yanni kyriacos comments on yanni’s Shortform

[yanni kyriacos]

I beta tested a new movement building format last night: online networking. It seems to have legs.

V quick theory of change:
> problem it solves: not enough people in AIS across Australia (especially) and New Zealand are meeting each other (this is bad for the movement and people’s impact).
> we need to brute force serendipity to create collabs.
> this initiative has v low cost

quantitative results:
> I purposefully didn’t market it hard because it was a beta. I literally got more people that I hoped for
> 22 RSVPs and 18 attendees
> this says to me I could easily get 40+
> average score for below question was 7.27, which is very good for a beta test

I used Zoom, which was extremely clunky. These results suggest to me I should;
> invest in software designed for this use case, not zoom

> segment by career stream (governance vs technical) and/​or experience (beginner vs advanced)
> run it every second month

I have heaps of qualitative feedback from participants but don’t have time to share it here.
