<div>Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Those who know me know that I am hugely passionate about
business and work. I was immediately drawn to Open Space
because I knew it offered a robust and simple process that
could spark huge "experiential" breakthroughs in thinking in
the way we manage and lead. Not to mention breakthroughs
leading to better results, more creativity and more joy at
work. <br>
<br>
I saw and felt the limits of our piecemeal cause/effect
approaches viewed from the prism (or prisons) of our silos,
sectors, and hierarchies. I longed for a more inclusive and
wholistic way and within the limits of my unconscious mind and
without the benefit of something as simple and elegant as Open
Space, I did my best to invite diversity and shared
leadership. I did not know much about self-organizing and
have much to learn still in the living of it and letting go
control. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>Recently I've re-entered the corporate business world by
hanging out with a lot of folks who are as passionate if not
more passionate than I about bringing joy to work,
re-inventing our structures and systems, etc. etc. I've also
jumped into the social media world. It feels a bit like coming
home and I'm so darn excited because I see the possibilities
of so many of us connecting together. <br>
<br>
Everywhere I turn I see opportunities for Open Space; I see
the context behind the issues and the possibilities to bring
people together. I also feel a greater readiness in
organizations "to try" and to "let go" based on different
conversations, some of the most popular business writings and
of course, the younger generation though what they desire
(meaning and purpose at work) is no different than how it's
always been. They're just more vocal about stating what they
want and what they stand for. <br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I share all of this with you because I will be in New York
at International House this weekend and I've invited some of
these new friends, many who are strangers to Open Space. I am
super excited because I am imagining they will respond as I
did to Open Space seeing the power and magic of what it
invites, quickly connecting the dots to what we are trying to
achieve to reinvent the workplace which many call are now
calling a "workplace revolution". <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>For all of those who share my passion for business and
work, I wanted to share this article which was passed on to me
by Tom Asacker who wrote a gem of a book (top inspirational
Business book by Inc. Magazine) called <a
moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.amazon.com/The-Business-Belief-Salespeople-Entrepreneurs/dp/1483922979/ref=sr_1_sc_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389666130&sr=8-1-spell&keywords=the+Business+of+Belife">The
Business of Belief</a> which offers great insights around
how people make decisions and take action. It certainly aligns
with the advice we're often given to not be "selling Open
Space" but to connect directly with where people are coming
from: their issues and their desires. <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>The article Tom sent is a Forbes interview with the
President of Whole Foods. I think many will find the article
quite fascinating. The title is: <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.forbes.com/sites/michaelellsberg/2014/01/12/john-mackey-marc-gafni/">"The
Unique Self of Business".</a> <br>
<br>
</div>
<div>And finally on my bookshelf too is Josh Allan Dykstra's
Book <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.amazon.com/Igniting-Invisible-Tribe-Designing-Organization/dp/0985832614/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1389666544&sr=8-1&keywords=Igniting+the+Invisible+tribe">"Igniting
the Invisible Tribe</a>, Designing an organization that
doesn't suck". He is scheduled to be on a Google Hangout TV
show with the HRockstars this coming Wednesday at 6 pm Eastern
time. You can sign up by clicking here and then revisiting the
website just before 6 for the live link. It will also be made
available on YouTube. <br>
