How can edge participants help to facilitate the move from push to pull? How to establish trust relationships between edge participants and organizations?
Knowledge at the edge requires trust-based relationships (p.55), edge participants must reach out to the core. Edge participants (brave souls) must be the ones who reach out and "give" in order to earn trust in the core (org). Edge participants need to be alert to opportunity. Edge participants must speak openly & reveal their networks as source of new ideas/approaches. Edge folks have had to find their own way to unique resources.

When an executive (or leader) wants to promote "pull" - what actions or behaviors best demonstrate the commitment? Our Gov has started announcing first on a FaceBook page and via Twitter. They walk the talk. Execs need to be consistent in their support. Pull is not a temporary solution. It’s a culture/paradigm shift. To promote pull, execs need to demo pull . . . * say, "I read this, and I learned this, so I tried this, and it worked..." To promote pull...quit pushing. Don't give all the answers/resources/direction. Trust folks to find the answers.
What are the ways organizations can foster “Creation Spaces” for optimal Pull?
Seems like recognition of individual needs helps creation. Good read “Why 8-hr workday doesn't make sense.” http://bit.ly/bdb219
Authors talk about 'old style' networking v. new. What has been your experience of that? What's changed, and what's been the result?

Still see old-style networking happening, like @ prof assoc meetings. 30 ppl in a room swapping biz cards- but not on Twitter. Old style networking limited to people I knew & wanted to know; more strategic. Today, unlimited, open, welcoming; serendipitous. New networking more focused on sharing for general good than positioning/selling self. (I hope...) Social media allows us to get to know someone, so if/when we meet in person, the conversation is richer.
