Community Manager Appreciation Day is Monday, January 28th, 2019, and while it's a celebration that may get overlooked in your own organization, we want to celebrate and recognize the hard work you do.
Community managers wear so many hats. You are the connectors of the group or entire network. You are pulling people into conversations to build relationships, even when its beyond your job description.
We appreciate you, regardless of the size of your community.
We are grateful for the impact you are having on the group of people around you.
