Start Community
How do you start a community? First, consider what type of community you are for which target group, Peter Staal and Kirsten Wagenaar indicate in their book. In doing so, ask yourself whether the goal of the organization and the goal of the participants match. If that is not the case, then you do not even have to start. A new community starts small and that is a good thing. You have to manage the different phases that a community goes through well:
Establishing and guiding the right standards and values
Set realistic expectations
Especially in the beginning, give everyone individual attention
Achieving small successes
Create space to make mistakes and try things
No need to immediately set up a difficult technical platform

Al deze zaken zijn goed om vooraf te overdenken naast een goede benchmark. Een goede benchmark heb je nodig om erachter te komen welke toegevoegde waarde jij levert met jouw community.
