"The great challenge for the next several decades will be to advance understanding of social systems in the same way that the past century has advanced understanding of the physical world. "
Jay Forrester
It's been an intense week with the focus being on relationships - personal and business. Lots of discussion and connection, some of which was very effective in achieving goals.
The traditional resources that are cited as available to individuals are time , energy and money. Indeed, much effort in the past has centred on these three resources. However, there is tremendous power that can be derived from relationships. And indeed, by leveraging relationships, one can "gain" more time, energy and/or money. That in itself would make relationships take the MVR (Most Valuable Resource) title. But there's more. Relationships can provide opportunities and ideas. and most critically of all, more relationships. The upward spiral is virtually infinite.
This is where social networking has its value. The availablity of a virtually unlimited resource that simply needs to be grown and nurtured like a precious crop.
