Laura work - community manager - [https://docs.google.com/a/opensourceecology.org/document/d/1PwetqfyzvzX1v7HBsP2k3TMh8sZvUTky9IvHp_TCo68/edit]

Discussion centered around creating two new working teams:

3-D Printer Workshop Working Team - purpose is to modify an existing design for a 3-D printer and work out all the details required so that an instructor can lead a 2-day workshop in which 24 participants collaborate to build 24 3-D printers. This initiative will allow OSE to get experience creating a distributive enterprise around 3-D printer manufacture. We expect there to be very big demand for 3-D printers, so that a workshop leader may be able to hold 2 - 4 workshops per month and earn a significant living.

Webinar Working team - purpose is to think through how to create a series of webinars on topics that will be of interest to the OSE community. Marcin has a contact in Poland who has been very successful in offering webinars (free to view for the first 8 weeks, request a donation after that). Our goals for this initiative will be to think through webinars that will be of interest to the community, to engage community leaders to produce the webinars, to develop protocols for webinar production that will be supportive of the OSE brand, and to experiment with different ways of offering the webinars. Ideally, we would like the webinars to support a full-time Community Manager - estimate we will need to generate $25-50K / year to be able to support the addition of a staff member.

We agreed to start soliciting interest (have people sign up via a Google form). Laura to develop a draft document on expectations for working team members.

Host Organization - give us space and pays for food and get 2 people to go for free. OSE: home of Extreme Production. Showing how it can be done faster and better than ever before. Even more interesting is v3.0 workshop - where you learn about Expertise in Lean manufacturing. Makers who want to extend their extreme lean skills.

3DP Workshop -

Logistics Plan, Marketing Plan, Other Plan

Approaches: No definition, no experience. We set up the structures to hire someone less capable. Or we can hire someone who has experience already. Or third - build in

[[Community Manager Role Description]]

Set up an assessment protocol for leaders. Putting people in appropriate roles - http://www.careerkey.org/choose-a-career/hollands-theory-of-career-choice.html#.VOZMD98ae91

http://www.taotesting.com/

Universal applicable skills - teaching them.

Laura:
#'''Careful definition of where we need help''' - --
#Matchmaking - social technology, Mother Hen
#Whole live spirit of community - social media, absorbing people in, making people proud of what they do

Most important problem to solve right now? Constraints: resources to get there? Not really, the protocol to get there.

Either spend resources, or crack the code.

Create a team and team leader. Appraisals and rewards are missing - if no measurement or appraisal, they leave.

Working document https://docs.google.com/a/opensourceecology.org/document/d/1L8uffu0UU-GfqeKe6_DvRq9ZaDp8ZNRq00m0B4RKbKw/edit

Constraint: real active community, from ad-hoc development. Marcin's role is thought leadership. Have someone to step to manage the community. -

Marcin is valuable as thought leadership, so need more of execution arm.

Real active community wrangler.
