A Simple Email-Script for Inviting

Still nervous?

 

Use this script as the basis of an email to send out to advertise your Conversation Café.

Hi,

I'm hosting a small group conversation at [time] on [day] [date] at [location].  I would like to extend an invitation to you [and/or your network] to attend.  I will be hosting the discussion using the Conversation Café format, which means we will use a simple method to allow everyone involved to meaningfully contribute. 

This time, we will discuss the following question/topic: "[topic or question]."  As a group, we will work with these agreements during the conversation:

  1. Open-mindedness : listen to and respect all points of view
  2. Acceptance : suspend judgment as best you can
  3. Curiosity : seek to understand rather than persuade
  4. Discovery : question old assumptions, look for new insights
  5. Sincerity : speak for yourself about what has personal heart and meaning
  6. Brevity : go for honesty and depth but don't go on and on

We are hoping to have about 6-9 people attend.  I hope you can!

[Include other information, such as directions, food information, contact information, etc.]

Thanks!
