    Hi Matthew and Lilian,

    To assist here is a copy and base of the guidance we have devleoped for network challenge meet-ups, its not gospel but it is hopefully a useful guide as we want to then collate and synthesis meet-up experiences around the world for a write-up and photo montage at a later point.

    Best

    For all those who are organising or attending the Network Challenge Meet-Ups here is some background information about how we have been doing meet-ups in the UK.

    For the Network Challenge Meet-Ups we are hoping that photos are taken and shared via the site and that there will be a write-up shared via the site listing (i) who attending, and (ii) what happened generally, and (iii) what was discussed in terms of a SWOT about C4D in each location (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats).

    Learning from the UK meet-up experience

    We have been meeting once a month since 2007, and this is what we do and some of the tips we have for you:

     

    What we generally do:

    • Gathering (30mins): we give time for people to arrive, get food, settle in and say hi to friends and colleagues
    • Round table (30mins): we go 'around the table' literally and figuratively - one person at a time speaking; the host asks people to introduce themselves and say a little about their c4d work or interests, others ask clarifying questions
    •  General discussion (30mins): We try to keep general discussion for after we have 'gone around the table', that way everyone has had a chance to introduce themselves and speak. General discussion is often prompted by what has come up in the round-table - for instance about an area of c4d practice, or events or sector gossip (such as about donor funding or new developments).  Themes: sometimes we focus on a theme, for example if we are joined by a c4d colleague from another country who may be giving us a brief 5-10 minute talk about their work or c4d where they are
    • Wrap-Up (30mins): we get more tea/coffee and just mingle - some people start to need to get back to work and  leave, while others remain chatting in twos or threes, we 'let it be' and this is productive and pleasant networking time
