LinkedIn: Build a Strong Profile, Post Consistently and Grow Your Network

Make your profile easy to read, post without giving up your evenings and maintain a network that genuinely works for you

  • 0.43 days — 3 h
  • In-person or virtual
  • Foundation
  • Up to 6 participants

A neglected LinkedIn profile works against its owner: a bare job title, no summary, no post for two years and a network built at random from incoming requests. Many professionals know they should be visible there but are reluctant to promote themselves and unsure what to talk about.

Three hours online to rework your profile section by section, select two or three topics you can sustain over time and prepare your first posts. Each participant leaves the session with a revised profile and three posts ready to schedule.

Learning objectives

  • Rework each section of your profile for a reader in a hurry
  • Select two or three topics you can speak about consistently
  • Write a short post suited to reading in the feed
  • Grow and maintain your network through targeted requests and conversations

What makes this programme different

Your profile is edited live during the session
Three posts are drafted and reviewed before being scheduled
The short online format lets you work on your own profile without blocking out a full day
