Well-run communities have transformed my own life. I know firsthand the value of being a member of a thriving community.
As a journalist-turned-podcaster, I’ve investigated what makes online communities flourish. Since starting my journey, I’ve contacted and interviewed over 100 experts, colleagues, and leaders who have built online communities for years, even decades.
I always ask them to share what has worked as they have built, launched, and grown their online communities. I’m fascinated to discover what brings members back again and again. In this chapter, I’ll share my key findings from interviews with experts who have built thriving communities.
