LinkedIn series with Luan Wise (1): Optimising your personal profile on LinkedIn
BCI Workshop
These sessions are designed to offer practical insights and actions for you to increase your confidence and use of LinkedIn. Attendees will receive a copy of the training materials, and a recording will be available for 3 months after each session. You are welcome to pick one session, or attend all three – we guarantee there’s something for everyone, whether you are running your own business, or working within a larger organisation.
The power of LinkedIn lies in the use of personal profiles to showcase your expertise and personal brand.
To be effective, this means a personal profile need to be complete (we call this ‘All Star’)… and they rarely are! If you set up your LinkedIn profile by ‘cutting and pasting’ from your CV, and haven’t updated it in a while, you could be missing out on opportunities.
Attend this session to learn what you need to include on your profile and how to get discovered on LinkedIn.
Top tips in this session include understanding the different account types on LinkedIn, knowing what information you are sharing and with whom, plus an overview of all the requirements for an ‘All Star’ LinkedIn profile.
