Uncommon Ideas that Build Engagement

What fuels engagement? In my attempt to define genuine engagement, I have been pulling words out of the research to identify the building blocks of engagement. These thoughts, feelings, and behaviors may lead us to more engaging communities:

  • Inclusive
  • Smart
  • Helpful
  • Safe
  • Familiar
  • Unexpected
  • Connection
  • Belonging
  • Welcoming
  • Warm
  • Friendly
  • Kind
  • Kooky
  • Silly
  • Fun
  • Fresh
  • New
  • Provocative
  • Revelatory
  • Synergistic
  • Revolutionary
  • Affirming
  • Toughtful
  • Open
  • Generous

Which of these building blocks would you like to lean into today?
