Café Conversations

World café is one of my favourite tools in my facilitator toolkit. I never fail to be moved be the power and effectiveness of this elegant method and its inclusiveness.
I recently worked with a client to support them in leading their own world café and watched from the sidelines instead of hosting myself. I did the same a few weeks later with a friend working with a community group who was keen to have everyone in the group to feel equitable and empowered in the conversations.
And then just this weekend someone approached me to thank me for introducing them to the world café process. They had been a participant in a session I hosted in January and had just finished running one themselves with great results. If you’re not familiar with the process go look at www.theworldcafe.com it is an excellent resource and community.
