-
Brokerage is an important term.
-
It connects otherwise disconnected groups
-
and helps drive innovation
and other top-line improvements.
-
Innovation. Ideation. Revenue.
-
These are all things improved
when we have access quickly
-
—ideally, first mover advantage—
-
to fresh thinking, and fresh resources,
and fresh information.
-
We contrast this with closure.
-
Closure is relationships
that form among ourselves,
-
that reinforce strong, trusted,
-
emotionally deep relationships.
-
This kind of social capital
is essential for building
-
stability, trust and collaboration
within teams.
-
Social capital
isn't just about managing networks.
-
It's about tapping into tacit knowledge
the unspoken insights
-
and experiences
that can transform your leadership.
-
Tacit knowledge is often
referred to as sticky knowledge,
-
because it's hard to move around
the sticks to the moment in time.
-
The people around it and moving it across
organizational boundaries
-
is a key piece of the puzzle.
-
That social capital unlocks.
-
You'll learn how to use this
hidden expertise to make better decisions
-
and guide your team
through complex challenges.
-
You also harness
-
social capital
to develop yourself as a leader.
-
Building and maintaining strong
relationships is key
-
not only for your organizations success,
but also for your personal growth.
