These are the “Ideal 40 People” in your network who
will serve your destination. You will have the most in
depth relationship and rapport with these people and
they will help you in your career path. This is an
evolving list of ranked connections. These
connections can change in rank or be removed if it
proves that there are others that seem to be a better
fit. It does not mean that you will not maintain contact
or relationship with them, you will just focus on
working with the Top ID40 to achieve your ideal
career movements.
