As a sort of birthday present to myself, I renewed the podcast’s (see #listen) SimpleCast account for an entire year. It saves a little cost, but more importantly it feels like a nice commitment. There are 110 episodes so far, and there’s no reason there can’t be many many more in the coming year.
Help wanted
I'm looking for a "greeter" — more specifically, I’d like to have a merry band of people who greet new members here. @Lovelace and I had a great preliminary conversation on this. Follow that “greeter” link and chime in if you’re interested.
Also, that topic is in the category for discussing #ideas for moving this community forward. There are several things in there that would benefit from your contribution.
Reframing Value: Did an experience or new tool result in a shift in a member’s work or their organization’s approach? Are there new expectations for outcomes or performance as a result of community influence? Was there a strategy change or the introduction of new metrics as a result of participation?
I’d particularly like to know…
Are there new expectations for outcomes or performance as a result of this community’s influence?
YES! Whether we stop making our Podcast, keep going, or stumble forth with fits and starts; there are reasons. Reasons can be discovered, decisions can be made and a new cycle of action can be set into motion.
Within a community that offers education, understanding and encouragement yet withholds judgement, we have a safe place to work all this out.
The opportunities to serve are the ultimate bonus! Service can lift us out of a tangled personal knot, expand our perspective, provide invaluable experience and support our desire to further a dream - better equipped.
The surprise is that service, which takes even MORE time, can actually unlock reserves of time, we didn’t think we had.
That said, we attempt wisdom in choosing a point in time - to insert that key.
Sorry I can’t be more engaged with the community at present. But I care about you and am very happy to toast you with a cup of Pu’ehr tea this morning.
@craigconstantine I didn’t realize the Podcaster Community is only a year old. It feels far more established. I am looking forward to reading the CMX article.
Thank you for starting this growing sharing community!
