (blogs and live
stream) <A
href="http://phoenix.scrumgathering.org/">http://phoenix.scrumgathering.org/</A></P>
<P class=MsoNormal>And then at some point, I shed my facilitator role too and
had a few wonderful and life changing conversations with a few butterflies.</P>
<P class=MsoNormal>As we closed the circle after two days asking people to say
not what they thought but rather to describe how they “felt” about what had
happened, I knew then just as I had experienced it at the Wave Rider event in
Toronto and also at WOSonOS <SPAN> </SPAN>in Taiwan that these moments
would never happen again. This is it and this is now!<SPAN>
</SPAN>Certainly what happened in those two days borrowing from the title of one
of Harrison’s books is that for those two days in Phoenix, we were “Expanding
our Now” and I, for one, will be forever grateful to have had a small part in
making this happen with others.<SPAN> </SPAN>My love affair with
Open Space continues.<SPAN> <BR></SPAN></P>Suzanne<BR>-- <BR>Suzanne
