Hi world. I have been contacted by Walt Disney company here in italy.
They are curious about open space and are thinking to use in one of the

Hi John,
Thank you for your engagement on the OSList - I'm greatly enjoying what
you are helping us look at.
When you spoke about "nothing mystical about" the will of the group, and
in fact, that groups don't have a "will" - this goes explicitly against
the core thinking I've experienced fro
I’m not quite sure what motivated the search for the “earliest” reference to
“holding space” or Open Space, but I can assure anybody who cares that in one
form or another it substantially predates the Quakers and, obviously, me. As
Jeff correctly observes, my usage was first in context that had
I don’t know about Disney, but a friend who is writing a book with the Dali
Lama’s brother recently told me, “You'll be happy to know that I introduced
researchers at the Tibet Policy Institute in Dharamsala to Open Space.” I don’t
know where this takes us... but...

Hi Harrison,
Curiosity motivates my original search, dating back to 2011 or so. Words
and phrases are important symbols and so I am curious about these
symbols, and their origin, and what these symbols might now mean.
And so I wonder if 'holding space', as /you/ use it, might mean 'holding

Side note inspired by Harrison's comment re: introducing OS to researchers
at the Tibet Policy Institute.
I have a dream vision of holding an Open Space with the Dalai Lama as a
host, on any one of the inspiring topics that he champions and embodies,

I used Open Space with the Dalai Lama Centre here in Vancouver a number of
years ago to run a meeting on connecting with community. Two Tibetans who were

Yes groups have an emergent wholeness, but that does not mean that they
take on characteristics we understand in individuals. We should be careful
