While both have the primary purpose change, the two have in some way completely different policy areas, one in the individual and the other in the collective. However, it has never ceased to amaze me the great similarities and complementarities that have, in their evolution and development and in their approaches.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Let's see. Both have a relatively serendipity origin. A fortunate chance deeply rooted in experience. Carl Rogers (3) found necessary and sufficient conditions for therapeutic change and Harrison Owen's the principles and the one law of self-organized process for high performance and peace.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Both have theoretical development that always precedes practice. To the two originators was revealed a process after following some concrete experiential steps in relation to giving service to others. Thus, both due more to a way of being and doing that a simple mean. First, the phenomenon of change really happening, and only then we can try to explain why the positive transformation that occurs again and again checked in both.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Both are based on the quality of the relationship with the other. Thus, the attitudes of genuineness, empathy and unconditional positive acceptance that shows a person-centered therapist, adds the minimum requirements, principles and one law on which it bases its actions a facilitator of open space.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>From both emerges a self-propelled development process, which creates positive changes that go from the inside out. From the PCP they talk about the self actualizing tendency and from the OST we talk about self organizing processes of complex adaptive systems.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Both bring out the best of human beings, one on a deep level of personal integration and the other on a deep level of group cohesion. Evolving from their own centers, the two tend to encounter with them, because from personal change is a positive influence over the group, and from the collective change is a positive influence over the individual. In this sense, both are transformative tools that can be viewed as two extremes of the same dimension that complement and feed each other. That's why we can also say that the two roads lead to Rome.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>Finally, and perhaps most importantly, in the heart of the two of them are rooted with force the values of freedom and responsibility. From the PCP, the freedom to listen to oneself and the responsibility to act accordingly. From the OST, the freedom to discuss all issues considered important and urgent, and the responsibility so that together we can carry forward a self-organization process and transformation.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>It's very nice to have the profound conviction, based on experience, of the tremendous power of both to achieve a better world.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'><b>Notes:<o:p></o:p></b></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>(1) <a href="http://www.pce-world.org/">http://www.pce-world.org/</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>(2) <a href="http://www.focusing.org/">http://www.focusing.org/</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='text-align:justify'>(3) <a href="http://www.nrogers.com/carlrogers.html">http://www.nrogers.com/carlrogers.html</a> <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>* * ========================================================== <a href="mailto:OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU">OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU</a> ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of <a href="mailto:oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu">oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu</a>: <a href="http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html">http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html</a> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: <a href="http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist">http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist</a><o:p></o:p></span></p><div class=MsoNormal align=center style='text-align:center'><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'><hr size=1 width="100%" noshade style='color:#A0A0A0' align=center></span></div><p class=avgcert>No virus found in this message.<br>Checked by AVG - <a href="http://www.avg.com">www.avg.com</a><br>Version: 10.0.1170 / Virus Database: 426/3327 - Release Date: 12/20/10<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"'>* * ========================================================== <a href="mailto:OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU">OSLIST@LISTSERV.BOISESTATE.EDU</a> ------------------------------ To subscribe, unsubscribe, change your options, view the archives of <a href="mailto:oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu">oslist@listserv.boisestate.edu</a>: <a href="http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html">http://listserv.boisestate.edu/archives/oslist.html</a> To learn about OpenSpaceEmailLists and OSLIST FAQs: <a href="http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist">http://www.openspaceworld.org/oslist</a><o:p></o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
