Subject: Cohort 9 Series: Checklist of ways you can help keep the Cohort growing, build connections and keep increasing your skills.

Greetings

We have 2 Sessions left for the training. It's a good time to start planning for the next Cohorts 9B and 9C. 

Cohort 9.B Signup   Start: Wednesdays March 17   http://bit.ly/Cohort9B-SignUp

Cohort 9.C Signup   Start: Wednesdays, April 21  http://bit.ly/Cohort9C-SignUp

You can help grow the empathy movement. We ask Participants, Trainees and Trainers to help promote this Cohort 9 Series so that we can keep it full and growing from Cohort to Cohort.

Here is a checklist of ways you can help keep the Cohort growing, build connections and keep increasing your skills.

1. ( ) Take the Training Again, and Again and Again...

We want to give preference to participants already in the Cohort Series and their personal friends that they invite to take part in the next Cohort. If you would like to continue with the series, sign up as soon as possible. Once the spaces are taken, the Cohort is locked.

What role do you want to take in the next cohort? Your training in Module 1 is not completed until you can train others and produce trainings.

• 1. (  ) Participant - Step 1 is to start as a participant learning to be an Empathy Circle Facilitator.

  2. (  ) Trainee - Step 2, become a trainee to learn how to be a trainer.

  3. (  ) Floater (multiple roles) fills in if people don’t show up, etc.

  4. (  ) Trainer - Train participants and trainees.

  5. (  ) Producer Trainee - learn how to setup and and host training Cohorts.

  6. (  ) Producer - responsible for setting up and organizing training Cohorts.

  7. (  ) Designer - Create and expand on the training curriculum. Design new training Modules.

2.  ( ) Personally Invite Your Friends

1. Personally share with your friends how much you enjoyed and learned from taking the training. Invite them to take part.

2. Send them an email with the signup information.

3.  ( ) Promote to Facebook, LinkedIn, etc.

Each Cohort Series has both a Facebook and LinkedIn Event about it. See the examples here for the Cohort 9 Series. 

• ( ) Facebook: Cohort 9 Series

• ( ) LinkedIn: Cohort 9 Series

Steps on Facebook and LinkedIn

Here are ways to spread the word about the next Cohorts on these platforms.

1. ( ) Signup as Going to the Event. 

2. If you are on these social media platforms, you can click the going button on each event.

3. ( ) Invite Friends to Each Event

4. Go ahead and invite all your friends. It is a good way to make them aware of the importance of empathy and the training event.  See the How To Video

   1. ( ) Facebook lets you invite about 400 friends to an Event.

   2. ( ) LinkedIn lets you invite up to1,000 friends to an Event! 

5. ( ) Share the Event on your Person Page. 

6. Go to the event share button and share it to your personal page.  It will show up in your news feed and your friends will see it. 

7. ( )Share to Facebook and LinkedIn Groups

• 1. There are many groups on a wide range of topics on Facebook and LinkedIn. You can post to these.

5.  ( ) Write an Article

• You can write an article about your experience and post it. Here is a good example.
