Hi friends! I was affected by the layoffs at @HubSpot today. This is my second layoff in 9 months, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't feel extremely deflated. If you or someone you know is looking for someone in the frontend/accessibility/design systems space, I’m all ears.

You can’t expect one community manager to
· handle all communications
· post on multiple channels
· engage with community 24/7
· do social listening
· create reports
· do customer service & crisis management
· arrange partnerships
AND expect them to be good at ALL of it

IF YOUR GIRLFRIEND ASKS IF YOU WOULD STILL LOVE HER IF SHE WAS A WORM, JUST SAY YES. SHE WILL NEVER BE A WORM. YOU WILL NEVER ACTUALLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH THAT. BUT YOU WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH THE GIRLFRIEND WHO THINKS YOU WOULDN'T LOVE HER IF SHE WAS A WORM AND SHE IS MAD

If you are hiring for a Community role, please share. My Community colleagues at Shopify were unfortunately laid off this morning and would greatly appreciate your support.

Unsolicited career advice: pursue a job u love, even if it doesnt give u much recognition. Find work in the space industry. Meet friendly folks. Hop on a spaceship and befriend the engineer. Kill them w/ ur bare hands while u're both in the cafeteria and blame it on someone else.

If you’re on the look out for another #community role, make sure your next company has these 3 things for you to succeed…
1️⃣ Work in a community team vs solo
2️⃣ Community reports directly to the CEO
3️⃣ A manager who allows you to work autonomously

Burnout happens. A lot. And if it's something your teams are grappling with, don't take it personally. There are actionable, sustainable ways business leaders can battle it -- and our CPO, Katie Burke, recently shared her top three tips in @Inc. Let's have a look in the 🧵.

Before starting communities, companies should ask:
"How will we react if community feedback is at odds with an important project?"
a) Listen & respond unconditionally
b) Balance interests & communicate
c) Tell community we hear them, but can't deliver (right now/at all)
