I don’t like these words but need people good at change mgmt, knowledge mgmt, talent mgmt. We need community organizers, community moderators. And marketing/PR (even if just internally).

I wanna be the Gary V of our community. Only I will curse less.
Andrea, start pumping out the videos and vooks!
