What impact can you have on your engineering community?
Why do we hold community events?
Firstly, I would define a community as a safe place where members of a particular ecosystem can gather and openly discuss common interests, share problems, and share solutions.
Events are put together to help you and I connect and share knowledge. As engineers, we make better technical decisions when we talk to others in our field as engineers/designers etc.
There are different levels to getting involved with these events; from being an attendee to helping run one. The question is, which level suits you best?
Four levels of community involvement
Level 1: Sharing an event
There are several ways you can help promote an event: retweeting, sharing announcements, creating personal posts, discussing how the event is going, and also how successful it was.
