Too many LinkedIn members use the platform to display their personal beliefs on topics such as the state of the world, politics, supreme court decisions, etc. I don't know about you, but I get my fill of that when I access multiple online
news sources. I am on LInkedIn to build a network of my audience and share my expertise to influence their success by sharing on topics pertinent to STRATEGIC CAREER NETWORKING & PRESENTING LEADERSHIP VALUE.
