It is the recognition that the watercooler of serendipity said Jack...
Serendipity - what does that mean? It's neither in my dictionary nor on
the same on my computer. Now I have seen it a couple of times - but what
is it?? Can someone help my curiosity?

Coincidentally, (seredipitously?) the most recent issue of the journal,
CJCD (Canadian Journal of Career Development) has an article on
serendipity in people's career paths with special focus on opera singer
Pavarotti. It includes a bibliography for research on serendipidy and
"planned happenstance" -- academics can't just say "luck" I guess.
The article also pulls from the research the qualities in a client which
best predispose them to taking advantage of serendipity. That may be the
most applicable to folks here -- as Open Space seems to rely on planned
happenstance.
