LinkedIn is the Grandfather of social networks. It’s the first place I go to check out new business contacts and prospective candidates. In the last 18 months it has integrated applications such as blogs, Huddle and SlideShare, making it a one-stop address book, personal profile and online portfolio.
As a follow-up to my CIPR Summer Social session on Getting Ahead in Social in August I’m running a follow-up on LinkedIn this week. The session will cover tips on building a profile and personal portfolio. We’ll look at how to build a network, linking with other social networks and explore how to get the most from groups.
The session kicks-off at 5pm at the CIPR, Russell Square. Its £10 on the door to cover cost the cost of a couple of beers. Please sign-up here, on LinkedIn of course, if you’re planning on coming along.
