Empowering community members might prove to be a tough task. However, setting up high expectations for yourself and those around you is a good place to start. To empower your community, possible ideas include setting up a community FAQ, which will keep all community members up to date. You can also set up a support system, where feedback and emotional support is available with a simple ticket. Finally, having customers providing feedback in real time can facilitate social support as well.
Key Takeaways:
- When trying to empower individuals, it is important to ask important questions.
- Supporting your community members by being transparent will help foster a valuable relationship.
- Rewarding your members will help you gain trust and transparency.
“People live up or down to the expectations set by those around them – and their imaginations and ambitions are limited or expanded based on what they can see in their communities.”
