Community Jobs Round-up – 04/14/17

By

Every week we share a list of new community management and social media jobs – usually everything from community coordinators all the way up to director level positions (depends on what we can find each week).

This week as a special bonus posting we’re featuring an open role with TheCR team – a part-time Sales and Marketing Coordinator. Working with TheCR is great (I might be biased…) as we are flexible, fun and hard-working. If you happen to love community management that is certainly a bonus! Check out the open role here.

Know of a great community opening that we’ve missed? Let us know and we’ll add it to the list!

Best practices for getting a community management job

  1. How Do I Find a Community Manager Job? – Community management is a profession of relationships – use your network to discover your next role. Most community jobs are not currently found through traditional job listings.
  2. 50 Skills of Community Management – The Community Skills Framework represents the five skill families and top 50 skills that are required to build a successful community program.
  • How To Win That Community Manager Job – As organizations begin to increasingly recognize and reward the value of good community management the market for jobs has begun to heat up. While at any given moment there are literally dozens of interesting community jobs open around the country (and truly, the world) the competition for these roles is getting stiffer. How can you set yourself apart?

The Seven Deadly Sins of Online Community Management – Think about why people engage in communities – they’re looking for context, a sense of belonging. Newbies need time to get acclimated. If you launch your brand new community with an immediate focus on “acquiring” new members, that will put these newbies off, especially if there’s no value or content for them when they first arrive…

State of Community Management 2015 Monday Fact #6: Community Strategy Needs Resources – We’ve said many times in this space that having a community strategy is a critical part of getting your community to succeed. Strategy is critical, but it’s just the first step in the process of building a successful community. It needs to be coupled with a roadmap and the resources to execute on that roadmap for your community to succeed.

The State of Community Management 2015 – What’s Next? – It’s been a busy three weeks since we releasedThe State of Community Management 2015. We are pleased with the reaction we’ve gotten to the research – already thousands of people have shared and downloaded it. (If you aren’t one of them, you can fix that by downloading it here.)

Don’t Let Your Community Manager Go It Alone – As the resident expert, the association online community manager often serves as an internal consultant to teach other staff about online member engagement. In the future, though, we may all be community managers.

State of Community Management 2015 Monday Fact #2: Community Empowerment – In The State of Community Management reports, we refer frequently to “Best in Class” communities. From a statistical standpoint, we are referring to the communities that scored in the top 20% overall in the State of Community Management survey (which you can still take here to get your score). Looking at the data, we found the best communities had a number of common features that help make them more successful. We highlight some of those general elements in the report, and note them in our Monday facts.

Friday Roundup: Start With Why

By

By Shannon Abram, Relationship Manager at The Community Roundtable.qhy

Happy Friday! And Happy Start of a Long Weekend to many of our US readers. This week we spent some time as a team thinking about how we can inspire action in our communities. I highly recommend Simon Sinek’s TEDx talk “Start With Why” if you are thinking about how to authentically connect with your audience. For us it was a helpful callback to our roots – I’d love to hear what stuck out to you?

Things We Are Reading This Week

Energize your community: the generative power of co-creation – Ever have a conversation with someone who was focused solely on their needs and wants? Of course you have. It doesn’t make for great engagement. So why do we expect to engage members when we focus solely on our organizational needs?

The Organization in the Digital Age: 10 Findings for Digital Leaders – This post presents 10 key findings from The Organization in the Digital Age, my 9th annual report about the workplace.  It is based on input from nearly 300 organizations worldwide. First I’ll share the 10 headlines, then develop each one.

Is the window closing on enterprise customer communities? – While a number of leading companies have succeeded in gathering their customers around them online, the process of socially engaging the external world increasingly looks like a zero sum game for the rest.

Simon Sinek: Start With Why: How great leaders inspire action – Ok, so this is technically a video, but we watched it as a team this week, and think you should, too.

How data can inspire creativity – Too often, data is viewed skeptically by artists and designers. Putting aside the many culprits for this—the segregation of art education from science and math, to name one—this skepticism is marked by what seems like perfectly reasonable logic…

Friday Roundup: Facebook, Twitter and Social Media Evolution

By

By Shannon Abram, Relationship Manager at The Community Roundtable.

Sometimes it’s easy to forget that connecting via online communities and social media is a new
way of communication. LinkedIn was founded in 2003, Facebook in 2004 and Twitter in 2006. Of course there were early social predecessors (here’s to you, MySpace!) but the big three above, coupled with widespread use of smartphones and ubiquitous wifi, led to the explosion of social media. Of course, they are constantly evolving – just like your community. This week we took a look at how some social media platforms are changing and how that affects community builders. Rachel’s post, Facebook Pages and How Social Networks Lost Their Way, sparked a spirited discussion on Facebook and some reaction from Dennis Howlett, among others – we’d love to hear your thoughts, too, either here or in our Facebook group – which is replacing our Facebook page!

Inside the Network, our members had a related conversation with Jeremiah Owyang on a Roundtable call this week. Jeremiah led a discussion on the emerging collaborative economy and how leaders can adapt their models to leverage the power of communities. There was a lively conversation about how leading companies are using the crowd across their organizations – in innovation, product, marketing, fulfillment and customer care.

Things We Are Reading This Week

Facebook Pages and How Social Networks Lost Their Way – I have long thought that Facebook has been on a slippery path, because while it revolutionized the communications and engagement model from a linear transaction to a networked flow, Facebook’s founders built a traditional, transactional business model (advertising based) on top of it. Those two things are in fundamental conflict because they way value is created does not match the way revenue is generated.

The Operating Model That Is Eating The World – Tesla, the fastest-growing stock in the automotive industry, is run by a software engineer. Amazon has a market cap three times bigger than Target, even though it operates at a loss. Instagram, a company with only thirteen employees at the time, was acquired for a billion dollars just three months after Kodak filed for bankruptcy. These are technology companies doing extraordinary things. But there is a larger pattern here.

Does your online community feel like Twitter pre-2009? (It should.) – Earlier this month, we got an automated tweet reminding us that The Community Roundtable joined Twitter six years ago. It was a good reminder of how much has changed in social media in that time.

8 reasons for working out loud and narrating your work – Here are eight reasons for working out loud rather than privately, through email messages, or in closed meetings.

Friday Roundup: The Community Manager Salary Survey 2014 is Here

By

By Shannon Abram, Relationship Manager at The Community Roundtable.

Community Manager Salary SurveyWe are so excited to finally be able to share the full results from the Community Manager Salary Survey 2014. It’s a great time to be a community manager as companies big and small are starting to recognize that is a critical skill to help transform their organizations for a digitally connected world. Check out the full report and please let us know what you think!

Community News and Articles from Around the Web: 

Could IBM Watson Be an Online Community Manager? – Your typical community manager: two eyes, two ears, two hands. Between 5 and 6 feet high, 150 to 225 pounds. IBM Watson: 10 racks of IBM Power 750 servers, 2,880 processor cores, 15 terabytes of RAM, 4 terabytes of disk space and 200 million pages of stored content.

Social Media Manager or Community Manager? – I’ve led social media and community management for companies, hired, and worked with many social media managers and community managers. Let’s be honest – the two roles are often confused. The number of blog posts explaining the difference should be a tip-off. In Australia, for example, most Community Manager jobs advertised are actually Social Media Manager jobs.

New Research: The Emerging Career Path for Community Professionals – It’s a great time to be a community manager. Companies big and small are starting to recognize that is a critical skill to help transform their organizations for a digitally connected world. (Results from the Community Manager Salary Survey 2014)

So You Want to Be an Online Community Manager? – Because I write a lot about online communities and online community management, I’ve had people ask me, “I’d like to make a career change into community management. Where do I start?” The first thing I tell them is that I’m not a community manager.

Why Community Manager Should Be Your Association’s Next Hire – It’s been a while since I’ve blogged about my favorite topic, association community management, right? I’m not currently working in the association world, but I still strongly believe in the importance of associations and can’t help but think “how does this apply to associations” when I read pretty much anything.
