conferize

What is your purpose? How do you excite people? Are you facilitating change?

Make people care

conferize

A community is partly self organizing, but you provide the platform & set the tone

Let go of (too much) control

conferize

Be a person. Talk like a person. If you screw up, admit it.

Be authentic

conferize

Don’t remove unwanted content, create dialogue instead

Don’t censor, moderate

conferize

Give credit to the people and the behavior you want to see more of.

Create ambassadors

conferize

Beauty brings out the best behavior in people. And vice versa!
