How to Build Thriving Communities: Based on 20+ Years of Insights

Have you ever wondered why some communities experience continuous growth and sustained engagement while others seem to stagnate? Heather VanCura, a seasoned community manager with 20+ years of experience, has had a front-row seat to the evolution of community-driven growth. In her article featured on Community Led Growth, she highlights the commonalities among numerous thriving communities, from her involvement in the Java Community at Sun Microsystems to her tenure managing technical and non-technical communities at Oracle:Throughout my career, I've employed a diverse range of community strategies across various technical and non-technical groups, including Java and MySQL communities. This article distills some key insights I've gleaned regarding community interaction, the motivations behind participation, and core community values. These insights can serve as a valuable resource for enhancing your community management practices:The Foundation of Successful Communities: Community Values The first step in building a community is establishing a solid value system. Community management is fundamentally about human relationships and the connections people form with one another. Successful communities are built on values that are long-term, inclusive, and practical. For example, the Java Platform community has focused on principles like "quality and security, performance, sustainable code, compatibility, and community ownership" for over 20 years.Taking time to engage in sincere conversations about these values with both current and potential community members is crucial. Remember, one of the most important aspects of community building is listening. As VanCura often says, "Listen more than you talk, especially if you're managing a community."Establishing the Foundations of Your Community Once you’ve defined your values, it’s time to consider the foundational structure of your community. This includes:Membership typesGovernance modelsContributor agreementsCommunity platformsWhile these elements should remain relatively stable, they can evolve over time. Engaging in strategic discussions about these aspects before launching your community is essential. If you work within an organization, discuss these with your leadership chain and gather feedback from potential community members.Creating Member Personas To truly understand and best serve your community, it’s essential to create member personas. Who are the people you’re trying to reach? What motivates them? What benefits will they gain from joining your community?Communities often have multiple personas. For example, a technical community might include:Business-focused individualsTechnology-focused developersDeveloper customersContributing developersDesigners or data scientistsUnderstanding these different personas will help you tailor your engagement strategies and ensure you meet the diverse needs of your community members.Providing High-Quality Content When starting a new community, it’s crucial to begin with a strong foundation of high-quality content. You don’t want to present an empty community to your first members. Collaborate with other teams or external content creators, such as agencies or freelancers, to create engaging, value-driven content that aligns with your community’s goals and values.Collaborating with Internal Teams If you’re launching a community within an organization, it’s important to engage with other departments, such as marketing, sales, and engineering. Ensure that they are aware of the community and can direct potential members to you. Remember, a community cannot be built in isolation—internal communities require collaboration across the organization.Building Partnerships Even if you have the backing of a large organization, partnerships are crucial for community growth. Consider partnering with:User groupsBrand ambassadorsInfluencersRelated organizations or communitiesThese partnerships can help amplify your message, gather feedback, and scale your community more effectively.The key to building a successful community lies in constructing it around human relationships and shared values. Community management is, at its core, about the connections people form with one another. Clearly defining your community values, building a structure based on these values, and understanding your member personas are essential steps in laying a solid foundation for your community. Additionally, producing high-quality content, collaborating with internal teams, and establishing strategic partnerships will contribute to the sustainable growth of your community.

Strategies for Discovering and Referring the Best-fit Candidates for Rewarded Jobs

In DigitalWisers, you have the opportunity to tap into your network of talents and refer potential candidates for rewarded jobs to earn extra income. In the ever-evolving landscape of talent acquisition, discovering the perfect candidates to refer to a rewarded job is a quest that requires finesse and strategy. A seasoned expert in any field boasts an average of over 500 contacts. Among those in your network, you'll likely find individuals from your own industry, university alumni. Community leaders or organizations might have a much extensive pool of talents. While some might actively seek new opportunities, others could be content where they are. However, wouldn't you want to at least explore the possibility of connecting with them, especially for a role that aligns perfectly with their skills?Surprisingly, a staggering 73% of employees are not actively hunting for a job but are open to new opportunities. This presents a golden opportunity when it comes to referring passive candidates for a position displayed on an rewarded job board. Although convincing passive candidates to switch roles might be challenging, the chance to earn rewards makes it worth attempting. This guide is designed to help you unearth strategies for finding and referring passive candidates, enabling you to earn extra income.The proactive approach: your key to successAssuming the role of a Blok owner demands proactivity. It entails scouring various sources for potential candidates. By enticing candidates to join your Blok and create a profile, you set the stage for informing them about future job openings.Focus on your social mediaYour personal social media accounts serve as an ideal starting point to evaluate your network. Engaging with potential candidates through platforms like LinkedIn allows you to establish direct communication and share firsthand information about positions and companies. Inviting them to your Blok becomes the easiest way to stay in touch and keep them informed about future openings.You can also tap into your followers' networks. Asking your social media followers if they are acquainted with a suitable candidate for the job lays the groundwork for future recruitment of passive candidates. Reaching out to individuals you personally know or those connected to your network adds a layer of trust to your efforts.Initiate the conversation about future opportunitiesInstead of delving into intricate details about company culture or specific requirements, start by asking the candidate whether they are interested in exploring a new job opportunity. Your opening line could revolve around their potential interest in a career opportunity that perfectly matches their skills. Subsequently, you can paint a broader picture of the company culture they would become a part of.Craft your initial message with careWhen reaching out to a candidate for the first time through LinkedIn, a generic message won't cut it. Crafting a more personalized message significantly enhances your chances of catching their attention. Alongside highlighting why the candidate is an impeccable match for the position, you can emphasize the relevant experiences listed on their profile or resume.Maintain a polite and concise tone, respecting their time. Receiving a lengthy and generic message from a Blok owner in the midst of a pressing project is more likely to irk a candidate rather than engage them.Invite them to your Blok for future opportunitiesUndoubtedly, not every outreach will yield immediate results. Nevertheless, delivering a positive communication experience, even if you don't end up hiring the candidate, strengthens your potential for referring them for other job opportunities. Extend an invitation to the talent you connect with to join your Blok.By tapping into your network and effectively matching passive job seekers with rewarded jobs, you can effortlessly supplement your income. Waste no time, create your Blok, and begin referring candidates for the rewarded jobs on DigitalWisers.
