This presentation targets an audience of advanced practitioners - learners who are already contributing to an open-source community in a leadership position and want to be able to lead and grow the community more effectively.
These learners may be asking questions like: - Why do people choose to lead open source projects and communities? - What's the difference between participating in and leading a project? - How can I ensure a community grows sustainably? - How can I spread the word about this project or community? - What type of a leadership structure does a community require?
This presentation is best for audiences who want to develop a "long-term vision" for their open source community but might not know how to begin. At the conclusion of this experience, participants will be able to: - Describe key differences between community participation and community leadership - Recognize challenges that new community leaders can face - Identify strategies for both increasing and sustaining community participation - Understand how to measure the success of community involvement and how to communicate that success to others
