From the presentation of Jessica Lipnack and Jeffrey Stamps of Netage at Enterprise 2.0 in Boston last June:
Decide to network
Use every letter you write
Every conversation you have
Every meeting you attend
To express your fundamental beliefs and dreams
Affirm to others the vision of the world you want
Network through thought
Network through action
Network through love
Network through the spirit
You are the center of the world
You are a free, immensely powerful source
of life and goodness
Affirm it
Spread it
Radiate it
Think day and night about it
And you will see a miracle happen:
the greatness of your own life.
In a world of big powers, media, and monopolies
But of six billion individuals
Networking is the new freedom
the new democracy
a new form of happinessROBERT MULLER
Robert Muller is a former Assistant Secretary-General of the United Nations and Chancellor Emeritus, UN University for Peace. He wrote this for Jessica Lipnack and Jeffrey Stamps in honor of their first book, Networking (Doubleday, 1982).
