During the show, at the 5:35 mark, Patrick asks a question predicated on the Pragmatic Institute moving from charging an annual fee to charging a one-time fee. After release, Georgina clarified that the fee was no longer being charged at the time of recording. Membership in the community is simply bundled with courses.
Designing a community management curriculum for undergrads (01:18):\\xa0\\u201cThink about the experience of what it\\u2019s like to be an undergraduate right now. Think about being a senior in college. \\u2026 How do you help them compete against the oxymoron of this is your first job, it\\u2019s entry-level, but we also expect you to have X number of years of experience? How do you use that course to make your students ready for the workforce and appealing to a hiring manager?\\u201d \\u2013Georgina Donahue
The importance of community during the pandemic (06:50): \\u201cWe made the decision [to drop our membership fee, and bundle community with the cost of our courses because] not only were people more in need of a space to be with their cohort, their fellow alumni, more than ever, but this was not the time to charge people for it. [The pandemic] was the time to really have their back, create a lifetime relationship, and make sure that we were creating the largest access possible and establishing a culture of trust, support, and dynamic lifetime learning.\\u201d \\u2013Georgina Donahue
Where do community underdog narratives come from? (14:31):\\xa0\\u201cI do think narratives [about community being the underdog] sometimes come from people who want to profit from us as community pros. Some resources that sell services to us have a vested interest in being holders of the answers.\\u201d \\u2013@patrickokeefe
Don\\u2019t sell yourself short by telling everyone that you\\u2019re an \\u201cunderdog\\u201d (18:09):\\xa0\\u201cIf you\\u2019ve got the opportunity to be the expert voice on community in an organization [where] they don\\u2019t really know that much about it, and you\\u2019re the one that gets to pave that new path, why would you poison your own well by telling a single soul that community\\u2019s an underdog? Or that community is often misunderstood or undervalued? Tell your own self-fulfilling prophecy and really, really lean hard on the strategic value at a leadership level.\\u201d \\u2013Georgina Donahue
The person leading the community team doesn\\u2019t need to be the one responsible for community tech (26:24):\\xa0\\u201cFrankly, I don\\u2019t want the person that is leading my community team to be the same person that is like, \\u2018I just completely overhauled and structured our community platform.\\u2019 Those are two different spaces, and if we don\\u2019t find a way to support the hands-on individual contributor expertise, we\\u2019re really going to lose out because we\\u2019re going to disincentivize anyone from developing that deep knowledge.\\u201d \\u2013Georgina Donahue
What could a community business analyst do? (28:33):\\xa0\\u201cI see a community business analyst as somebody that would be able to look at a bird\\u2019s-eye view [of the community] and be able to prioritize and say, what is serving us today? What could we remove off the [team\\u2019s] plate? What is the biggest add?\\u201d \\u2013Georgina Donahue
