Howdy folks. I've got a potential client who would like to learn more about World Cafe before brining it into a Board Retreat that's happening later in the year. I'm hoping there's a Cafe in February that that she could attend, or observe if needed. Any ideas? Thanks!Mariah HowardSee More

Mariah ~ We just watched Departures as well. What a great film, and what an amazing discussion that would be! I love it that Netflix gives us access to so much I would never come across elsewhere. ~ Maureen
