Unleash the Power of LinkedIn
Some people still think of LinkedIn as a place to go only if you are looking for a job, but it is so much more than that. Even people who are active may not realize the power it holds to extend your networking, find and engage in communities, and build your professional brand. This session makes you think in a different way to begin using the real estate that LinkedIn provides to grow your brand, to understand what behavior works and doesn’t work, and to give you the confidence to become more active there.
