Wow, I rarely say anything on the listserve but I must react to this. The
trust factor is really a big one for me in my work in Washington DC these days.
From every angle, top down and bottom up and sideways, there is little trust.

I do think that the trust, integrity, authenticity must come from being

opening space, particularly in a “difficult” situation, is the only absolutely
essential prework for the facilitator. All the rest can be helpful, but coming

I'd like to deepen my understanding of something you shared in this
post..Could you say more about "the mere search for control being the
total antithesis of trust."

Hello folks
As this day, Feb 2nd, draws to a close in Western Australia, I am aware that
it is four years since Fr Brian Bainbridge moved on into what he occasionally
referred to as 'the eternal open space'...

Chime in with my 2 cents here..
I think the most important trust factor in planning an OST convening (or any
convening) is the trust between the invitor and the invitee or the trust in the
sponsor who calls the gathering. Since they don't know me and I am not the one
who sends out the invitati
Wow, powerful discussions again!
A little story:
Here in Tampa Bay we have found a little group so clear and powerful that it
might help others on this subject. It really started with Sharon Joy. Not
only do her friends trust her, but a great segment of the community trusts her.
As will most
David Could you say more about "the mere search for control being the

walk into a group of people with the notion that you need to, or have to,
control what is going on that would be a pretty clear indication to me

The danger here Is too fall down the trapdoor that lies just outside the
Gates of Heaven.
That danger is to try to ensure the absence of control by trying to control
that absence.

Yes indeed if I happened to meet up with Open Space in my life it was
because of Sharon Joy Kleitsch and I have continued to journey with her
ever since. Her grace, wisdom, vision and love that extends to community
and globally which she gives so generously is intermingled with trust.

So what is it we "feel" when we feel trust? How do we know it? I
suggest that its a whole constellations of variables unique to each being.

For me, "trust" is a concept or idea or approach or what-have-you that
is not part of my speak. My feeling is that it smells of dependency,
evokes in me images of paternalism, hierarchy, moral categories, being
chained to concepts of others that have nothing to do with me... all

Good Evening to All!
I trust the Open Space. That process. That curiously un-obvious,
plain-as-day, default liminal-thing we all do in the here-and-now, one
way or the other, anyway. Call it self-org. Call it OST. Or any another
name if you like. Liminality. "The 1 and the 5." Any name is OK.
Wow I Like this conversation about trust!
I feel happy to read this because I feel connected with you. Trust is for
me a very meaningful issue to me.

Perhaps we should rename it to Trust (slow). So I did, but slowly.

This is so beautiful Derek. Thank you for writing it down in such reflection:
"...its critical to treat that circle as a magic circle; to enter it with all
awareness, calm, trust, and respect due a place of power."

As I read it I can relate to some beautiful hosting moments - and a few
'soul frying' moments also, where I was not moving in a slow and deliberate
way. Like everything I find in hosting and living Open Space - it is

Ho indeed Harrison! OpenSpace opens space for freedom of spirit and heart,
choice and the weaving of our fates and destinies with that of our
world, it does not achieve complience and so utterly fails as a management
tool, at least to the extent that people are to be managed...
