This is the Relational Map for the combined network of five Person nodes: John Doerr, John Hennessy, Michael Moritz, Ram Shriram, & Sukhinder Singh Cassidy. The result is an interesting network.

The five Target Nodes can be identified as the enlarged nodes. Google, and to a lesser extent Zazzle, are central in this network, but there are other interesting clusters that have formed around the periphery involving Friendster, eBay, PayPal, Good Technology, and other companies. These four individuals have a very interesting combined network that connects to many of what are considered the most respected, powerful, and profitable companies in Silicon Valley. It is also interesting to see what lesser known companies are well connected in this same network. What does that say about the resources and influence available to that company? Does that increase its chances at success?
