=====Connectors and Keepers =====
<blockquote>For the past ten years, LEADERSHIP Philadelphia has led a pioneering civic effort to identify Connectors – a term created by Malcolm Gladwell in ''The Tipping Point'' to describe trusted citizens who seem to know everyone and can be counted on to get things done, often under the radar.

In order to keep young professionals here, we need to cultivate and connect them to create lasting ties. To that end, we asked citizens to help identify Philadelphia’s most promising and impactful young people – the “keepers.” '''<u>[http://www.leadershipphiladelphia.org/programs/connectors-keepers/ (More)]</u>'''</blockquote>
