Sarah Bailey, Co-founder and CEO at Open Format, shares how community managers can move beyond engagement metrics to build participation economies where contributions have visible, measurable value. With a background spanning innovation, leadership, and Web3 communities, Sarah presents a vision for transforming communities from passive audiences into active ecosystems where members are recognized and rewarded for the culture they create.
In this session Sarah shares:
✅ How to shift from measuring clicks and likes to tracking meaningful contributions that drive real growth
✅ The framework for identifying "unrecognized heroes" who create culture but remain invisible in reports
✅ Real-world examples from gaming (Roblox's [tag / @roblox ] billion-dollar creator economy) and global sports clubs redefining fan engagement
✅ Why Gen Z and Gen Alpha demand co-creation, not consumption, and how to design for it ✅ The opportunity to move from being moderators of activity to architects of culture
✅ Practical questions to audit your community: Who are your unrecognized heroes? What drives value but doesn't show up in dashboards?
KEY TAKEAWAY: The future of digital culture belongs to community managers who can design systems where contributions are not just happening, but encouraged, recognized, and rewarded.
