Giving Up Control - Listen to Marnie Webb

I caught a good article for non profits using social networks to move forward. The article is great, but a quote inside of the article gave me some goose bumps. You’ve heard me say it before, but it’s nice to see coming out of other’s mouths:

“Give up some control. When you start letting the details out, those passionate people are going to comme up with own ideas about what you can do. Let them take those ideas and run with them. Resist the urge to take them over or tell them what would work better. Instead, point to them proudly”

There is no better essence of what participating in social networking on the Web can do for you. A thousand voices is stronger than one any day. Read Marnie’s post.
