Action

We have two options upon carrying out these ideas:

(A) individually and

(B) in teams.

If individually, the professional will work as if he is the CNO and would assume all the too Business Network Management positions. The biggest benefit would be have the general vision of the whole network to the detriment of making a big individual effort and without the possibility of training that the team will bring him.

As regards teams, to same would be formed by professionals that are working for the same company at present. The ideal team will be about five persons chosen by the CNO and acting as Agents of the Network that will do the management of the main business network.
