About the Course
We’ve built Psychology of Community as a course to help you do more for your members. You don’t need to revamp your platform, hire new staff, or waste money on big events.
This course isn’t about changing what you do. This course is about improving how you do it.
This course is about using psychology as the foundation upon which you build all community activity. We’re going to help you improve how you communicate with members and build lasting engagement systems to get the behavior you need.
If you’re tired of people telling you they’re ‘too busy’ to participate in the community or searching for the right combination of words to get members to share your vision, this course will help.
