Phelim and the UK WOSonOS team, <br><br>I cannot commit yet but rest assured I will try to be there in 2013. Having just returned from Chile, I find myself still in the warm glow of my time in South America. Some moments are etched in my soul including the amazing passing of the talking stick from Chile en route to the UK. As this was being mimed by Lisa Heft and Artur of Paris (native of Columbia), I felt the spirit of Chile embedded in the talking stick morphing with the creativity and welcome of the UK host team.<br>
<br>As happens often when in Open Space for two days or more, I reflect on the magic of this simple and powerful process and all that it invites. Serious issues we face in the world today which require some serious opening of space. Whether Occupy Wall Street and the growing movement around the world, be it in companies or in communities, whatever space we are in, whatever space we open and hold, may we be reminded of what Harrison tells us over and over again which he again shared with me while in Chile:<br>
<br><span style="font-family:Arial;font-size:10.0pt;">"Open Space is ridiculously simple. Sit in a circle, create a bulletin
board, open a market place, and go to work. No self respecting group
method (large or small) could possibly be that simple! And it gets
worse. It is not entirely clear how or why it works. In fact it seems to
work pretty much all by itself and the less the facilitator does, the
better it works.</span>"<br><br>What is perhaps less simple is doing my own internal work as a
facilitator so that I and others can have the fortitude to trust and let
be knowing that what emerges when participants discover the power of 5
principles and 1 law is something beyond what anyone can imagine... Important to remember even more so during these times of crises and opportunity. <br><br>So dear UK team as you prepare, don't work too hard, have fun as you do and we will meet you gladly across the pond, the sea, an ocean or a few continents!<br>
