The Rise & Fall of Influence…And Influencers
"Influence" is the most powerful and misunderstood force in society today. It's often confused with power, fame, talent and even force. But real influence is far more graceful and subversive. Real influence is born out of conquest but wielded with grace. And real influencers have more in common with pioneers who settled the West, than Kanye West. But the recent rise of "influencers" is an insurgent attempt to rip influence from the source of its power.
