A connector is essentially the [human] equivalent of a computer network hub. We usually know people across an array of social, cultural, professional, and economic circles, and make a habit of introducing people who work or live in different circles. We are people who ''link [...] up with the world...people with a special gift for bringing the world together. We are ''a handful of people with a truly extraordinary knack [for] making friends and acquaintances''. We have an ''ability to span many different worlds [which is] a function of something intrinsic to [our] personality, some combination of curiosity, self-confidence, sociability, and energy''.
