111. The Mobile Dilemma

111. The Mobile Dilemma

Welcome to episode 111, more of the

mobile dilemma later but I want to start with an ongoing issue that

everyone seems to be talking about;

It’s NOT

Facebook!



LinkedIn is clearly different to

Facebook in that it is a business & professional network but

it’s not different in that it is a network of people and it’s

social!

Rather than complain about

inappropriate posts wouldn’t it be better to pay more attention to

those connections who are posting more interesting content and

building stronger relationships with them?

I saw a comment this week which I

thought hit the nail on the head;



How about you focus on what you

do, what value you bring, who you help, who you identify, contact

in an authentic not all-about-you-and-what-you-want way, meet in

person, build rapport, work out how you might help each

other.

The key is to understand, truly

understand what you want out of being on LinkedIn (& out of

Business/Professional networking in general) and then... realize

it's all about people, other people. Get good at researching using

LinkedIn and 'what's in my feed' will be less of concern to you

because that won't be where you find the value. The value will be

in what YOU do.


Well said!



Interesting stuff I saw this

week





I also came across this legend of

business on LinkedIn this week!


LinkedIn

changes



Some people are seeing the number of

followers on profiles rather than connections, this might be an

experiment, I don’t have it yet but it could just be in the early

stages of being rolled out.


We can now ‘like’ comments in status

updates



It is now possible to remove

yourself from a group conversation in Messages
