Off to a flying start: introducing Gaia in Sint Maarten!
Hi Team!
How is your week going? I would like to introduce you to our new Catalyst participant @Gaia Piccaluga : welcome to the team, Gaia!
Gaia has a degree in wildlife management, conservation and control and is currently working as education officer for the Nature Foundation in Sint Maarten. Her position allows her to participate in scientific research and to facilitate education for the general public. She is interested in exploring the topic of how to start your own organisation as well as the topic of working towards behaviour change in the conservation space.
Gaia has had a flying start as she has already completed her first interview in her new catalyst role! It's waiting to be approved by the interviewee so keep an eye out for this brand-new content! Well done Gaia!

Exciting to hear about this podcast! Clear message from Charles also around the importance of having a common purpose to connect and creating value to the community.
@Lisa Matthews, CTS @Nicole Verardi thanks again for your time today! This is where you can download the editable copies of the worksheets that we looked at.
Hi @Lisa Matthews, CTS : you're most welcome and I would be curious to hear how you have meanwhile progressed with these templates or which questions came up for you whilst doing this work.
@Jack Bartrop what would your advice be on best ways to finding out what is blocking customers from getting value out of your product or service?
For a customer example of this Pathway, please find our brand-new Lunch ‘n Learn interview with@Victoria Hart who manages four communities for Mark Allen Group: http://community.zapnito.com/videos/lunch-and-learn-feb-23
@Jonathan Sumner and @John DeLeonardis : would the above example and this part of the course also be of value to your community at this point in time? Looking forward to connecting soon.
Great overview! @Jack Bartrop : what inspired you when creating this Community-Led Growth flywheel?
Good point @Jack Bartrop, that a switch from audience-based one-to-many communication to community-based many-to-many communication will not be successful if there isn't a clear reason for members to contribute. Completing the "needs" column per member group in exercise 2 (module 3) helped me define these reasons for our WildHub community.
@Sukhpreet Habermacher and @Marc Schindelholz : This value proposition template, as well as the other templates, may also be useful in working towards the launch of your DermaU community.
Collecting data pre-launch can appear time-consuming and yet can ensure a community's success. @Nikol Chen : any insights you could share with us on why it would be worth investing this time?
Managing a global community, I found that I could use any touch points with our WildHub members for gathering data. For example, in our monthly member socials we always dedicate some time to discussing work challenges, which gives me valuable data. I often ask participants to share these challenges with the wider community after the event (e.g. on our Q&A page) to gain even more advice & insights, which creates more exchange of value among members.
@Jack Bartrop : Community benchmarks can be hard to find. Would you be able to share the source of the "90-9-1 Rule" with us, please? Thanks!
