There's a good explanation of how a recursive CTE should do what you want it to do [here][1] [1]:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/library/ms186243(v=sql.105).aspx I suppose the corollary questions will be: How many levels deep will the chain of members and introducers go? How many members all told, do you need your system to be able to accommodate. If you have a million members and there are 50 levels of introduction, the above solution might not be an appropriate option from a performance point of view.
