Arrange an Activity
Arrange an activity for "your" people to participate and engage in.
There are 3 principles to start your group on a collaborative path:
- Make it purposeful - Tie the activity back to WHY your community teamed up in the first place.
- Make it participatory - Don’t just talk at people. You gathered them because they are passionate, just like you! Give them the chance to contribute to the purpose you share.
- Make it repeatable - One-offs (things you do just one time) are the enemy. Relationships need time to flourish, and it takes a few times for people to warm up and begin actively contributing. Design the first activity with the intent to repeat it with your people over and over.
