<div dir="ltr"><b>You will never forget your time in Florida.</b><span> </span>A vibrant Open Space community is growing in Tampa Bay and St. Petersburg Florida as
we speak.<span> </span>It never would have happened
to this extent without all of YOU and this Wonderful Community.<span> </span>Millennial Leaders who get it… who are excited,
energized and purposeful about the future they are creating and who are
attracting Community, Business and University leaders -- ordinary and extraordinary people. Judging from the hugely
successful “Sustainability without Borders” Open Space event that took place
last Saturday with close to 60 people, we see a growing movement – a movement
that speaks to our theme “The World is Waiting…are We Ready? <span> </span>Yes, during these times of rapid
communications, of chaos and confusion, of immense possibility and opportunity,
the world is waiting for a technology like Open Space to invite a new way of
leading, doing and being.The world is waiting for generational, transdisciplinary leadership.<br>
<p>Check out our website from Saturday to see photos and
reports – it was all produced in real time, a briefing book in participants’
inbox less than 12 hours after the event.<span>
</span>It will give you a glimpse of what’s waiting for you!<span> </span>Many who were there on Saturday will be attending
in May. <a href="http://usfspsustainabilitywithoutborders.crowdvine.com/" target="_blank">Sustainability without Borders</a><br></p>
<p>One of the amazing Millennial leaders on our planning team is
David O’Neill. He will be the Official Host of the WOSonOS2013, opening the
circle on Friday morning May 17th. <span> </span>I
will facilitate and such a privilege it will be. David works with the Bishop
Center at the University of South Florida St. Petersburg, our partners for the
World Event. <span> </span>After a few short months
learning about Open Space, he is as committed and inspired as we all are seeing
the immense possibilities of opening space for new leadership, new work in a
new economy. </p>
<p>We just can’t wait for you to meet everyone else too (Aaron,
Kevin, Catie, Keosha, Vincent, Stephen, George, Brian, etc – all Millennials) and
the host team plus all those who will be attending locally -- established
leaders in different fields, ordinary and extraordinary people <span> </span>who experienced Open Space these past few
months and who see the potential in their work <span> </span>at the local, regional and global level. </p>
<p><b>So folks it’s not too
late to make your plans and register.</b> <span> </span>Continue to spread the word. Check out the <a href="http://wosonos2013.crowdvine.com/" target="_blank">WOSonOS 2013 website</a>
one more time, see if you can’t find some cheap last minute deals on flights
and come to Florida.<span> </span>For the price of
your registration, you will have the opportunity to engage around an inspiring
theme with people from China, Africa, Haiti, Mexico, Europe, Australia, Taiwan
and America. Of course, you’ll also get to hang out with Harrison plus hear him
speak his piece on “one less thing to do” on Thursday evening. <span> </span>Lest we forget, the price includes no less
than 7 meals. <br></p><p>Also don't forget Lisa Heft's training in the days preceding WOSonOS. Rich in content and practice. Details on the WOSonOS website.<br></p>
<p><b>Then finally, there
is still the dream to welcome you virtually. </b><span> </span>With everything else that we have done these
past months with our greatest focus on creating awareness around Open Space locally through various training and Open <br>Space events, we put our virtual stuff on the back burner a bit. It’s now being
re-ignited.<span> </span>We're imagining the possibility
of a bunch of little things, nothing to distract from what’s happening
on the ground but special things that will pull you in to the magic and feel of
this event spontaneously. <span></span></p><p><br>We’ve set out our Welcome Mat and we’re anxiously awaiting your
arrival.<span> <br></span></p><p><span>Suzanne<br></span></p>
