The world we want

May 27, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Conversation, Leadership, Open Space, Philanthropy 9 Comments

One of the most incredible application of Open Space Technology I have ever seen was the Giving Conference that was sponsored by Phil Cubeta and convened and facilitated by Michael Herman with an assist from me, It started something that has flowed out all over the place, and the story has been retold in many places, most recently on Phil’s blog The World We Want Phil challenged me, at his other blog Wealth Bondage to put together a small manifesto on the world I want. As it relates to philanthropy, open space and democracy, here are a few thoughts: Spurred …

Not the practices of Open Space

May 27, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Facilitation, Leadership, Open Space, Practice

Michael Herman started thinking through the practices of Open Space again and yesterday we had a good conversation about the not-practices of Open Space. He has blogged about them here and here, trying on different words and language and making a case (:-)) for various iterations. Briefly, these not-practices, or anti practices are: Analyzing as the opposite of appreciating (and opening) Protecting, defending and facilitating as the opposites of inviting Problem solving and fixing as the opposites of supporting (and holding) Accounting and making a good case as the opposite of making good (grounding) For me these are important because …

Big links post

May 26, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Conversation, Emergence, Leadership, Notes, Organization, Uncategorized

Here are a number of bits and pieces that have been waiting around for ages to get posted: Donella Meadows on being a global citizen and dancing with systems. From Bill Harris at Making Sense with Facilitated Systems. Getting Started with Action Learning, also from Bill. Dave Pollard on indigenous capacities for learning and discovery: The word indigenous* means ‘born into and part of’, and by inference ‘inseparably connected to’. We are all, I think, indigenous at birth, born into the Earth-organism and connected in a profound and primal way to all life on the planet, even if we are …

Light blogging, tired souls and non-attachment

May 21, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Being, Facilitation, Leadership, Learning, Practice 3 Comments

For those of you that read in newsfeeders you won’t have noticed that I changed the template of the blog again. I think it’s now a little easier to read, but let me know. At any rate, light blogging this month. I have been involved in some incredibly draining work of late, the most recent of which required me to be substantially bigger than I normally have been. I was holding space for a day long circle dialogue on Aboriginal child welfare in British Columbia. It was a full day with many important people from throughout the system who came …

Six observations about seeing

May 15, 2006 By Chris Corrigan Being, Conversation, Facilitation, Leadership, Practice 3 Comments

As Michael and I make some progress on our writing, I find that I have been assembling together bits and pieces of writing I have done over the years and putting some papers up at my site. Today I want to invite you to have a look at a new paper called “Six observations about seeing” which is composed from some blog posts I made 18 months ago or so. As always, comments are welcome.
