Join us on November 19th at 11:00am with Leslie Hughes!

Overview:

Your LinkedIn Summary (also called the About section or your bio) is one of the most important areas of your profile.

After your headline, it's one of the first areas people read. Having a stand out story sets you apart from the competition and helps you to build trust and authority.

Obtain more opportunities and gain more visibility in this interactive and educational workshop where we will discuss:

  • The importance of a LinkedIn bio in personal branding.
  • What makes an effective LinkedIn Summary/bio?
  • The common mistakes you need to avoid.
  • How to write and refine your own LinkedIn story.

In this session you can also receive customized and personalized feedback to ensure you have a top notch profile.
