The creation of a social media knowledge portrait begins by recognizing traditional work experiences, skills training, formal education, human passion, and emerging interests. Hobbies once unrelated, now become employable attributes.
- Generate a unique entrepreneurial knowledge base;
- Increase serendipity and connect to unforeseen opportunities;
- Diversify strategic pathways for sharing and collaboration;
- Inventory knowledge, expertise, skills and interest; and
- Connect knowledge investments to education, economic and workforce development.
Traditional workforce development actualized one career, one talent, or one skill.
But in today’s dynamic workplace, entrepreneurs must hone a diverse skill set, continuously cultivate complex connectivity, and adopt social behaviors focused on giving, attribution and reciprocity. |
