As you stockpile relationship capital it’s important that you don’t paint contacts into over-defined corners. Rarely are we only one “thing.” Most everyone has outside interests and long job histories, many of which extend into different industries. Take, for one timely example, baseball owners. With baseball season upon us, we dove into the networks of these (in many cases moonlighting) sportsmen; their breadth of reach was impressive. A peek at their board positions and charitable interests shows that not one of them is just a “baseball guy.”

Methodology
Relsci has profiled more than three million influential decision makers and the organizations with which they are involved. The platform assesses the likelihood of a relationship between these influencers through proprietary algorithms that take into account qualitative and quantitative factors such as employment history, title, nonprofit involvement, organization size, industry, etc. We then used these mapped connections to determine the relationships and involvement of these owners.
