3. What is PULL? The power to draw resources and people when we need them to solve problems and meet challenges

4. “ By beginning to build a reputation for being helpful, either by resolving existing problems or providing insights that suggest new opportunities, individuals can begin to attract attention from people that matter.” Hagel, Brown, and Davison

5. Pull is about PASSION driven learning

6. It begins with learning where and how to ACCESS resources but also...

7. ... learning how to ATTRACT as well It’s about FINDABILITY

8. “ We begin to see how social networks can provide us with an unparalleled opportunity to achieve our potential by allowing us to access resources and attract people who can help us while we help them.” Hagel, Brown, and Davison

9. We can create SERENDIPITY by entering situations and positioning ourselves to be with people who share our passions

10. “ The goal is not merely to generate serendipitous encounters; it is to draw out the potential for such encounters by becoming known as a helpful and insightful contributor.” Hagel, Brown, and Davison

11. Information = knowledge stocks Co-creating knowledge = knowledge flows

12. Pull thinkers move to the EDGE to achieve new perspectives and to learn

13. “ We can no longer afford to wait around in the core for edge ideas to arrive. We have to seek them out by going to the edges—wherever they are—ourselves.” Hagel, Brown, and Davison

14. But we create institutional change by moving our edge experiences back to the CORE

15. The real work of leadership? TALENT DEVELOPMENT

16. With so many people, products, info, and ideas, we must focus to achieve ROA: Return on Attention

17. “ Pull only works when a given action or interaction is in the interest of all parties concerned.” Hagel, Brown, and Davison
