Effective engagement is the foundation of any successful community initiative, so it's crucial to connect with people on many levels.
Everyone is different of course and so creating a cohesive or collaborative environment that respects individual wants, needs, motivations and values is no small feat. Perhaps a simpler way to look at it is to have a clear understanding of your mission and how it creates value for the people you aim to engage.
That said, people are not just passive recipients of a mission’s value; they’re also active seekers of personal meaning. The best environments do both: supporting people as they find value from your actions and personal meaning from their own.
This guide will help you build meaningful relationships with a diverse range of individuals, community groups or organisations - leveraging trust networks and support networks as key strategies for engagement.
