This week we're joined by Anamaria Dorgo, an expert community builder and founder of L&D Shakers, a large and growing community for Learning & Development professionals.

We cover the power of communities within organisations, how studies have demonstrated the impact they can create for employees and employers but also more importantly why they are necessary in creating a sense of belonging.

Here's a rundown of our key talking points from the episode:

  • "These are my people". The power of communities in creating a sense of belonging for employees in an organisation. 
  • How shared lived experiences within a community creates trust and reciprocity. In turn creating greater connections between community members.
  • Leadership responsibilities towards communities. Playing the role of gardener and nurturer.
  • "Facilitatitive leadership" and why it's a skill leaders need to build as the world of work changes
  • How to create a community in your own workplace, why understanding the needs of potential members is critical to its success.
