Thank you & NEXT!
BOLD seeks to expand discussions, techniques, and tactics applied to community building for associations and support communities and their CEOs, CMOs, and builders at scale.
How can we design meaningful and long lasting communities?
What are the design processes and interventions to take your community to the next level?
BOLD is a series of interactive workshops focused on building stronger, more loyal communities.
During the first BOLD workshop in September, we will dive deeper into the underlying ideas of the 5 core principles of community and look at the underlying questions such as:
What is a community and what isn’t?
What makes communities powerful?
How can we design such communities?
Who is this for?
The workshops are designed for practitioners who are building communities in their daily life.
BOLD provides a space for an interactive conversation to meet peers and learn from each other.
The workshops can also be valuable for people who are considering building communities and want to better understand the basics.
