Today’s Manager Tip comes from Torin Ellis, creator of the Monday Mover Groupsite at "mondaymover.collectivex.com":http://www.mondaymover.collectivex.com.
Torin shares:
“"Monday Mover":http://www.mondaymover.collectivex.com is a unique group of professional strangers. While 80% of CollectiveX groups today are private, "Monday Mover":http://www.mondaymover.collectivex.com is a public, professional group. Anyone can join. We’re vibrant and productive, but also growing “not in the typical group†kind of way. We don’t have a pre-existing connection or association from which we spring.
Knowing that going in, I developed a solid process to keep members engaged after joining. From day one, I’ve found that consistent and demonstrative communication is extremely effective. I send an email blast to my entire group every Monday. Every message includes a few things each of them can do to become more engaged with the group and see a greater return on involvement. I then try to follow my own advice by being a regularly active member myself.â€
Here are some examples of Torrin’s messages to his group…
