“You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”

Why did no one respond to your survey?

Engagement is hard. Getting people to care, even if you offer oodles of prizes/incentives/bribes.

I love the quote from Winnie the Pooh that says, ‘You can’t stay in your corner of the Forest waiting for others to come to you. You have to go to them sometimes.”—Winnie the Pooh.

Go. To. Your. Audience.

Leave your office/home-office and get in amongst it.

Think about the barriers various people may have to getting involved, and offer alternatives.

Remember: some people need extra directions to find your area of the forest.
