Part B:Power of Networks in Introducing and Sustaining Change

In a brief paper, 3-4 pages, analyze existing networks within your department/organization. Explore how these social networks interconnect people throughout parts of your organization. Identify individuals within the network who are in a position to influence others–not because of positions alone but from their placement within the network and the resources they can distribute to others. Explore the strength of this collective leadership to generate innovation and sustain change. Draw upon allusions from our readings and the video to situate your thinking.
