S Update on Podcast. I apologize for not consistently publishing weekly. Don't like to use the excuse of being busy because I believe everyone's busy and we make time for what's important to us. I think the biggest reason is I've been struggling a bit with the vision for the podcast. I love doing interviews and I love the topic of faith at work, but haven't felt like the interview possibilities that have come my way were a good fit, and I personally have been spending my own learning time digging into topics related to my Messianic beliefs, end times prophecy as it relates to current events, and God's calendar, specifically learning about the Zadoc calendar. I feel like I owe to you, my listeners, however, to be consistent with the content you've come to expect, and I know recently I've veared off topic from the faith at work topics and delved into some of these topics I'm personally passionate about. I don't want to turn this podcast into whatever is on my mind and want to stay consistent to the theme.  I've thought about starting a 2nd podcast or maybe a Youtube channel to dig into some of these other topics I'm interested, but I'm don't have the time to do that right now. My intent is to get back on track to publishing regularly and try to begin doing interviews again. Been lavishly giving out CMAD cards. Received a form of that from one manager who complimented me while copying on the email my boss. Thought about the importance 1 Corinthians 13:7, talking about agape or God type of love “bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.” It's easy to find fault in others at work, and sometimes corrections are needed though if you're an individual contributor like me and don't have direct reports you probably don't need to be correcting anybody. When someone gives me an attaboy I find it very motivating and inspiring and helps me to enjoy my day and be more thankful. It just so happens that a video popped up in my Youtube feed by John Gottman called Making Marriage Work.  He listed 4 what he called the 4 horseman of the Apocalypse when it comes to marriage, i.e. 4 behaviors that were strong predictors of divorce.  #3 on his list, which he said was the greatest predictor of divorce, was Feeling and showing disrespect and contempt for your spouse.  He said this was different than just being critical and involved feeling superior to your spouse. The opposite of that, the behavior of people he called the Masters, who had successful marriages, had respect and were proud of the people they loved, creating a culture of appreciation, catching your partner doing something right, it was a reminder to me that while marriage may be our most important relationship on earth, because we spend of our time at work and because we can potentially interact with so many people at work, our work relationships are very important as well, and the lessons that we can learn from the Bible and good teachers about these relationships will often apply to both our family relationships and our work relationships. Jesus is all about relationships.  It's why He created us and why He died for us. If you want to be reminded about the heart of your Savior for You, read John 17 sometime.  What He called the 2 greatest commandments are to Love God and Love Others and the 10 commandments and all the laws in the Torah can be tied to those 2 commandments, which are both all about relationships.   E Decided against the essentials primarily because I didn't have peace about the idea of selecting a few verses as being more important than others. I feel like as Christians we already do enough of what done have called Bible nuggets where we focus on a single verse and miss out on the context. So I'm going back to using this “E” section for what is intended originally to give an example of faith at work, though with a twist. If I don't feel like I have a good positive example, but have a negative example, I'll share that. This week my family and I were on a mini-vacation and out to a restaurant. The owner was making his rounds and talking to each table out on the deck. There was a couple next to us.  I overheard the owner talking to a man from the couple, I noticed he kind of ignored the man's wife, and he was telling a fairly long story then said goodbye. I wasn't intentionally eavesdropping but since I was playing with my baby granddaughter I overheard the man say to his wife “he absolutely didn't want to hear anything I had to say, when I talked he said “well anyways” and went on talking. It occurred to me that from a business standpoint the owner would have been better off not talking to his customers because he made such a bad impression. It reminded how important it is for all of us in our work, whether we deal in customer service or just deal with fellow employees, to listen intently to others and focus on them and not on getting our point across.   L   But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a snare, into many senseless and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs. But as for you, O man of God, flee these things. Pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, gentleness. 1 Timothy 6:9-11 - NKJV   A https://www.patreon.com/christianmenatwork https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/christianmenatwork   H   Jokes   Why do watermelons get married? - Because they Cantaloupe

With last week's episode focused an #CMAD, we pick up where we left off on Episode 007. Chris has a question on when to start offline events for his community. What types of offline events are there and how does one start. We take the case of "user groups" and use Episode 007's BeagleBoard case study. We get into metrics and I think there are many ways to measure, but thanks to Chris for always helping me bring it down to simple terms. In the end, our discussion gives Chris a Eureka moment. Listen for it.

Our first recording for 2020, and we are excited to bring you our wit to the fun world of community and digital. Since we recorded on #CMAD day, we decided to devote the episode to its theme of self-care. We talk about our routines, but the discussion turns towards the stressors on community managers today. To sum up; "be empowered to say no". Happy 2020!

In this episode, Blake and KiKi ask guest Lauren Wolfe hard-hitting questions about how to keep online communities engaged, the "Super Bowl of Online Community Managers," #CMAD, and more.

This episode is being released on Community Manager Appreciation Day 2017. We’re talking about the past, present and future of CMAD, with its creator, digital veteran Jeremiah Owyang of Crowd Companies. Now in its eighth year, CMAD recognizes the “pretty damn tough job,” in Jeremiah’s words, that community managers (and professionals) have, which can be thankless and misunderstood. We also talk about: How to be successful with the council/association model The career opportunity for community professionals in the shared and collaborative economies Will there be a 30th CMAD? Big Quotes “Senior director/VPs of community roles do exist. And typically, that happens when the professional is able to measure real business results of the community, whether that be customer satisfaction improvement or reduction in cost from customer care to the contact center or actually showing that there’s revenue being derived. Once they’re able to show real business value, they get elevated higher into the organizations, but beware the demands on them, from a business perspective, only increase. They become more visible. I also think that we see very successful people get elevated higher into their career when they’re able to tie in the communities to the actual product itself.” -@jowyang “I hate to devalue the [community manager] role in any way, but in some cases it is thought of as like a customer service role or a lowly role, and that’s unfortunate. The goal [of Community Manager Appreciation Day is to show] these are professionals that are more important than you can probably even imagine.” -@jowyang “I think [Community Manager Appreciation Day] should go away faster than [30 years] because if the role is appreciated, we don’t need such a day.” -@jowyang “[To be successful with the council model,] be first. If you see a market emerging, jump on it quickly. I had 10 weeks to launch. I left Altimeter on good terms, and then I had 10 weeks before LeWeb, where I was going to announce it on stage in front of, I think, 4,000 people or something like that, in Paris. I told these prospects, ‘You guys got to get on board, I want you to sign, and you can pay me later, let’s just sign the contract and be in the founding member set of the association, Crowd Companies.’ I was able to get 24 companies to commit, and these are all Fortune 500, so it’s pretty rare you get that level of commitment. … Once you have that momentum, then other companies started to sign on board.” -@jowyang “The thing about the council model, and associations, is we’re not charging a lot of money in comparison to their annual budget. It’s a fraction of a fraction for them. But in totality, it’s enough to sustain our small company. By no means am I getting super wealthy. I don’t drive a Ferrari or anything of an exotic nature, but we’re very happy and it’s what I want to do, I want to serve these companies in the role that I do. It’s really a very challenging business model, but if you can get it going, it can scale.” -@jowyang About Jeremiah Owyang Jeremiah Owyang is the founder of Crowd Companies, an innovation council that helps brands overcome challenges and navigate the next wave of disruption and opportunity.
