Tricky and not much to add to what others have said except to wonder why these two HAVEN'T been fired yet, and what is stopping that from happening?
If it was me, I'd probably opt to take a strong recommednation that we figure out together how to have the real conversation. Discerning what that truth is is a tricky proposition, but it sounds like there is another conversation to be had, otherwise the firings would have already happened. Hard to speculate, from afar, but those are a couple of thoughts. Good luck with your decision. Chris On 8/29/06, kerry napuk <k...@napuk.demon.co.uk> wrote:
Elwin Well, well, I wondered why they asked you, an old hand at group work in far flung places, to do one on your doorstep. Guess you have two choices: First, refuse to facilitate on principle that it perverts the spirit of Open Space with a hidden agenda; or second, do it. If you do it, is there any possibility you have made the wrong assumption about the sponsor? Is there a chance the sponsor might be undone during the process and be thwarted? Might other people defend the potential victims? Who knows what might happen. On the other hand, the process could be used to keep everyone in line in the future. Looks like a gamble either way. At least the event might bring everything into the open. Anyway, the sponsor would try and do what they wanted behind the scenes. Please let us know what you do about this dilemma and especially what happens Good luck! .
