Description
Every time you speak with someone new, a potential employer, client, recruiter or networking contact, there is an excellent chance that they are looking at your LinkedIn profile.
Posting a bad LinkedIn profile can cause a job opportunity or new potential client to vanish into thin air.
Creating a strong LinkedIn profile is the single, easiest action you can take to present yourself professionally to the world.
Take this course and in the next hour, you will learn everything you need to know to create a strong LinkedIn profile. You will also receive some basic tools to develop your professional network and grow your career.
This information would take hours to gather from various sources, and it would cost hundreds of dollars to have someone create your profile. I made this course FREE so that you can get started quickly and take advantage of 20+ years of executive recruiting knowledge to find your next position.

Instructor
I’ve spent 30 years in executive search, helping top professionals land high-stakes roles.
Along the way, I’ve taught at the university level, coached public audiences, and built positioning tools used by real recruiters.
I'm educated in AI for Business Innovation (Imperial College London) and developed a proprietary AI resume tool used in active search work.
I teach serious professionals how to use AI strategically — to stand out, move faster, and take control of their careers.
