The #rippleeffect in small initiatives refers to the idea that even modest actions or changes can have far-reaching consequences, influencing people and circumstances beyond their immediate scope. Just like a pebble dropped into a pond creates expanding ripples, small initiatives can lead to significant impacts over time Here's how the ripple effect works in small initiatives: 1. Inspiration and Motivation: When individuals or groups undertake small initiatives, they often inspire others to take action as well. Witnessing someone make a positive change can motivate others to follow suit, creating a domino effect of action and involvement. 2. Awareness and Education: Small initiatives can raise awareness about important issues or causes, sparking conversations and prompting people to learn more. As information spreads, more individuals may become motivated to contribute in their own way, amplifying the initiative's impact. 3. Community Engagement: Small initiatives foster a sense of community and collaboration, bringing people together around a shared goal or purpose. Through collective action, communities can address local challenges, build relationships, and strengthen social bonds, leading to sustained positive change. 4. Catalyst for Larger Change: Small initiatives often serve as catalysts for larger-scale transformation. What starts as a grassroots effort may gain momentum over time, attracting resources, attention, and support from a broader audience or institution. Small wins can pave the way for more ambitious projects or policy changes. 5. Personal Growth and Empowerment: Participating in small initiatives can empower individuals to make a difference and develop leadership skills. By taking action and seeing tangible results, people gain confidence in their ability to effect change, inspiring them to tackle even greater challenges in the future. 6. Long-Term Impact: The effects of small initiatives can endure long after the initial action has taken place. Whether it's planting trees, mentoring a student, or volunteering at a local shelter, the positive outcomes of small initiatives can ripple outward, enriching lives and communities for years to come. Overall, the ripple effect demonstrates the power of collective action and underscores the importance of even the smallest contributions toward positive change. By initiating small acts of kindness, advocacy, or innovation, individuals can set in motion a chain reaction of impact that reverberates far beyond their original intentions.

When approaching a project, developing an organization, or operating a service, the smallest common denominator is the human being. Whether an owner, leader, subordinate, partner, customer, or user, there are always people in the background. We plan for them and with them. If we aim for a good product, service, team, atmosphere, and culture, we need a holistic approach where both we and our people evolve. We've been working on this approach for a while now, and soon, it will manifest in reality through the social design framework. More information will be shared shortly. #socialdesignframework Appy Nonprofit Zrt. György Káli Schranc Tünde Judit Oprics

What I've learned about establishing a Community of great people around me....it leads to even more Community. First off stop waiting...if your calendar has zero community reflected in it....change that today ------> Just start - get coffee or lunch booked, get a mentor session booked, get a mentee session booked. What I've learned.... 1. DOORS OPEN and this creates more community. AKA opportunity ....I have learned and have been the recipient of doors being opened. Doors for me, for them, for others.....simply by striving to grow a strong community and looking for ways to add value to the lives of others. 2. FULFILLMENT I feel more fulfilled when my leadership and impact extends beyond the workplace. Community just naturally makes this happen. 3. GROWTH You can't change your life or the lives of others if you don't really know what's going on inside. Community creates the space to learn what's really going on and when that door opens....step through and watch others step up for you as well. If your sense of community is low msg me (look at your calendar for a true rating) If your organization doesn't have a feeling of strong community and connection - msg me If you simply want to get started in building a strong community - send the msg, book the coffee and watch what happens. Live a longer, happier life.....go get you some community.

How does Youth Entrepreneurship contribute to sustainable cities and communities? Well, simply put, in order to be sustainable, we need all community participants to work together. We can't leave anyone out. Plus, the youth of today have so many FRESH IDEAS that can help us address some of the issues that past generations have created. We NEED those ideas to get to sustainability. But those youth need to trust us enough to share their thoughts. And we need them to be connected enough to the community to know where to share them. This is what we're all about at SIYS | Struggle Is Your Success - giving youth a PLACE to build trust, community, and confidence in their ideas. Are you looking to join a community like that?

In the realm of business and leadership, generosity is often viewed as a sign of virtue. But what if it's also a mark of intelligence? According to research, people with higher IQs often exhibit unselfish values, contribute more to charity, and focus on negotiating better deals for others. They don’t simply act out of selflessness; they’re strategic thinkers who recognize the long-term benefits of prioritizing the collective good over short-term self-interest. Why is this significant in today’s world? In a landscape where competition can sometimes drive a self-first mentality, those who prioritize giving often find themselves reaping more profound rewards. Generosity fosters trust, builds networks, and creates environments where collaboration thrives. In business, this translates to stronger teams, more effective negotiations, and ultimately, greater success. Generosity isn't about giving at the expense of your own goals. It's about understanding that lifting others can, in turn, elevate you. It's a mindset that aligns with long-term, sustainable growth – both personally and professionally. So, the next time you find yourself at a crossroads between taking a shortcut for personal gain or acting in a way that serves the broader community, consider this: the smartest path may well be the one that values giving over taking. How have you seen generosity impact your career or business success?

I’m sick and tired of “Networking”. I want an environment that gets me. I’ve had enough of small talk and card swapping and being over talked, under listened, and undervalued. Time for a change that will be a better ROI of my time and hard earned. So I used AI to find a new way to interact with others. Guess what, I found my way forward. It’s called Community. Not networking and transaction hunting. It’s about being curious, being listened to, listening loudly to others, road testing an idea, sharing a frustration and all within an environment of learning and development. I want to engage when I'm comfortable not because of rules and regulations and requirements. I’m not judged, my views are welcome as are my questions and possible solutions. I can find ways to unearth areas where collaboration will thrive, and ideation is natural. I have conversations that go to the heart of purpose and how to create value for my clients and those in my community. I understand that it's not what’s in it for me, but what’s in it for others. My happy place is Your Time Matters business community. Be welcomed, be inspired, be curious (and not be required to follow rules and regulations) and make your new mantra "it's not what’s in it for me, but what’s in it for others". If you understand this, then that's community building. Join me. 😀 https://lnkd.in/gcrGmWEQ

I am grateful to The League of Intrapreneurs for publishing my article ‘The Future Of Work Is Community Powered’ Check it out here: https://bit.ly/3XRgwoR. Read the highlights below: In this era of profound transformation to our social fabric leaders should strive to incentivize community building within their organizations and support new ways of working that enable genuine connection and knowledge sharing. It’s simple: we crave community, we build it and we grow as a result. I have spent the past 20 years building communities to unleash creativity and impact in the world. Let me share six tenets that have emerged as key ingredients while building communities within traditional and non-traditional structures: 1. A Sense of Purpose Leads to Greater Benefits -How might you align people in your company and/or industry around a shared need and purpose? 2.  Close Connections Amongst Diverse People Lead to Resilience -How might you intentionally invite different actors into a community that will support each other over time and evolve into an ecosystem? 3. Collaboration Leads to Faster Learning  -How might you leverage and connect with existing networks of trusted collaborators to speed up your learning journey?  4. Communities- when nurtured properly - Retain Underrepresented Talent -How are you contributing to uplift represented communities and facilitating safe spaces? As an migrant from Colombia in the U.S, half indigenous, a mother and a woman, I have found in communities the support and nurturing to get to where I am today. How are you nurturing communities around you? Big shout out to many collaborators and mentors who have helped me in my work with communities along the years ☀️Scott Shigeoka, Em Havens Daniela Restrepo Ortiz, Danielle Shingleton, Jason Rissman, Tim Brown, Kerem Alper ,Juliana Uribe Villegas, Fernando Ma, Mitch Carter Jafery, Jessy Tolkan and many more I do not have space to mention.
