What makes you most optimistic about the future of your industry? by Yonason Goldson

I spend a lot of time on LinkedIn. Unlike Facebook and Twitter, the exchanges there often display considerable depth, thoughtful engagement, civil discourse, and a genuine sense of community. Those interactions leave me hopeful that the future of business is one characterized by curiosity, collaboration, and intellectual integrity, that more and more professionals want to share compelling ideas and form substantive relationships. As Jim Rohn said, you are the average of the people you spend the most time with. Seek out communities that pull you up, and you will become a force to pull others up as well.
