What Is Gracious Space?

Gracious Space is both a spirit and an organizational tool that creates opportunities for deeper listening and understanding, welcomes diversity, and encourages the creative potential of disagreement or diverse views. Aspects of Gracious Space include:

A spirit of compassion and curiosity

A setting that is expressed externally

A commitment to invite the stranger

A commitment to learn in public

A container for working with conflict, and

A tool to promote the common good.

Gracious Space is a significant part of the work of the Center for Ethical Leadership. The Center is a non-profit ethical leadership development and training organization. It was founded to foster the development of a new generation of leaders who initiate positive change in communities, organizations and businesses.







Gracious Space, A Practical Guide
for Working Together Better

Gracious Space is a 92-page monograph, written by Director of Curriculum Pat Hughes, that explores the philosophy of Gracious Space and its applications to personal, organizational and community life.



Part One of the publication covers the various aspects of gracious space; Part Two explores how to create Gracious Space, and Part Three describes Gracious Space in Action. Each chapter offers journal pages, with questions that help the reader apply the material to his or her own life.



The Gracious Space publication begins with a foreword written by Sharon Daloz Parks, co-author of Common Fire: Leading Lives of Commitment in a Complex World. Gracious Space has been used and endorsed by diverse leaders from government, business, foundations and the faith community including Pablo Lambinicio, Project Manager of the Economic Development Program of King Co., Washington; and Valorie Johnson, Youth and Education Program Director of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation.
