ABSTRACT

The change happening to the foundations of social capital presents special challenges that will be difficult for organizations to navigate. It will be even harder for ordinary people to deal with them because it is no longer possible for them to create Followership Agreements all by themselves. So, what can people actually do to smooth the transition? As the permanence of our durable networks of people slip away from us, what form of permanence will make growth sustainable? A good place to start is to rethink the concept of permanence at work.
