Building Successful Communities of Practice (en Inglés) - Emily Webber

Humans are wired to connect; they thrive in supportive environments where they feel they belong. When people don't feel connected, they quickly become demotivated and unhappy. At a time when the workplace is changing, organisational structures are flattening, and workforces are increasingly fluid, supporting and connecting people is more important than ever.

Communities of practice connect people across organisations around shared passions and practices, supporting one another, accelerating learning, breaking down silos, and building better practices.

In this expanded second edition, Emily Webber draws on her experience building successful communities of practice within organisations. As well as practical guidance to help you identify, form, grow, measure and supercharge your own, she covers the conditions needed for success, how to navigate common pitfalls, and introduces new models and strategies to help you along the way.
