On Twitter in the Workplace, It’s Power to the Connectors

We can not deny! Twitter is one of the main hurricanes of this year 2010. More and more companies are using it. What will be the main key success of a career?

If you want to have a contemporary career success the main skill is be THE CONNECTOR. That is to say have a strong ability of creating relationships with the other and connecting people between groups. The other main skill is your capacity to evolve in a self organizing network.
Nowadays the power is given to the human network whereas before it was more by formal hierarchies. Horizontal relationships with share and distributed leadership are erasing the classical vertical power.
You can learn and develop those skills by sharing with the other and with your willingness to continue to making relationships, passing on information and communicate among a community. Don’t forget the simple is the rule: “Power goes to connector”.
Indeed being efficient with formal assignments is no longer sufficient, you have to be the best connector to win and have success!
