Hi there,
For this month's newsletter, we wanted to focus on building the case for Deepening Community – a challenge that we’ve heard that many community-builders experience.
We've put together several tools and resources to make it easier for you to do this.
One way to build the case for Deepening Community is to communicate what community means, which is the topic of the first tool.
A second way is to share each other's stories and motivations. In this newsletter, you'll find inspirational videos from thought leaders in the community-building field that you can share with decision-makers in your area.
The final way to build the case is by helping those in your network develop their knowledge, which they can do by joining a community of practice or signing up for a webinar.
The deepest way to develop your learning is to invest in people, and for that, we recommend attending the ABCD 101 workshop. This event includes a follow-up coaching call with either myself or, for the French version of the workshop, with Myriam Bérubé.
We hope these resources help you build the case for why community is so essential.
Sincerely,
Heather and the Deepening Community Team
