Trying to make ... geographic/domain scope a thing here is a huge problem. At some point, you either spend your precious seconds on your brand ( which makes your scope larger ) or you spend it on solving problems. Serious problems are proprietary, secret or ( even worse ) security-clearance secret. It smacks of "social media thinking". I do not think the mores and practices of social media apply to much beyond social media. Social media looks like narcissism to me. I am pretty much a full-fledged multiplier but I rather doubt that makes me the top 2%. It just means that I stayed focused on technology ( over a span of 30 years ) while my contemporaries didn't. They chose the "up and out" path. At least one is trying to get back in. I can turn "lower performers" into higher performers by talking to them. I've done it. That's just me being a human who likes people and needs their stuff to work too. And I've certainly had other engineers help me out in that way. You get stuck; talking helps your brain to find solutions. Why do we need this method anyway? Peoples is what they is. Why do we stack people into boxes like this?
