Measuring the success of on-line communities in an enterprise networking tool

Lester J. HoltzblattLaurie E. Damianos

pp. 188-196

Abstract

We look at self-forming communities on one company's externally-facing business networking tool to better understand factors contributing to the success of a community. We propose that there is no single measure of success of a community; success of different kinds of communities depends on a variety of factors, including the perspective of the stakeholders and the type of community established.
