"Thought Leadership"
This community is now 87 people so rather than me trying to share people's individual wins and fail miserably (when I miss somebody), instead I'm going to share a win for myself which is relevant to everybody in this group.
And who knows you may share one of your own? 🤞
On Sunday I was messaged by a lady in America. She had a specific problem (Finance Recruitment) and wanted to talk with me. Initially I thought it was spam but when reviewing her profile it looked real especially when there was a video of her on CNN news.
When I asked her, how she found me she said; 1. it was via a LinkedIn search and 2. I then looked for somebody who I considered as a thought leader in finance recruitment and is able to solve my exact problem.
Now, this links back to everybody here; Visibility | Impact | Awareness.
She may have found me and decided not to message me which is the same for executive recruiters and your profile. Just because you are visible does not mean that you will be contacted.
Therefore in 2026 where social media and LinkedIn enables us to connect, your 'shop window' needs to be attractive for people to stop, consider and reach out to you.
Thanks for reading and have a lovely weekend.
