Asking people to move forward:

1. People who learn most always sit in the front of the room. If you would like to join us for a symposium in the front of the room, you are more than welcome to come forward.
2. The room appears to be larger than our needs. So, let』s all move to the front of the room to be closer to the speakers.
3. For those of you standing in the rear, there are still some seats available here in front. Please come forward and be seated.
4. It feels like we should have booked a larger room for today』s discussion. But as it stands now, let』s all move forward a bit and give the people in the back some room to join our discussion.

Inviting opinions:
