Time 100 Influencers: The Trendsetters

Time Magazine Influencers And Their Impact
Time 100 influencers is on its way to magazine shelves around the world. Whether these people are really the most influential, is not an issue. They are world leaders in several areas of interest for the world population and they are changing the world for better or worst.

Oprah has been important for a while. However, she became more relevant after she sided with then candidate and now president of the most powerful country in the world.

Mr Obama is a great influencer as his decisions are changing US economy, US politics and how the US is being perceived by world governments and citizens who are following his activities as president of the US and as a world leader.

Oprah might have changed US political culture, and Mr Obama is expected to lead the world out of the economic crisis and into a new level of achievement. Influencers as they are, we have to become influencers to help build a better society and a better social and economic future.

The 100 Time influencers are not alone and there are a lot more who are helping to shape a better future for every citizen of this planet.
Influencers are very important as they create or encourage the creation of trends. Influencers create a viral reaction, as they create reputation transference.

Oprah and Obama are world brands, are names whose brand is being used to market ideas, business, economic and political ideas and propositions which are really viral. Somehow and with different levels, Influencers are creating impact around the world to promote ideas, purposes, images, trends and more.

The Time 100 Influencers are on the spot now, and the world is focusing its attention on 100 influencers who are creating great impact by creating or redirecting the trends which are changing the world. These 100 influencers are 100 brands which are being marketed around the world, creating impact by using the viral power of their brands.

The viral power of the Time Magazine Influencers are brands which marketing around the world is so viral that even unknown or low public image are now on the spot for the world to see them, learn about them and their activities and eventually profit from they image impact.

New relations are created by these 100 marketing phenomenon. The most powerful word of mouth marketing process is under way and a very powerful viral relationship brand marketing process is underway.

Whether we agree with Time Magazine or not something great about influencers is they are controversial, they have high visibility or they create trends on areas which visibility is important for many people.

Leaders, revolutionaries, builders, titans, artists, entertainers, heroes, icons, scientists and thinkers are the world´s most influential people as per Time Magazine.

Web 2.0 technologies have their share, and Twitter is a leading name as Stone Evans, Evan Williams and Jack Dorsay Twitter founders are given the credit for taking this Internet utility to the forefront of online communication, building relations and one of the largest Social Networks in the world.

In fact Twitter is more than instant messaging and has gone beyond social networking to become a communication standard around the world. From the White House and Capitol Hill to school students around the world are using Twitter and have made micro- blogging a real technological revolution.

Stone Evans, Evan Williams and Jack Dorsay are the creator´s of this communication system for family and friends, for business, for emergency situations and much more. Mr. Barack Obama is the one with the largest community of followers on Twitter and it reported Mr Obama is a great fan of Twitter.

Evan Williams had a leading role for another internet revolution: Blogger, which is one of the most popular blogging system under the Google banner. After the Google experience he launched Odeo, which is a podcasting service, in 2004 and was a kind of predecessor for Twitter which was launched in 2006 from a Jack Dorsay idea.

Also, there is a new icon for Americans and for millions around the world. As per Oprah Winfrey, “Michelle Obama doesn't just inspire us. She affirms us with her intelligence, authenticity, depth and compassion.” She is a world personality in her own right. She brings feelings, graciousness and joy to the White House in her multiple roles as First Lady, first Mother and a unique and glamorous woman.

Scientist and thinkers have their share in Time 100. The Internet and the economy also have their share on this 100 list of leaders who are creating impact by becoming the trend setters and the influencers in these troubled times.

Influencers are changing the world and the trends they create might change our lives too. Every drop in the ocean of change adds for a better, healthier and happy world we dream about and have the propelling power to join a planetary community of creative influencers.

The Power To Change Anything

Harvard Business Review and other leading publications are praising the New York Times best selling book the Influencer.

The authors, Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, David Maxfield, Ron McMillan, Al Switzler are innovators in best management practices and have worked with 300 of Fortune 500 companies.

An INFLUENCER replaces bad behaviour with powerful new skills. An Influencer motivates others to change. Making things happen is a task for an Influencer. Every one of us, whether in family or community environments or in Corporations we need people with influence enough to change people and circumstances.

During trying times, Influencers are most needed. An outstanding trait of Influencers is they keep going when most people around just stop trying and settle with circumstances because they thing change is too difficult or absolutely impossible.

Normal people develop complicated strategies and theories to show how difficult change is. In the mean time, Influencers take ACTION to learn and use the appropriate tools and techniques used by other Influential people around the world. Influential people are ready to create Impact

Influencers are as thrilled creating Impact as having sex. Influencers love what they are doing and have a great time doing what is needed for building a better environment.

Talent is frequently overrated. What really separates world class performers from anybody else is
that performers in any activity, keep learning and trying when everybody around are just describing how difficult the situations are.

Whether in sports, business, politics, or office Influencers are changing the world by taking Action in a very determined and perseverant way.

We should learn, develop and apply high impact actions leading to rapid and profound change. From the authors who taught the world how to have Crucial Conversations, comes Influencer, a thought-provoking book that combines the remarkable insights of behaviour leading to rapid and profound chance. Influencers from all walks of life around the world are creating important unbelievable improvements to solve problems and make our life better, healthier, more productive and comfortable.

Kerry Patterson, Joseph Grenny, David Maxfield, Ron McMillan, Al Switzler: bring us skills used by hundreds of successful individuals around the world who are creating increased productivity, more effectiveness and a better way of life. Influencer is a handbook for change and reflects the research on leadership and behaviour sciences.

The Influencer has no limits. Harnessing the power of Influence is a way to reach out and help others work more efficiently, achieve a better way of life both for health and emotion.

The authors have collected the experiences to write an example rich book. Managers and influencers know that influencing human behaviour is one of the most difficult challenges leaders face. Managers are invited to become facilitators. They must become leaders instead of managers. Influencers motivate others to change and make thing happen.

This new mindset, and the principles taught in this book are changing the way we think about our jobs and careers. It is an inspiring book. An invitation to take action to become better individuals, achieve more for our selves and society.

Global economy is more challenging than ever. Then we have to build valuable relationships to help sustain the competitive advantage needed to ensure success in business and industrial activities.

No matter how large or small our audiences are, we have the opportunity to influence and provoke change and Influencer give us the knowledge and tools to change minds and build behaviour in such a way as to build a better society by changing the mindset of the people we get in contact with.

Problems are solved by taking action and using the knowledge and skills to harness emotions and create new behaviour.

Even though the experiences leading to Influencer, are from the Corporate world, the behavioural and mind changing knowledge from this great book, may be used to change individuals and groups alike.

Influencer is an optimistic view of the world and is full of examples and practical techniques we can use immediately to create lasting and ambitious changes in our social environments no matter if they are corporate or not. It is an exciting mind changing handbook for anyone who is trying to create social change.

The Interactive Web 2 Communication

2 Way Communication And The Internet

Our websites are like our property in the world wide web.

Is there a way to find those weird named web properties that rank so high in the Search Engines?

Answering this pressing need to find those sites that rank so high in Yahoo, Google and MSN, is not an easy task. Something interesting about these sites is that every one of them belongs to a very unique way of providing information and most of all every one of them provides interactivity or 2 way communications between users and the site itself.

Most of them allow users to comment on the content of the site, they have sound, videos, photos and the comments of many users who have been there before.

These sites are what we call web 2 sites. There are great communities like Facebook, MySpace, Ning, YouTube and more, which main trait is that users interact with each other, they have a say on what others users are doing or talking about. Nowadays, being online is a great experience.

It is like joining a community of people of all walks of life who are looking for interesting things to do, build business and share feelings, passions, knowledge, experiences. The Internet community is like a huge ball room where every one is trying to join the people who enjoy the same or similar music styles.

Our wants, wishes, dreams, experiences are the first step. There is a question we want to have answers for. We go to a search engine and ask for information on the topic we are interested in. From there we find multiple possibilities. Even, millions. Then we focus our attention to find groups or communities whose members are working or have the same purpose that brought us online.

At first we join groups. When the Internet became a world communication and interrelated community there is a new social system where every thing is possible: business, dating, hobbies, crafts, friendship and more, when we join these social communities. Besides your likes, you enjoy videos, then you have YouTube, you are interested in movies then you have Flixter, you want to be in contact with friends, business associates and more, then you have Twitter.

Using 140 characters messages we let every one know what we are doing or what our immediate interest is. We want to talk online around the world we have Skype. We love sharing photos, we have Flickr.com When going web 2 your imagination has no limits.

This interactivity is called web 2 or Social Networking. Ning, for example is a place where we can join or create the communities that best suit our taste and or interest. Here at NING we find hundreds, thousands of Social Networks.

Ning communities sites allow we choose for the brand and design of our site, the profile of the people we want to join, the activities and or interest we want to share or talk about, decide what communities we want to keep in contact with. Share photos, videos, messages, create our blogs, create our own chat box, we have one click integration with Facebook, we can enable our own groups with photos membership comments, events and more.

Here is a Unique system to express our innermost passions, hidden talents, and all of things that we would want to spend our life doing. Who has influenced us in life the most? Who do we aspire to be? How do we want to be remembered, after we are long gone? Let us identify the top professional thing that we want others to associate us with.

Whatever the reason we are online, NING give us the opportunity to join or create the community which is more appropriate for our purpose. I am here for friendship and business.

In the internet, I found a resource center that contains thousands of highly powerful inspirational and motivational materials --- books, videos, audios, and modules, that are now uplifting and empowering my life, career, and relationships on a daily basis.

Online we measure our impact by our rankings in Search Engines. Search engine rankings are extremely important for a successful Internet marketing campaign and for our social standing. For business we must secure high rankings.

Before we go out and hire a search engine optimization company, try taking some simple steps, and see if you can't boost your rankings yourself. Don't ever ignore this all-important factor in Internet marketing. Remember, the higher our search engine ranking, the more quality customers will be directed our way.

Something great about Social Networks is that Search Engines love Social Networks sites. So, besides being an awesome means when we share our interests, inclinations, expertise and friendship building abilities, Social Networks deliver high rankings on the Search Engines.

You might remember why people are coming to the Internet: They are looking for INFORMATION. When we rank high on Search Engines, we have the opportunity to be seen by those who want to know something about something. So, if we have the information people are looking for and we rank high on Search Engines, then we have to have great information with great content and a compelling message for people to think we are the answer they are looking for.

When we use high traffic Social Networks like Facebook, Ning, MySpace and we have the appropriate message and the products and services needed to help people achieve their dreams, then we are on our way to success.

Let us build good relations with recognized people in our communities, link to interesting sites in our area of interest, learn and share our knowledge, help as many people as we can and become a real authority in our group or community.

When we join these high ranking interrelated sites we get in contact with real people who are online to learn and share their knowledge or expertise, to let us know their achievements, success stories, or just how they have solved a household or everyday situation. And most interesting we can do all these in real time, instantly.

Join me on Twitter and post your comments here and be part of the web 2 era. The communication age is here and everyone of us can participate. Let Social Networks be part of our life. There is a blog, community or group for us to share our thoughts, feelings, hobbies, or whatever interest us.
