DevConf.US 2022 is the 5th annual, free, Red Hat sponsored technology conference for community project and professional contributors to Free and Open Source technologies coming to Boston this August!!
This presentation targets an audience of advanced practitioners — learners who are already contributing to an open-source community in a leadership position and want to be able to lead and grow the community more effectively.
These learners may be asking questions like: - Why do people choose to lead open source projects and communities? - What's the difference between participating in and leading a project? - How can I ensure a community grows sustainably? - How can I spread the word about this project or community? - What type of a leadership structure does a community require?
This presentation is best for audiences who want to develop a "long-term vision" for their open source community but might not know how to begin. At the conclusion of this experience, participants will be able to: - Describe key differences between community participation and community leadership - Recognize challenges that new community leaders can face - Identify strategies for both increasing and sustaining community participation - Understand how to measure the success of community involvement and how to communicate that success to others
