“Christine Porath has done it again! Mastering Community is a magnificent book everyone should read, share and apply.  Backed by empirical data, Chris focuses on the critical need to build better communities and connections within our workplaces and society today. We do this by creating gathering places where people feel they belong, matter, and are treated with respect and civility. Truly a timely and relevant book!”—Stephen M. R.
