The Approach to World Caf\u00e9<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

World Caf\u00e9 can easily be organized as it just needs one person to put all preparations together: the Caf\u00e9 Facilitator.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Preparation.<\/strong> As in every event, preparation is the most critical. In World Caf\u00e9, everything hinges on Caf\u00e9 Facilitator<\/a>. Hence, it is important that enough time is spent in the selection of Caf\u00e9 Facilitator. A Caf\u00e9 Facilitator sees to it that the guidelines for dialogue and engagement are put into action. He\/she is responsible in so many ways. There is a need to work with the Planning Team to determine the purpose of the Caf\u00e9, the name of the Caf\u00e9, and framing the invitations. When everything is organized, the Caf\u00e9 Facilitator is the one in charge in posing the questions or themes for rounds of conversation and make sure that the question is visible to everyone on the overhead, flipchart<\/a>, or on cards at each table.  Playing a vital role in World Caf\u00e9 preparation and actual event, the Caf\u00e9 Facilitator can make the difference between an interesting conversation and a breakthrough thinking.<\/li>
  2.  The World Caf\u00e9 Event.<\/strong> This is your main event. The World Caf\u00e9 is focused on facilitating collaborative dialogue. Conducted in several rounds, it makes sure that sufficient ideas are generated and shared.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The application of World Caf\u00e9 is so vast in terms of use. It is very useful when there is a need to engage large groups in an authentic dialogue process. When we need to generate input, share knowledge, stimulate innovation thinking<\/a>, and explore action possibilities around real-life issues and questions, World Caf\u00e9 is the most suitable amongst various methods in the Consulting Workshop Series.
    World Caf\u00e9 can even deepen relationships and mutual ownership of outcomes in an existing group. It can create meaningful interaction between a speaker and the audience. In fact, it can effectively engage people in authentic conversation whether they are meeting for the first time or have established relationships with each other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Like any other approaches and methods, World Caf\u00e9 is also most suitable for specific conditions and less in selected conditions. When you are already driving toward an already determined solution or answer, World Caf\u00e9 may not be one for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
