The nodes represent the different entities that I am related to in my social networks. The &#8220;Me&#8221; node represent myself positioned within the structure of my social network. The other entities, which I am related to namely are: Personal friends, Academic community (MALAT), Higher learning institutions, Work organization, Business partners, Family members, Charity organizations and religious institutions<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nodes that are related to me, some of them are also related to each other. My business partners some of them are related to me as my workmates. My family member is related to me as a business partner. My personal friends connect with me through the same religious institution. My schoolmates are also my friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now if you analyze the network map wholistically with all the nodes and relations between them in terms of centrality, you will find that the &#8220;Me&#8221; node provides for all the three types of centralities namely Degree, Betweenness and closeness centrality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Degree centrality: Is used to identify the most connected node in the network. Betweenness centrality identifies the &#8220;brokers&#8221; or gate keeper&#8221; in the network these nodes have a unique position where they connect different parts of the network, facilitating or controlling the flow of information. Closeness centrality measures how quickly a node can reach every other node in the network via the shortest paths. In a coalition, these nodes can disseminate information or exert influence quickly due to their close proximity to all other nodes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Visual Network Mapping has been prepared using: https:\/\/app.diagrams.net\/ DESCRIPTION ON THE VISUAL NETWORK MAP.
