Organizations need dot connectors as they bring rationality, analysis, intuition, and creativity into play. They assimilate information from all spheres, make sense of it and then eliminate the noise so the output is presented in an appetizing way.
Dot connectors need to tap into their amassed knowledge, experience, mistakes, awareness, and the happenings in an ever-changing world, and combine them to arrive at the full picture. They need to be futurists and innovators with an uncanny ability to see the “forest from the trees” yet still take in the details of the trees.
Being able to connect the dots requires pushing through ambiguity and creating structure from the chaotic. The joy comes from being able to put it all together in a meaningful and understandable way.
So….bring out your inner child and enjoy connecting the dots.
