It's the final week in our #SDSBoost month 🚀, helping to boost everyone's understanding of the 4 Self Directed Support options. Anyone who needs social care or community support can choose from 4 options to arrange it. The last option lets people mix and match For example - use option 1 to choose and arrange the support which helps you get out and about, but then use option 2 to tell the council to pay and arrange your care at home help. If you'd like to learn more about how you can use different options to arrange your social care support, you can chat to the team at SDS Forth Valley - they're an independent support service offering free information and guidance. (Visit sdsforthvalley.org) To learn more about Self Directed Support, and the 4 options, visit our newly updated webpage: https://lnkd.in/ecyc3q7f

Building a community from scratch isn't easy, especially when starting your career journey solo. But here's what I've learned: every comment, every interaction, it's a brick in the foundation of something much bigger than myself. If you're feeling isolated in your professional journey, let's connect. You're not alone. #Community #SupportSystem #WeAreInThisTogether

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Don't be 'spooked' into working with a partner who doesn't meet your long-term #RTLS goals.

Choosing to implement a scalable #RTLS in your facility or senior living community can be a 'boo-tiful' thing. Learn how our solutions can support you. https://bit.ly/3Mc08dI

The 80/20 of building a successful online community: When you build a community, it's easy to get overwhelmed with all the things you could do or trying to offer all the thing you think people want. Instead, I just ask members to rank what they want. Turns out, members of the YFC Community want community challenges and fireside chats more than anything else (by a large margin). Now I know what actually matters and can focus on facilitating the best community challenges and fireside chats possible. We'll have the other stuff later as demand grows, but no point offering stuff your members don't want enough. Better to "do less, but better." That's the 80/20 of building a successful online community I've found so far.

Community and Support teams should work like Siblings! In most of the organisation I have noticed there won't be a sync between Community team and Support team. One of the main goal of Community is reduce support ticket and do case deflection. That doesn't mean we are competing to take off support jobs. We are just lending a helping hand to reduce your tickets burden. Don't see Community as a threat see it as place to, 1) Redirect questions which have knowledge articles already. 2) Encourage and people educate customers who raise the tickets to check in Community search before the ticket. 3) Support Community team when they reach out for technical expertise to answer unanswered questions 4) Create a strategy between both teams to get a win on win results for the organisation. 5) Volunteer and Contribute Tips & Tricks, Best practices to your Community team. How's the sync between your Community and Support teams? What Challenges you face? Share it on comments #Communitymanagers #Support #bettertogether

The world needs MORE COMMUNITY. And I don't mean this fake, popularity-contest, #like4like, LinkedIn "community". I mean genuine, "Why are you at my house at 6am?" community. My students start out the year being so...lame. They don't want to talk to people they don't know. They're mad that I didn't group them with their friends. So they shrink and hide behind their phones and their Chromebooks. But they learn very quickly that they can't succeed in the kitchen without communication and teamwork. So, they slowly connect. Slowly shift away from their phones. Slowly shift towards getting to know each other. By second quarter, they'd rather stand around talking during downtime instead of rushing to their seats to be on their phones. This is what community does. It pulls us out from hiding behind screens. It fills our tanks and uplifts our spirits. It gives us encouragement, a helping hand, something to look forward to. Online communities have their place, but they do not replace our innate desire to be *with* each other. Maybe if we spent less time building online empires, and more time building communities that surround us, we'd be more satisfied in life.
