In case you missed it, there’s a lot you can do on LinkedIn. (So much, in fact, that I’ve written dozens of articles to equip you with the tools and tricks you need to succeed on the platform.) From building your network to showcasing your story and growing your business, LinkedIn is...
The camaraderie of a team huddle, the bond of training together, the joy of a championship win—there’s something about the energy of team sports that has always been so exciting to me. While my competitive soccer days are behind me, I’m still the first to sign up for a challenge...
Who says your career has to fit into a nice, neat little box? Many of my clients are unique, successful, and interesting precisely because they didn’t follow the same linear path as everyone else. Maybe they took a year sabbatical to travel the world, served a cause or church on mission, or...
I’ve been reflecting lately on the goals I’ve accomplished in the past several years. Perhaps you can relate. Sometimes, when you’re right in the thick of a new challenge, it’s helpful to remember how you accomplished the last goal. What was it that got you through the...
Most of the clients I serve would only call themselves students in the sense that they’re lifelong learners. Still, I receive a surprising number of questions related to LinkedIn for students. In the spirit of helping my people help their people, I’ve decided to dedicate a full...

There’s no question that you’ve faced a change of some kind in the past few years. Some people experienced big changes—moving from the office to the home office, managing gaps in childcare, recovering from an illness, or grieving the loss of a loved one. For others, change...
How much time would you save if you only reached out to people you knew would say “yes” to the job, product, or service you’re selling? Unfortunately, that’s not exactly how the prospecting process works. As we both know, you’re bound to have lots of prospects at...
