Liz Lathan, co-founder of The Community Factory, discusses the importance of building engaging communities. The conversation covers the concept of unconferences and spontaneous think tanks, why the stories behind brands are more important than the name, why events must be design for connection in order to provide great networking, sponsor activations need to be designed into the core conversation and why communities need a leader, plus what core components every community needs in order to succeed.
