The goal is to reassure listeners that they are not alone and to address a variety of issues people face with LinkedIn, ranging from technical challenges to feeling out of place on the platform. I'll review each concern one by one and provide advice and tips. Concerns include the time needed to learn LinkedIn, the perception that LinkedIn is too corporate, feeling behind on using the platform, embarrassment over profiles, and more. Additionally, I'll share information about my free live webinars and other resources to help you make the most of LinkedIn.
