#25 Mini Series – How to influence Generation C “5″
November 30, 2009 by Jake Pearce
Welcome to the fifth in our mini series exploring how to influence Generation C – ageless, digital natives.
In Mini Series “1″ we explored Malcolm Gladwell’s “Tipping Point” as a way to get a few influencing ‘the many’ with Mavens, Connectors and Sales people.
In Mini Series “2″ I identified that Connectors are only half of the picture when it comes to broadcasting a message – you also need Conductors,which I define in overview.
In Mini Series “3″ I broke down the four types of Conductors briefly to start to understand how they can influence people – naturally including Generation C
In Mini Series “4″ we investigated further the key differences between Connectors and Conductors and their relative regularity and visibility of influence
So – watch this video (4 minutes 35 seconds long) and consider:
- The four types of Conductor (Information, Debate, Social and Debate Conductors)
- What kind of people they are and how they influence their core network
To build an understanding of the eco systems of influence with a view to knowing how to influence Generation C itself.
What kind of Conductor influenced you this week?

Welcome to the fourth in our mini series exploring how to influence Generation C – ageless, digital natives.
In Mini Series “1″ we explored Malcolm Gladwell’s “Tipping Point” as a way to get a few influencing ‘the many’ with Mavens, Connectors and Sales people.

In Mini Series “3″ I broke down the four types of Conductors briefly to start to understand how they can influence people – naturally including Generation C
In this (the 4th of our Mini Series on how to influence Generation C) we investigate further the key differences between Connectors and Conductors.
So – watch this video (3 minutes 30 seconds long) and understand:
- the relative regularity with which Connectors and Conductors influence Generation C; and
- the relative visibility of either type of influencer to Generation C
So – were you influenced by a Connector and/or a Conductor this week? Let us know!

Welcome to the third in our mini series exploring how to influence Generation C – ageless, digital natives.
In Mini Series “1″ we explored Malcolm Gladwell’s “Tipping Point” as a way to get a few influencing ‘the many’ with Mavens, Connectors and Sales people.
In Mini Series “2″ I identified that Connectors are only half of the picture when it comes to broadcasting a message – you also need Conductors,which I define in overview.
In today’s video, I break down the 4 types of Conductor that exist to explain how they can influence people in their sphere in different ways.
The video is about 4 minutes long…
What kind of conductors have influenced you to take action in the last 3 months?
Until next time….
#22 Mini series – how to influence Generation C “2″
November 6, 2009 by Jake Pearce
In last week’s VLOG we looked at Malcolm Gladwell’s model from the Tipping point of how the few can influence the many and I concluded that it’s more complicated than that.
In this video (the second in this mini series on digital influencers) I identify and explain the difference between Connectors and what I call Conductors and why the latter are critical in solving how to influence Generation C – namely, adopted or born ageless digital natives.
Check out the video – it’s about 4 minutes long.
Who are your Conductors and how have they influenced you to take action in any sphere of you life?
