Agenda

“Be the change that you want to see in the world” ~ Gandhi
We as ”collaboration solutions” professionals need to lead by example.
If we can show what an engaged community looks like, we can expect our customers to follow our example.
What’s the point?
www.ibm.com/socialug 4/12/16 4
• One place for users, business partners, and sponsors to go to network, share, learn, engage
• Find information about any ICS-based user group anywhere
• In addition, find information from IBM and from the community to help users implement, adopt, and use the products we all support
• Create a vibrant community with compelling content, where we can share ideas and knowledge
Community Goals
