Here are a small selection of reviews from Amazon:

If you are trying to understand, build and grow communities this is a must read book

Author Jono Bacon has produced another fantastic book, this one focused on understanding, building and growing communities. People Powered is relevant to anyone trying to build communities for any industry or sector. If you are part of a non-profit, consumer, or government you can learn from what Jono details in the book around all the different models of communities (Consumers, Champions, and Collaborators). He has put together a clear road map of what you need to do to get started, why you are doing each of those activities, how to measure your performance and stay focused. There is also good advice about what to expect and how to set expectations for management too. After all, executives want to see results. They invested money in building a community and you need to be able to articulate and communicate what value and benefits they are getting and how the community impacts the bottom line. Take the time and read what Jono has spent years refining and learn from his hard won lessons as a practitioner in the field at some of the most successful community orientated companies in the technology industry.

A valuable resource for community leaders

A strong community can lead to a strong business

Jono Bacon’s practical guide to building and nurturing communities is brilliant. As a venture capitalist who has invested in many community-based business models (e.g., MongoDB, Codecademy, Splice), I have seen the power of community in delivering business success as well as personal rewards and fulfillment for community members. Bacon nails the underlying behavioral drivers behind community as well as the business drivers. Most impressive, though, is his pratical step-by-step guide to creating a more effective community-based strategy. I highly recommend this book to entrepreneurs, managers and investors alike who want to (as Bacon puts it) “supercharge” their business with the power of community.

Excellence in community building
