How to make something of the new LinkedIn limitations.
Good luck!!

Today we announced that we’re rolling out a desktop redesign to all LinkedIn members. In this redesign, you now have one single search box at the top of every LinkedIn page to find People, Jobs, Companies, Groups and Schools. Searching for Posts will also be coming soon.

I'm running Social Recruiting Masterclass with substance through Feb, March & April. Starting in London and for agencies in the first instance, but due to early interest, also up in the northern cities.

It's not a new thing anymore, and we've worked out how it effectively integrates into typical business practices, so these sessions are about making sure it's not 'either/or', but about integrated communications and branding building strategies.

I just wrote on LinkedIn about this, but what a brilliant piece of writing from Doug Kessler. The Search for Meaning in B2B Marketing.

I'm hiring people to work with him at Velocity Partners.

B2B isn't altruistic or glamorous. How can we spend our lives doing it and still feel good about ourselves?
