CONNECTOR
Based off of Gladwell's criteria, I believe I am a connector rather than a maven or salesman... And here are the reasons why:1. I would say I know a good amount of people for being 21 years "young." I know this number will grow with time and age, but from living in California, traveling during summers, and attending school in Alabama I have accumulated a lot of friends, connections, and acquaintances throughout the years. And because of this, I think that it is even easier for me to make new friends and meet new people regularly, and its not just that I can make new friends and meet new people, but I enjoy doing it.
2. I also like to keep friendships, relationships or even acquaintances open. I feel that I can talk to or connect with any of my relationships or acquaintances at anytime, even those that I consider to be "weak ties."
3. And lastly I know and connect with a variety of different people. My connections are from different places, vary in ages, and definitely have all different kinds of personalities. But I enjoy being around different people, I get to bored being in one place with the same people.
I feel that I work better with different people and diverse places and things that push me and introduce me to new things to learn, hence my belief that I am a connector.
