Brilliant article! Lots of juicy details for sure, but the best part, I think, is what the authors can’t say (describe), but only point to – the nature and quality of The Toyota Space, which they refer to as “culture.” The “magic sauce” is not to be found in all the steps and processes – but in what happens in between. Particularly insightful is their (authors) identification of paradox as a central phenomena in Toyota Space. Paradoxes open space. Honoring paradox keeps the space open – and growing. Masterful.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span

Perhaps it will be useful. The literature around participatory leadership in Lean Manufacturing and Toyota in particular is vast and extensive. There are many voices, and nothing is particularly short and profound at the same time.<br><br>There is one voice teaching in the lean and agile communities that I find willing to challenge my thinking - and this post is one of the clearest I've seen about problems with the term leadership and inherent dysfunctions - especially in knowledge work:<br><br><a href="http://flowchainsensei.wordpress.com/2012/07/30/leadership-or-fellowship/" target="_blank">http://flowchainsensei.wordpress.com/2012/07/30/leadership-or-fellowship/</a><br><br>This is also one of the most profound benefits I've found in Open Space. That it fosters fellowship dramatically by allowing people to self-organize based on affinity. Leaders implies followers. Following implies allowing the leader to do the thinking - which is a great waste of our sacred gray matter.<br><br> Cheers,<br> Harold<br><br><br>On 7/17/13 4:21 AM, Anna Caroline Türk wrote:<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><blockquote style='margin-top:5.0pt;margin-bottom:5.0pt'><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>Dear all, <o:p></o:p></span></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>this is great information and insights!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>Thank you for sharing.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>Yes, it is fun to co-create a session about leadership.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>Due to my background I call it genuine leadership - but I guess authentic leadership is the same.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>I like the clarification around wisdom of the whole.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>And I love how this list expresses and lives it.<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>I pass your wisdom on...<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>Maybe my friend (and guinea pig) will join this circle as a result of your sharing - who knows!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>much Love<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>AC*<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'>On Jul 17, 2013, at 10:27 AM, Hege Steinsland <<a href="mailto:steinslandhege@gmail.com" target="_blank">steinslandhege@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='color:black'><br><br><o:p></o:p></span></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;color:black'>Hello Anna Carolina!<o:p></o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;color:black'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='background:white'><span style='font-size:9.0pt;color:black'>I can recommend the work of Joseph A.

Doubtless you will find some<br>great stories and thinking in the writings of Marv Weisbord and Eric Trist.<br>Eric was before my time, and Marv is an old friend. But I think you may have<br>(your "guinea pig may have) two separate interests here: Participatory<br>Leadership and Wisdom of the Whole. Of course they could be the same thing,<br>but typically people like Trist and Weisbord understood Leadership to be<br>more or less equated with the Formal Leadership of an organization, and the<br>effort was to help them (The Leaders) share their task. But there was never<br>any question as to Who the Leader(s) was.<br><br>"Wisdom of the Whole," seems to me, come from a very different place.<br>Leadership in that situation is understood to be a function or a role that<br>may in fact be performed by anybody and (over time) everybody. And<br>Leadership is never to be limited to, or equated with the Formal Leaders.<br>Many people would see this as a confusing, perhaps revolutionary thought.<br>After all things could get out of hand, confused, to say nothing of chaotic.<br>Might we say, Out of Control!<br><br>This, of course, is precisely the problem (opportunity) lots of folks have<br>with Open Space, especially when they just hear about it. After all, nobody<br>is in charge. Everybody is -- And that, I think is real Participatory<br>Leadership. Leadership is not something to be shared, if only because it is<br>the possession and birthright of everybody. No need for a share of something<br>you already possess!<br><br>To me, this takes us to the heart of the lesson from Open Space. Sure it is<br>a nice meeting methodology, a "tool" for group work, a "process, if you<br>will... but that is just the beginning, and a very small beginning. At the<br>end of the day it (OS) is an experience of, and training in real leadership<br>-- What I have called Authentic Leadership.<br><br>And of course, I just happen to have written a book that explains all this:<br>"Wave Rider: Leadership for High Performance in a Transforming World" :-)<br><br>Harrison<br><br>Potomac, MD 20854<br>USA<br><br>189 Beaucaire Ave. (summer)<br>Camden, Maine
