Linkedin

A man's Threads post about what he deems to be career-obsessed people has been applauded by viewers on the platform. The U.S.-based man, who goes by @austinjackson1995 on the Meta-owned app, had told viewers online: "People who post on LinkedIn and love their corporate career terrify me." To his surprise, the post, shared on January 22, quickly went viral and has since been liked by over 13,000 users, with hundreds of viewers taking to the comment section to voice their agreement. "In our modern age of social media, most other platforms encourage authentic human connection, spaces where people bond over shared interests, creative projects, and genuine thoughts. LinkedIn, by contrast, is optimized exclusively for professional achievement and personal branding," the post's creator told Newsweek. "It rewards productivity tips and career milestones while discouraging the kind of authentic self-expression that actually builds meaningful relationships, and even opportunities. "People naturally connect through shared passions and interests, not through corporate accomplishments. What LinkedIn calls ‘networking’ often feels less like genuine community building and more like workplace surveillance extended into our digital lives." It seems that many people in the comment section of the man's post agree with the sentiment. "I would genuinely be

Presented by Nokia By GABRIEL GAVIN GOOD MORNING and welcome to this Tuesday edition of Brussels Playbook. I’m Gabriel Gavin. It’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day, commemorating the 6 million Jews and millions of others who died as a result of Nazi persecution during World War II. More on how Brussels is marking the date below. DRIVING THE DAY ART OF THE DEAL: The future of a mammoth trade deal with Washington is up in the air after the European Parliament’s top trade lawmakers failed to agree on ratifying the EU-U.S. pact. The clock is ticking for MEPs to sign off on the agreement, even amid the bloc’s fraying relationship with Washington. If lawmakers allow their lingering resentment over Donald Trump’s NATO-testing play for Greenland to get in the way of the deal, the EU won’t be able to drop its tariffs to 0 percent for American goods, as agreed with the U.S. president, in exchange for 15 percent on EU goods. That could set the stage for more transatlantic conflict and spark retaliation from Trump. **A message from Nokia: 78% of European business leaders fear the region may not deliver the connectivity AI needs. Without urgent investment in the digital backbone, Europe risks

LinkedIn has become a routine way to learn about a new business contact and share news and insights. But your LinkedIn profile doesn’t need to be routine. getty LinkedIn has become a routine way to learn about a new business contact and share news and insights. But your LinkedIn profile doesn’t need to be routine. Colleagues, potential clients and employers head to LinkedIn to learn about who you are. They may look for facts about where you’ve worked and what skills you have, but what they really want to know is how do you show up. Who are you? What will it be like to work with you? So instead of listing your key skills or qualities in cliched language such as "strategic thinker” or “dedicated to my clients,” show these in a memorable and human-centered way. The following 3 guidelines for writing your LinkedIn’s About section will help you get there. 1. Start Your LinkedIn Profile With An Intriguing Beginning You want a profile people will remember. So choose a story or turn of phrase that will make people ask questions. Sharing personally has efficacy on LinkedIn, but you want to do it strategically so it retains its power.

Most lawyers know they should be on LinkedIn. For professional services, LinkedIn is the best platform to establish yourself as a thought leader and attract potential clients. Image source: rawpixel.com from Freepik Then why aren’t you seeing tangible business opportunities as a result? One of the main reasons is that LinkedIn has changed, quietly but significantly. Its new algorithm no longer rewards visibility for visibility’s sake. Instead, it evaluates credibility, consistency, and alignment between who you say you are and what you post about. LinkedIn’s 360Brew 360Brew is a large language model that functions as a sophisticated algorithm. It has completely changed how your content is assessed. The most important change is that 360Brew compares your profile with what you’re posting. If that doesn’t match up, it doesn’t get distributed. This is an exciting development. Because you can use it to your benefit. Update your profile page immediately Your profile is not a CV. It’s a marketing tool. Start with your headline (that’s the bit under your name). It’s not meant for your job title; it should be a description of what you do. A good headline tells profile viewers something about you at first glance. And every time you

This week’s Club Sportico  essay focuses on the hottest social media website for pro athletes: LinkedIn. College and pro stars are increasingly using the site to earnestly update their networks of contacts on accomplishments on and off the field of play. LinkedIn says the number of pro athletes on the platform has grown 31% since 2021. Denver Nuggets forward Spencer Jones is one of the most active. A Stanford grad and former G Leaguer, Jones posts at least twice a week, recapping the team’s performance and sharing learnings from the various networking visits he schedules in between games. It turns out that LinkedIn is only the public tip of Jones’s networking spear. Here are a couple excerpts of the essay ✍️: He keeps a separate database of his connections, and when the team travels, the 24-year-old often finds time to meet with local founders or investors. In Washington this week, he took an intro chat with defense tech company Shield AI before handling his own defense-first duties in a 107-97 win over the Wizards on Thursday. “Typically the travel day … I kind of have that whole afternoon to go see a company,” Jones said. In Boston, he stopped by the

Former Vikings quarterback and draft bust Kellen Mond, who most recently played in the United Football League, is now an artist and photographer who also posts influencer content on LinkedIn. Mond's most recent post talks about his rookie year with the Vikings in 2021, specifically through the lens of the disconnect between Mike Zimmer and Rick Spielman in their final year together before both were fired. Much of the information is stuff that's been made public in the past, but it's interesting nonetheless. Mond's post starts like this: "When I was drafted by the Minnesota Vikings, my head coach walked out of the draft room. We never spoke. Not once." Zimmer walking out when Spielman took Mond in the third round of the '21 draft is something the former eight-year Vikings head coach revealed in an August 2024 interview with the Star Tribune. Mond saying the two never had a single conversation that year is remarkable. An NFL head coach and a rookie QB not talking for an entire season is hard to fathom. Mond's post then talks about how the Zimmer-Spielman relationship began to sour as far back as 2018, when the Vikings signed Kirk Cousins in free agency.
