Anansi's Web (theory)

Anansi’s Web theory suggests that social networks are interconnected, much like a spider’s web, where information, influence, or resources flow through interconnected nodes (people or groups). It emphasizes that interactions are not isolated; instead, each connection influences others, creating a complex system of relationships. This perspective highlights how local actions can have broader impacts within the network and underscores the importance of understanding these connections for effective communication, influence, or change management within social or organizational systems.
