<div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">Peggy, since you’re the known entity with the listserv I’d appreciate the help. I was in the Millstone Institute
<a href="http://www.millstonestl.org/millstone-initiatives/fellows/" target="_blank">Fellows Program</a> this year. The program started last year so only two years old and still in the growing pains stage of development around what it is trying to accomplish. A key element
is to develop a group of diverse Jewish leaders from various communities of interest to the point where they can trust and be open enough to work together across boundaries that can seem mutually exclusive to working together.<u></u><u></u></span></p><div><span style="color:#1f497d"> </span><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">In order to do this the director of the program wants to create an environment where people can challenge each other in a safe way without eliciting feelings of judgment or attack that could result in people
shutting down or disengaging. A big part of that is building trust and getting to know people on a human level. From my experience with Open Space it seemed like a natural fit for this purpose, which the director acknowledged both this year’s and last year’s
cohort really struggled with and did not achieve to the degree she hopes for. I suggested the possibility of using Open Space as a good way to start that community building. That it could be a good way to get a new group of people to take ownership of the
opportunity they had signed up for with a calling question something like this (it definitely needs refinement): “How will we create for our cohort a place where we can explore and challenge our core beliefs around Jewish leadership and community that is safe
and non-judgmental so that at the end of our time together we will feel like one group with a common purpose.”<u></u><u></u></span></p><div><span style="color:#1f497d"> </span><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1f497d">The director was pretty interested in the concept and plans to discuss the possibility with a consultant she works with on content development. I said I’d try to do a little leg work myself to see if there was
someone local to STL that had experience in Open Space facilitation that could explain better than me.<u></u><u></u></span></p><div><span style="color:#1f497d"> </span><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><div>
