That makes it even easier for some of you to join us!</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">Both of these events include individual-to-you registration pricing - so if you can afford the resources to travel and the time to spend a few fascinating days with us I know you can also afford to register for one or both of these co-learning events.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">___</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">Open Space Learning Workshop - 8-9-10 September 2015 - Kraków, Poland</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">An opportunity for people of all levels of experience to share and explore the latest best practices and lessons-learned from around the world.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">If you are new to Open Space this will give you an exploration of all the elements that can support the success of an Open Space event - from pre-work to documentation design to hearing stories of what to do when conflict emerges, how to handle power dynamics, and more.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">If you already use this process, join us to share not just =that= you do something in a certain way, but to reflect with us about =why= and to see if others do it slightly differently - and =why=. </div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">Plus I know that we have many stories from the field to share.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">I am the host and facilitator for this workshop, so contact me directly for more information about content, schedule and pricing, and to register for it - <a href="mailto:lisaheft@openingspace.net">lisaheft@openingspace.net</a> - See also <a href="http://nowwesee.de/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/OS-Learning-Workshop-2015-Poland-flyer.pdf">The Open Space Learning Workshop - Kraków, Poland</a></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">___</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">The World Open Space on Open Space (“WOSonOS”) - 10-11-12-13 September 2015 - Kraków, Poland</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">This is not a training, but rather a “user’s conference” for people who know and use Open Space - our annual international gathering. Last year in Serbia, next year…? I am already in touch with two countries who are preparing to invite - because I love to help them “behind the scenes”. And we shall see how the story deepens over the next several weeks. (If your country team is thinking about inviting for a future year, do contact me as I have some wisdom that past host teams would like to share with you).</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">Some people attend both of these events - first the workshop to reflect upon and discover all we know about how to prepare for, document, support and facilitate Open Space - and then continuing onward with us for a “deep dive” into several days in Open Space to talk about all things facilitation. Some take the workshop as a stand-alone event. Some come just to the conference. Separate registration and separate payment for each - but to help you maximize your resources each is pay-the-most-you-can and both are in the same location. And if you need help and ideas about transit, accommodation and directions the WOSonOS Host Team is ready to help you.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">For more information see <a href="http://nowwesee.de/wordpress/">WOSonOS 2015</a>. </div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">___</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">I look forward to sharing learning with you soon in Kraków.</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">And if you cannot join us in September, I look forward to our next conversation here, there and elsewhere, about this fascinating dialogue process,</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;">Lisa</div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><br></div><div style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><span style="orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; widows: 2;">Lisa Heft</span></div><div apple-content-edited="true" style="font-family: TrebuchetMS;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; widows: 2; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;"><div style="text-align: -webkit-auto; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;">Consultant, Facilitator, Educator<br> - President Emerita, Open Space Institute US<br> - Fellow Emerita, Columbia University Center for International Conflict Resolution<br>Opening Space</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></body></html>
