What you'll learn

The most common objections to posting on LinkedIn

Learn the fears & blockers that keep talented people invisible (and limit their career and salary growth)

The benefits of posting on LinkedIn (including real stories)

Plus what it took to overcome our psychological barriers of being visible online.

What works, what doesn't, and everything in between

Along with how we balance building a personal brand on top of everything else in life.

Why this topic matters

A strong LinkedIn presence could be the most valuable career asset you can invest in right now. Because being great at your job means nothing if the only people who know are in your company's Slack channel. But if you can't overcome the mental barrier of being seen online, you'll never unlock that asset class. Join us to hear how we broke through it, and real stories about the opportunities we've gotten from posting on LinkedIn.

Mo Akif

I run Guild95, a private community of tech workers building a LinkedIn presence

I built my LinkedIn presence as career insurance, then got laid off and had 3 inbound offers from VC-backed startups before sending a single application. Now at Guild95, I help tech workers & execs do the same thing so they can attract more job interviews (at places like Lovable & Notion), more industry friends, and higher-paying roles.

Nisha Garg

Director of Strategy & Operations (LinkedIn, Salesforce)

At LinkedIn and Salesforce, I built the GTM strategies and operating cadences for $B+ global businesses across seat-based and consumption business models. Before that, I was a teacher - I have yet to take on a more challenging role. I help women grow their careers and earn what they deserve, even if they didn't follow a linear career path.

Katherine Rettura

Product Marketing Manager by day & Personal Brand Builder by night

The first few times I hit publish, my hands were shaking. I did it anyway, because I was tired of watching people file down their own edges to fit into a character limit. I wanted to read more human stories on LinkedIn, so I decided to start sharing my own. Because personal branding should be...personal. In two months my following went from 800 to over 2,000, my brand design side hustle grew, and I got promoted to a Lead PMM role in my day job.

Unsa Willis

Product Leader in healthcare, mother, and speaker helping others lead in tech

In my 8+ years, I’ve worked on 0→1 products, supported multi-million dollar hospital device contracts, and more. But I am also a mother, and that part of me does not disappear when I log on or off for the day. My mission is to help more people see themselves leading in tech. On LinkedIn, I share my thoughts on healthcare, product leadership, motherhood, and advocacy.
