👋 Community Padawans!
I hope that you are safe and healthy (extend my wishes to all your family and friends).
While you are reading this message, let me know that, on this side, I am so excited to share with you big news regarding this project 👇
YES! 🎉CONNECT DOTS PODCAST
I am proud to announce that you can now follow ConnectDots also on a podcast, a community-driven podcast.
(🔊 If you prefer audio, we also thought about you. Here!)
What is the mission behind the podcast?
Everyday, we are so inspired by all those brands who have awesome communities and interesting content. But, behind those communities, we have people, community managers who raise the bar everyday to offer the best experience to all their members.
Connect Dots is a podcast about those connectors, their journey, learning and mistakes.
And, for the first episode, we start BIG! 🙌
Our first guest is Lais de Oliveira, the new Program Director of On Deck’s Community Builders Fellowship who recently launched her first book Hacking Communities. A must-read for all of you boys and girls passionate about community building.
You can watch the first episode here and, please, don’t forget to subscribe to our new Youtube Channel.
It was a really interesting conversation(!) where we talked about:
Her journey from Entrepreneur to Community Builder
First steps as a community builder
What defines as a community builder
Selling her first business - a marketplace for working spaces
When did your journey as community builder started?
Explaining the "Hacking Communities" concept
Mission/Purpose as Program Director @OnDeck
Future predictions on community building
Let’s us know below your feedback about our first episode.
With the purpose of giving you the best content related to community-driven startups, community managers and startup communities, for now, we will share a new episode every two weeks.
Who would you love to see on the podcast?
Share with us some of the names of community managers that inspire you and we will do our best to invite him/her for a next episode.
We are also preparing some special formats to allow more interaction within all community padawans. Stay Tuned!
That’s it for this week’s Connect Dots.
