        10 tips for leading communities



Stan Garfield
July 2011
1. Carefully choose the community topic

•    Make ‘em SMILE
     1. Subject: A specialty to learn and/or collaborate about
          ubject:
     2.     Members: People interested in the subject
             embers:
     3.     Interaction: Meetings, calls, and discussions
             nteraction:
     4.     Leaders: People passionate about the subject who are dedicated to
             eaders:
            creating, building, and sustaining a community
     5.     Enthusiasm: Motivation to engage and spend time collaborating and/or
              nthusiasm:
            learning about the subject
• Avoid redundancy
  o Narrowing either by geography or function should be discouraged
    o Local chapters can be created as subsets of larger communities
    o Suggest that overlapping communities with similar topics be combined,
      either directly or with one as a subset of the other
• Avoid having too narrow a scope
  o Start with the broadest feasible topics, and narrow down as needed
    o Spin off narrower sub-topics only when a high volume of discussion or
                            topics
      communication makes it necessary
    o Challenge those with a niche topic to prove that it warrants its own
      community
2     Communities of Practice
2. Publicize
1.  Look for all existing distribution lists of people
    interested in your community’s topic – use these lists
    to invite people to join your community
2. Look for related communities, calls, and sites you can
    use to promote your community – ask permission to
    do so, and then post, present, or send a brief
    invitation
3. Ask well-connected people to forward your
    announcement memo to their distribution lists, social
    networks, and communities
4. Write and submit articles to existing newsletters that
    reach your target audience
5. Use social networking tools such as microblogging to
    inform possible members about your community
6. Ask the leaders of relevant organizations to send a
    one-time message to all of their people
7. Ensure that your community is included in the master
    community directory
8. Request that links to your community site be added
    on all relevant web sites
9. Offer an incentive to join, e.g., a member will be
    chosen at random or the 100th member will receive
    an iPad or equivalent gift
10. Search personal profiles for people with relevant
    interests and/or expertise, and invite them to join
3    Communities of Practice
3. Increase membership
•   Communities need a critical mass of members
    o You usually need at least 50 members
    o 100 is a better target
    o Only about 10% of the members will be active
•   Invite people to join who are part of existing networks
    o Existing teams that practice in the community's specialty
    o Existing distribution lists of people interested in the topic
    o Use Social Network Analysis to identify people who may
        not be part of a formal community
•   Regularly suggest to those with questions or interest in your
    topic that they
    o Join your community
    o Use its tools
•   Attract members by word of mouth
    o Create communities for which potential members want to
        be included in discussions, meetings, and other
        interactions
    o Make it so they don't want to miss out on what is going on
4   Communities of Practice
4. Post and reply
•   Lay the foundation
    o Enable posting and replying by email
    o       Seed the discussion board with example posts
    o       Recruit other key community members to also post and reply
•   Set clear expectations for the community threaded discussion
    board
    o Members should subscribe by RSS or email
    o       If a member posts a question, make sure that it gets a
            response within 48 hours
    o       If your community has a regular call, leverage the discussion
            board as a means of continuing the conversation, or
            providing resources covered on the call
•   Set a calendar reminder to post every week
    o Summary of a community event
    o       Useful link – save these in a list and share one each week
    o       Thought-provoking topic to stimulate discussion
                    provoking
•   Redirect relevant discussions taking place in
    o If questions are asked via email that the entire community
        can benefit from, ask that the requestor post in the
        discussion board and reply there
    o       Email exchanges
    o       Distribution lists
    o       Other collaboration channels such as microblogs
5       Communities of Practice

       themselves to lists and archives

Enthusiasm: Motivation to engage and spend time collaborating and/or nthusiasm: learning about the subject • Avoid redundancy o Narrowing either by geography or function should be discouraged o Local chapters can be created as subsets of larger communities o Suggest that overlapping communities with similar topics be combined, either directly or with one as a subset of the other • Avoid having too narrow a scope o Start with the broadest feasible topics, and narrow down as needed o Spin off narrower sub-topics only when a high volume of discussion or topics communication makes it necessary o Challenge those with a niche topic to prove that it warrants its own community 2 Communities of Practice

Post and reply • Lay the foundation o Enable posting and replying by email o Seed the discussion board with example posts o Recruit other key community members to also post and reply • Set clear expectations for the community threaded discussion board o Members should subscribe by RSS or email o If a member posts a question, make sure that it gets a response within 48 hours o If your community has a regular call, leverage the discussion board as a means of continuing the conversation, or providing resources covered on the call • Set a calendar reminder to post every week o Summary of a community event o Useful link – save these in a list and share one each week o Thought-provoking topic to stimulate discussion provoking • Redirect relevant discussions taking place in o If questions are asked via email that the entire community can benefit from, ask that the requestor post in the discussion board and reply there o Email exchanges o Distribution lists o Other collaboration channels such as microblogs 5 Communities of Practice
