Recording Now Available: Influencing Community Behavior with Richard Millington

If you missed the webinar, give it a watch and join the accompanying discussion right here on Creators.

Community guidelines don't change the behavior of your members for one simple reason: your members don't read them. This presents a challenge. If you want to shape the behavior of members in the community, how do you do it? How do you influence members to do positive things in your community? How can you prevent them from doing bad things? Too often, we begin writing rules with a pre-determined idea of what the behavior in the community should be. Instead, we should look to see what behavior members want in a community and where that behavior is conducive to a successful community. Join us August 15th to learn how to steer your community to the behavior you want.

Thursday, August 15 at 9am PDT

(find your local time here)

In this Webinar, we will discuss:

How to use a Welcome Guide to outline suggested community behavior
When to highlight unique rules in your community
How to find and identify an Insiders Group
When to draft a Community Constitution - with the help of your members
Ways to use creative and engaging solutions to shape behavior

Richard Millington is a community management consultant, expert, and author of the new book Buzzing Communities. His straightforward, results-oriented style is admired by many in the field. We've enlisted Richard to share community management best practices to help Ning Creators (and anyone else) refine their approach and cultivate thriving communities. Richard's next free talk is Thursday, August 15 at 9am PDT. We hope you'll join us!

A recording of this Q&A will be available on the Ning Community Management Talks channel, and you can follow the conversation on Twitter using the hashtag #NingTalk.

Wish I could join---will this be a recorded webinar for those of us that can't join the live session?

Buenas noches, quiero sugerir la posibilidad de que alguna vez brinden webinars en idioma castellano (español). Creo que somos una importante cantidad los clientes de habla hispana.

Muchas gracias.
