the power of networks

Not long ago, if someone mentioned the work ‘network’; we thought: TV or radio.

Now we think: Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter… these networks have become far more valuable to us. They exist because we contribute to them. They are where our best ideas can spread and have impact. Sometimes they even democratize power.

Of course they are more powerful than an individual… even a powerful individual- and they are more powerful than the ‘old’ networks, because they carry our voice.

It follows that what we can do as part of a network, as part of a collective, is far more impactful than what we can do all by ourselves.

Are you using all the networks available to you to amplify your voice?
