3 Key Things!

GlenM November 18th, 2019

Please post here 3 key things you have done to help move 7 Cups forward. I will be doing this on a daily basis. Feel free to do it daily, weekly, or monthly. Right now we've got thousands of people doing a lot of work on the site, but we don't have a clear way of being able to support one another. The goal of this thread is to help all of us see all the good work that is going on. Please ask any questions or share thoughts!

  • Discussed member PMs with a member in the forum, which perhaps has a nonzero chance of eventually helping to move opinion forward on that issue
  • Added a book to my Listeners' Reading List that I feel goes some way towards explaining 7 Cups' approach to community and how it might usefully evolve
  • Contributed to a private discussion about the future of 7 Cups or it's successor, moving towards establishing a new strategic vision

- answer questions in the forums & group chats about 7 Cups and give links or contact information when appropriate

- give feedback about things that are not working, some recent examples

- negative ratings of listeners do not seem to be affecting their profiles, I send GRs when wanting support but also feeling well enough to have rather negative chats as many GRs are not supportive.

- emailing about about a particular glitch when it comes to GRs, but I'm not hearing much in return.

@GlenM

Hi, my 3+ key things to help the community are

- I posted a fun-to-listen-to podcast link on "How To Make Friends" in real life
(for the Loneliness Support Community page)
https://www.7cups.com/forum/LonelinessSupportCommunity_78/SupportResources_689/HowtoMakeFriendsPodcastsPleasesharethiswitheveryonewhoneedsitStartendingloneliness_211222/

- I provided 3 pages of recommendations for "7Cups Community Assessment" UX survey (both short term and long term), which included many best practice concepts and leading edge ideas and innovations.

- I provided recommendations for the Listener Coaching Survey

- I provided "Adam'sLab" with recommendations on "how to improve waiting time" for his survey on "Requesting Feedback: Response Wait Times"

- I recommended that 7Cups take better advantage of "free development and content creation resources" from the internet and university communities

@GlenM

I responded to my members that contacted me today.

I interacted with fellow listeners in a room and was positive, inspirational and we spoke of listening skills.

I have tried to educated myself about 7 cups through reading the forum posts.

Small steps can lead to great outcomes.

∘ Tried to reach out to others. Welcoming new members, responding to some vacant threads.

∘ Completed the survey in the most fleshed out way I could. Went the extra mile to think of every area that would be worth addression.

∘ Looking out for what others are frequently mentioning, to hopefully continue open, constructive talk of the improvement of this community.

@GlenM

Well, 3 things and listing daily

Tried to pick up two member chats but got ghosted.

Read more information in forums and replied to one.

Won't get discouraged, will try to pick up a chat again later.

Sometimes little things can add up to great things.
