Gauging interest on an event for leaders of online communities and collaboratories
Bill Johnston
Greetings GWG,
My colleague Dr. Lauren Vargas and I are planning an event for those who lead online communities (communities of practice, professional networks, ongoing collaborations). The event is intended to bring together a group of experienced community leaders to share current challenges, cross-pollinate solutions, gain perspective from adjacent sectors (public and private), and showcase inspirational work and outcomes.
We think Geneva might be a great location, and I wanted to reach out to this group and gauge interest.
We are targeting Monday, 29 July, for the session. I realize this date is the week of 1 August and that this may impact availability.
Questions I would appreciate your feedback on (if interested):
Might you or a colleague be interested in participating?
If this is of interest, do you have case studies to share or urgent topics to discuss?
Lastly - might you have a space available and be willing to host 25-30 people?
If you are interested, feel free to reply privately to me (if you prefer) at bi...@structure3c.com.
You are probably asking yourself “Who is this guy?”
I was introduced to this group by Craig Duncan in 2009 when I was traveling to Geneva for a project with the Global Fund. I continue to make frequent trips to Switzerland because I occasionally take on projects in CH and we have a family home in Ticino.
Thank you, and I look forward to hearing back from any interested parties.
