Summary

Introduction

In May 2008, Time Magazine published a list entitled the 'Time 100', that is, a list of 100 of the most influential people in the world. In his editorial, the managing editor, Richard Stengel, categorically states that while the Time 100 is not a list of the most powerful or the most talented – it is a thoughtful and sprightly survey of the most influential individuals in the world. The following discussion highlights three of the Time 100's influential personalities, three individuals that on the surface characterize the behaviour and nature of the knowledge citizen archetype. The discussion offers the knowledge citizen insight into behaviour that often contributes to our effectiveness both as influencers as well as recipients of influential behaviour
