03-18, 14:40–15:10 (Europe/Berlin), Stage 1
Does your project struggle to keep members motivated — and empowered? Community managers and helpers already have too much to keep track of logistically. Recognition, Incentive, Support, and Empowerment (R.I.S.E.) is a quick framework to evaluate initiatives and projects in order to foster community health. Integrate this approach into a community's cultural and organizational efforts to improve long term success in engagement. Using the Fedora Project as a case study, this session will explore how to implement R.I.S.E in your FOSS community.
