World Cafe

I’m just back from running a workshop in Thailand where we were seeking to review a global campaign and discuss next steps with 40 people present. How can you do meaningful planning with so many people?

We used the World Cafe method – I’ve used this approach in a number of locations around the world and it is a great way of involving a lot of people in small discussions that build towards a cohesive picture of all the discussions. If you haven’t come across it before it is well worth checking out, and is a great way to feed in a number of views into campaign planning.
