I got intrigued by you comment mainly.
Ok, but I have a challenge, I have got another consultant job and I don’t know if I can make it at the 28/11.

Hello!
I’m super excited to soon meet you all to have this workshop going. I’ve been preparing and been waiting to see how many would join and what background you all have. It seems from the signup, the group we are at the moment is just about perfect to make this workshop truly interactive! But feel free to pull in more of your personal contacts if you think you have some more that would be interested in participating.
Use this simplified signup form which will take them/you through the registration process: https://register.edgeryders.eu/
I have made preparations for the frame of the workshop - as you all have read. But, in the end - its we all, who brings to the substance. My part is of equal weight as yours - we need you.
With this post, I hope to spark this weeks conversation that will continue into the workshop.

WHAT HAPPENS BEFORE THE WORKSHOP?

@LinneaPC - the above is the draft content of the workshop. The ambition is to be able to continue the discussion and work afterwards also. Pulling you in to this work is important.
Je suis désolé, ne sera pas là.
I encourage you all to bring a computer if you can. This helps us all to document our work and start establish a communication between us all.
Also, bring snacks to share if you like!
Nu börjar workshoppen! Välkomna alla nu kör vi!
