InclusitiviTea and Coffee☕️

CommunitiesCollaboration

InclusitiviTea and Coffee is a Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion program built on small conversations. Random pairings across the company create empathy that no all-hands or training module can match.

How it works

  1. You pick the audience and cadence. Choose the people you want to bring into the DEI conversation, then set how often pairs go out and at what time.
  2. CoffeePals matches everyone randomly each cycle. Active participants are shuffled into groups of your chosen size (most teams pick pairs, but trios and quads work too).
  3. Pairs get an intro on your selected platform. Each match receives a personal message with an optional icebreaker question.
  4. They schedule the meeting themselves. With calendars connected, CoffeePals can auto-book a time both are free. Otherwise, partners pick a slot in the thread.
  5. Anyone left over gets prioritised next cycle. When the count doesn’t divide evenly, the person who sits out won’t be skipped twice in a row.

Who it’s for

  • DEI leads wanting an ongoing connection ritual, not just one-off events
  • Companies building inclusive cultures through everyday interaction
  • Employee resource groups looking to broaden their reach across the org

What you’ll configure

  • Frequency, day, and time for each cycle
  • Group size — pairs, trios, or larger
  • Opt-in — let people confirm, or auto-include everyone
  • Icebreaker questions — curated prompts, or write your own
  • Calendar scheduling — Google or Microsoft, with auto-booking
