NOISE to would-be advocates

social media?

4. What if we were leaders in the nonprofit tech space/in our organizations to connect tech to
meatspace?

Building Program : Inside Job
GOOD: Evidence 5% Facebook connections will take an additional action needed for the campaign and this will move them up the engagement ladder.
BAD: Lots of people are there and we want more of them.
Why do it? People inside the organization need good reasons for it to work.
Hopes: we will engage the publicRationalizations: it is where the people areStrategy: we will learn something

We’d need to plug into engagement models…and have engagement opportunities.

Building Program : Engagement model
Identify how people fit into the model and work towards it in three or six month increments.
If captains in field – identify how many, who they might be, what they need to do.
Someone inside that is ultimately responsible for helping and resourcing leaders.
You need one – what is it for your organization and needs
