Speaker and Presenter Information

I have been a member of LinkedIn since February 11, 2004, long before most people knew it existed. I was not very active for my first couple years, but when I saw the potential for developing my network, and for staying in touch with that network, I quickly learned how to leverage some of the power. As LinkedIn continues to change, I continue to learn. In November, 2009, my profile was voted among the top 7 on LinkedIn (#3, there were about 45 million members at the time). I have given several speeches around the country on using LinkedIn over the past three years and written several articles on the topic. If you are not getting enough traction through LinkedIn, you should attend this session. This is a workshop so there will be a limited number of seats - and each attendee will get some individual attention. Simply being on LinkedIn gets you nowhere. Learning to use it well is what counts.
