🌍 "What can we do together to make a difference?" 🤝 Building a community isn't just about gathering people—it's about inspiring action and creating lasting change through collaboration. At our last meeting, we saw firsthand the power of collective support when one small idea sparked a wave of action. Together, we can accomplish more than we ever could alone. Let’s keep pushing for progress, because when we unite, anything is possible. #BuildingCommunity #CollectiveAction #SupportForChange #StrongerTogether #InspireChange

👨🏻🚀 T-3 Days to Launch 🚀 The Importance of Participation and Sustaining Community 🌍 In my journey of community building, I’ve experienced firsthand how challenging it can be to keep a community engaged. You can have the best events and the most vibrant spaces, but without the right incentives, participation often fizzles out. 😓 That’s why we’ve introduced the CIVIT Status system within our universal shared living platform—the Shared Living Hub. Our ecosystem not only connects people but also rewards them for staying active and contributing to the community. 🎯 ✨ CIVIT Status offers a tiered reward system where members can earn 30% to 70% discounts on CIVIT events, courses, products, and services—simply by being engaged. And here’s the best part: as a community leader, you can personalize these rewards, tailoring them to fit your community’s unique needs and goals. Imagine your community thriving, with everyone motivated to participate—not just within your property, but across our global platform. CIVIT Status transforms community involvement into something valuable, sustainable, and rewarding. 🌟 Join us on September 4th at 11AM EDT to discover how our ecosystem is designed to keep communities not just alive but thriving—connecting people locally and globally in meaningful ways. 🎟 Special Offer: All attendees will receive a 3-month Enthusiast Membership for free! 📅 Request an Invite to the CIVIT Launchpad and Register for the Event: https://lnkd.in/eRu7ktWg Once you’ve joined the launchpad, you can register for the event. Let’s build communities that last, within a platform that supports them on every level! 💪 #CommunityEngagement #UniversalPlatform #SharedLivingHub #CIVIT #Incentives

✨ Community Organizing and the Importance of Leading with Curiosity ✨ I've been reflecting on two powerful days spent with community members last weekend, working toward equitable outcomes for Cincy kids with the team at the team at the Cincinnati Children's Fisher Center. Our community organizing workshop experience reaffirmed some essential truths about leadership and community co-design: We all know the saying "You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink", but what if water isn't even what they need? It's a reminder that solutions can't be prescribed, and that leading our community into a pre-determined direction isn't actually getting to the heart of the challenges we face. A genuine, questions-first approach to our work together is key. Instead of rushing to answers, we need to take the time to ask the right questions, listen deeply, fully understand the challenges, and be open to new types of solutions. This was a powerful reminder of the importance of working WITH people, not just FOR them. Community empowerment happens when we create *real* spaces for shared decision-making. Too often, we're pressured to jump into solution-mode, when what’s really needed is more understanding and collaboration. Don't get me wrong, the challenges we face are incredibly urgent. But we MUST balance that sense of urgency with giving meaningful space to people's lived expertise. We have to continue to push for a shift—toward truly co-creating with the people most affected. With an authentically curious mindset, who knows where the ideas of our community can take us?! I'm grateful for the opportunity to reflect, listen, and grow alongside such a passionate group of people. Special thanks to Luis Paris-Velazquez and the entire Fisher Center team for their enthusiastic invitation and to Lacey Connelly and her team of incredible facilitators from across the country for leading us through the work. We have a lot of hard work ahead, but with collective action and intentionality, I know that change is within reach. #communityengagement #communityorganizing #codesign

💬 Emphasizing strategic communication, our discussion last week quickly zeroed in on the importance of aligning employee actions with corporate values and the essential role of leadership in modeling this commitment. We examined the broad implications for communicators in crafting narratives that support CSR activities as a core aspect of organizational identity and employee involvement. Undoubtedly, we’re at the forefront of these initiatives, facilitating internal understanding and external expression of the company’s social impact work. Key takeaway: Biopharma communicators’ role is critical in articulating and activating CSR strategy (regardless of company/client stage), ensuring that every level of the organization is informed and engaged.

“What’s the action behind my apology?” If you want to know if you’re practicing ACTIVE allyship, ask yourself this question. And sit with the (potential) discomfort of the answer. Historically marginalized communities receive apologies, but what they need is action. Will you take action today, friend? Allies, we need you. Allies, we appreciate you. Allies, we can’t do it without you. Signed, #YourNeighborhoodHopeDealer #allyshipinaction #inclusiveexcellence #WeRiseTogether #AllyshipKeynoteSpeaker So you want to be an ally? RSVP to attend our free monthly meetup (hosted virtually) https://lnkd.in/gFWX_zDk The next meeetup is taking place on June 19th (#Juneteenth) addressing the topic of Allyship and Strategic goal alignment. We focus on different aspect of allyship each month.
