About Us

The Community Manager is the main source for all community management-related information, including the latest news, case studies and reports.

Community Management has become one of the most sought after positions among the digitally savvy, and companies of all sizes have quickly adopted it.  Its place in business is equal parts integral and confusing, and is a term that can define a myriad of job functions.

Our goal is to bring clarity to the role and help community managers understand how their role fits within the core functions of their company.
