4. Conversational Leadership

5. The World Café Method The World Café Methodology Draws on 7 integrated design principles: 1. Setting -Create a “special” environment, most often modeled after a café 2. Welcome and Introduction -setting the context, sharing the Cafe Etiquette, and putting participants at ease. 3. Small Group Rounds-The process begins with the first of three or more twenty minute rounds of conversation for the small group seated around a table. 4. Questions- each round is prefaced with a question specially crafted for the specific context and desired purpose of the World Café. 5. Harvest- After the small groups (and/or in between rounds, as needed), individuals are invited to share insights or other results from their conversations with the rest of the large group. source: http://www.theworldcafe.com.
