FREE Conversations That Matter Evening, Guildford

Conversations That Matter Evening at the Bar des Arts

“If You Were Born With A Question, What Would It Be?”

You are invited to have a conversation about things that matter to you. You will be introduced to someone you have never met before. You will choose topics to explore, that challenge you and your conversation partner, and that will reveal who you really are.

“To whom are you more close – your mum or your dad?”

There is a growing awareness that Socratic debate (I am right – you are wrong), long held as the primary mode of decision making in law, politics, media and business, is not the only form of discourse, and is an inappropriate tool to deal with the types of questions that societies struggle with today. Debate hardens our critical thinking and calcifies our ability to adapt.

“How do you choose your friends?”

We are coming to understand that through a process of contributing and learning we can create new possibilities. We can be open to new possibilities. We can be open to change.

“How would your worst critic describe you?”

You are invited to have a conversation about things that matter to you. You will be introduced to someone you have never met before. You will choose topics to explore, that challenge you and your conversation partner, and that will reveal who you really are.

“How important is money?”

Come to discuss ideas and conduct real, substantial conversations… that matter.

COST: Free. This is a not-for-profit event. Donations are welcome.
