stanley.rosenberg Mar 1, 2017 12:17 PM (in response to Libby Taylor)Hi,
I just starting working at a small therapeutics company called Intarcia. I am the Senior manager of Training operations. Basically I make sure we have all the tools needed for training to occur including administering our LMS. There are many ways to get and share information which is outside the scope of training. I am hoping to use Jive to communicate key information, share best practices and use the group site as an informal training vehicle i.e. check out this video...
My top question is how can I learn to build my group (web page) so that it looks good and has the needed functionality. I am struggling to find this basic information.
What I hope to get out of this collaborative classroom experience are tips, tricks and useful features that I can utilize that are not well publicized.

Libby Taylor Mar 1, 2017 12:54 PM (in response to stanley.rosenberg)Hi Stan, what your talking about is what we call social learning. You know, you could use the [Archived] The Onboarding Class as an example of a good template for a learning/training place. We worked with several of our customers who also run learning programs through their Jive community to make sure we were hitting the mark for how we presented information and what to present.
Your first steps to building a place in my mind would be:
- Decide if you want a group or space: Spaces and Groups
- Decide if you want to use widgets or tiles (I recommend using tiles): Pages (Tiles) versus Overview (Widgets) Matrix Tile Pages Versus Widget Pages
- If you go with tiles: Cloud: Modifying Place Tiles & Pages
- If you go with widgets: Setting Up a Place's Overview Page
This should be a good place to start! Let me know if you have any questions.

madoree Mar 1, 2017 1:08 PM (in response to Libby Taylor)1 person found this helpfulHello Libby Taylor
Role in my Community: I'm the Internal Communications Manager at Medallia, a Silicon Valley company that creates enterprise software that improves the customer experience. On our Jive intranet, called The Loop, I manage our overall homepage editorial calendar and assist each of our space community administrators to maintain a healthy adoption and engagement for the respective spaces.
My top challenge: While I'm not new to intranets, I am new to Jive. There is a learning curve to understand for how each feature can work best for different use cases. In addition, the company uses many tools across the organization so migration and general adoption to make Jive the optimal "one stop shop" is tricky.
What you hope to get out of this collaborative classroom experience: I'd like to ensure I'm growing my network and learning best practices from everyone participating to meet our team's overall goals and succeed in our vision for The Loop.

I'm Heather, I'm the IT Manager at a smallish company that makes custom hair color - eSalon. We're just starting to get into Jive and it's my first experience with this platform so I'm looking forward to absorbing as much as possible and bring it to all the folks at my company.
My biggest challenge at the moment is getting through the onslaught of onboarding materials! Once I can cull that a bit, I hope to give recommendations to the internal team here on what they should review to make the platform a success.
No immediate questions, but glad to be here.

Libby Taylor Mar 1, 2017 1:44 PM (in response to madoree)Welcome Madoree! I think we are definitely going to be able to help you here. You can begin by connecting to others here in this onboarding group and I suggest that you head over to Jive Internal Communities and get to know the folks there as well. We have a very vibrant community of people and I can attest that you get what you put into it.
You mentioned that it's hard to get full adoption to Jive when there are so many other tools to use. You hit on a major truth there. What I've found is that when you have that situation, you need to find those key activities in which you can ONLY use Jive and then really drive that activity home. Feel free to tell us more about what you are seeing by either starting a new discussion in [Archived] The Onboarding Class or even a discussion in Internal Communities. You're going to get a lot of support here. Cheers!

Libby Taylor Mar 1, 2017 1:46 PM (in response to heatherw)Welcome Heather! I love eSalon and have walked through the color matching system multiple times just for fun. One thing I know about Jive... it's such a different way of doing things, of getting stuff done, that there's no way to avoid the fire hose of information. Take your time. Ask questions, you are definitely not alone. Asking questions can get you answers faster than searching sometimes, so please feel free to speak up if you need help or a pointer for how to get around.

heatherw Mar 1, 2017 1:57 PM (in response to Libby Taylor)Feel free to visit us if you're ever in Los Angeles! We have a salon on site and our color experts can talk through all those different colors if you're considering.
And yes, "fire hose of information" is on the nose. I'll keep it in mind to ask questions as I dig deeper. Thanks!
