While community can't be forced, it can be actively encouraged and nurtured. Vogl lays out seven time-tested principles that every leader can apply to grow enduring, effective, and supportive communities. The principles are distilled from 3,000 years of spiritual traditions, but Vogl has secularized and universalized them so they can enrich a wide array of communities-formal or informal, physical or virtual, and centered on any shared interest. Vogl describes each principle's purpose and provides extensive hands-on tools for creatively adapting them to the style, needs, and inclinations of your particular group. He also helps leaders ensure that their communities remain healthy and life affirming. This is a guide to bringing friendship, connection, and support to where there had been loneliness, separation, and isolation.
