How do modern leaders view social capital?

I like the stuff at Connectedness. Bruce does a good job summarizing Brass and Krackhardt and their description of leadership under strong and weak tie constellations. The simple examples do a good job laying out career-stage and other important considerations. This sort of analysis is vital part of work engagement we do in working with state agency and school district program staff and administrators. Without understanding leaders' network strategies (often unarticulated) it would be difficult to intervene successfully.
