Recently, I spoke with my friend Andrew Barry on The Learning Culture podcast, and we talked about all things community. If you’ve listened to this show for a while, you know that community is really important to me and also an area where I have a lot of experience – having sold a community in the past and then also working with Pat Flynn and SPI last year.

This episode is super tactical and specific about building community and some of the pitfalls to avoid. If you’re interested in community-building, I think you’ll really like it.

You will learn about:

Uncovering the job to be done for your community.
Why making it peer-to-peer instead of one way is so critical.
Why making the implicit explicit is going to help you define the rules of engagement for your community.
How to increase the surface area of one-on-one connections at a human level with members.
What to do with rockstars and lurkers in your community.
How to create spaces for people and set milestones for members.
How to know when your community is coming to an end and what to do about it.
