WELCOME TO THE POWER OF NETWORKS!
THANK YOU FOR BEING GREAT, COOL & KICK-ASS!
You helped us recognize the wonderful and cool kick-ass women
in your network! They returned your recognition with warm
emotional messages. And the number of messages just kept
growing exponentially…
In Innovisor, it has been a feel-good week! We have observed
how contagious positivity and love us. As a result, we have
become even more convinced of the exponential power of
networks. Which is also the world of Innovisor...
We have build this little report to show you what happened this
week, while we – together with you – celebrated the cool & kick-
ass women. We hope you will be inspired!
Happy International Women’s Day

3. Networks hold the power of contagion. Like a flu that spreads from
one person to another the same things happens with feelings,
emotions and perceptions inside organizations.
For organizations it is vital to know the network and engage with
it. Your organizational network is a web of ongoing conversations,
which holds an untapped potential when driving change. In fact,
they are a hidden asset waiting to be activated.
In the activation, there is a shortcut. Only 3% of your employees
shape the perceptions of up to 90% of their peers. Engaging them
is key, if you want to succeed with any type of change. Otherwise
you might catch a flu of resistance.
So back to your recognitions, let's turn the page and see how they
developed ...

YOU DEMONSTRATED TWO DIFFERENT TYPES OF NETWORK BEHAVIORS
10% OF YOU WERE BROKERS
Brokers are crucial for fostering cross-
functional work. Brokers act as a bridges
between two or more groups (in our case
between countries)
They are particularly important to engage
in Outward-oriented Innovative initiatives
90% OF YOU WERE CONNECTORS
Connectors tie together individuals within a
group. Connectors play crucial roles in
creating more cohesive organizations.
They are particularly important to engage
internal organizational activities; like M&A
integration, Organizational Restructuring or
Agility initiatives
