LinkedIn, with over 950 million users, is the number 1 B2B networking social platform. While there are millions of people leveraging the platform, many struggle to ‘be human’ and utilize this amazing tool to have conversations.
In this 60-minute in-person session we will cover two important, foundational aspects of leveraging LinkedIn to start more conversations:
- You Profile- How do you show up?
- Your Network: Who are you connecting with and why?
We’ll also talk about some lesser known LinkedIn features that can help your networking and conversations.
A light breakfast will be provided to provide an opportunity for some socializing time before the workshop begins at 9:15 am.
