Shane Feldman believes community is the answer to every question and the solution to every problem. Having researched community leadership in 30 countries, Feldman has uncovered universal strategies for building engaged communities. Today, he helps leading organizations, including Fortune 500s, optimize team culture and leadership for increased talent and client retention.
