PREFACE
Building an online community is not an event which takes place during a given week or month. It is not a project which is developed and handed in; it is an on-going process.
This book is intended for professionals who are familiar with social networks and are faced with the challenge of building viable communities. It is written in straightforward language to help the community manager understand how to create a community by breaking down the solution into smaller daily tasks.
Presented as a journal, this book leads professionals through my personal Community Building process to plan, create and manage a community. I have used this same method to launch better learning communities myself and, although the approach focuses on social learning communities in the enterprise, the same rules apply to any community whose members learn from their interactions.
Combine the ideas put forth in this journal with your creativity and your experiences to produce spectacular results.
