Building Communities That Work – Emily Webber on The Product Experience [Mind the Product]


Emily Webber speaks at mtpcon London

It can be tough, even at the best of times, to remain engaged at work – to find a community of people to share with and learn from. Emily Webber’s seen this in action and has started (and nurtured) successful communities both at work and at home. She joined us to continue where her 2018 Mind the Product talk left off and to go deeper into how to build great communities with remote teams.

Quote of the Episode

Really effective communities that I’ve seen… have that sense of community where people feel like they have peers that can support them. Peers that can really help them, keep them motivated and engaged, and all those wonderful things in their roles.
