"Self-Organizing Systems - Self-Organizing? Emergent Community"
— The Spirited Work Learning Community: 1999 - 2005 —
(Living in Open Space)
by Anne E. Stadler © 2009

Hello everyone. I'd like to offer this reflection on the seven year experiment of Spirited Work I feel it has MUCH to tell us about the fundamentals and spirit of CAN.


And I'd love to engage us in dialogue about the learnings reported here.
Here is the link to the production site where the article is now public:

Jon recommended that we invite this Leadership Group to join CAN Communications. The folder above includes the first draft of a unified Communications Strategy. For example, we'll need to resolve five different CAN sites, including two Facebook profiles! (The web addresses are in the document.) Please post feedback in the Communications Group before August 31.

The next step will be a CAN Web Plan to enhance this site prior to Open Space on October 17. Feel free to join the Communications Group to ensure this site reflects the ideas of as many CAN members as possible. Member survey results will also inform the Web Plan. Thanks!

A deep bow to you all for opening this group to welcome our collective attention, appreciation, and intelligence! May our collective regard for you all as leaders inspire you to source the guidance most needed by our community to bring our collective compassion more fully into action and service in our community and the world.

I like your decision matrix--makes eminent sense to me. Give us a good framework to analyze and decide on various activities and our level of involvement with each--Thanks Jon!

The info in "About CAN Leadership" (above) might be a good starting point but it raises some important issues:

1. We'll need to agree on a CAN messaging framework. This task is in the Communications Strategy. Perhaps Pam Eakes will help?
2. In the meantime, what do we want people to remember when they are done reading the CAN Vision, Mission, and Overview? What do we want people to do?
3. The revised CAN definition might be fine but we'll need a process to agree on major changes before we publish them. Imho, it's important to be consistent.
4. If we want to experiment with messaging on this page we should add a disclaimer near the top of the page and and invite input from people.
5. Open Space should help define the CAN messaging.
