Using Linkedin Properly – Chelmsford Womens Referral Network

Tomorrow I’m giving a talk to the Chelmsford Women’s Referral Network, a group of professional women organised by Judy Day, a solicitor at Prettys, Kirsten Woodgate, previously of Lloyds Banking Group now KLW Business Evolution and, Joanna Hamblin director at Bird Luckin Chartered Accountants. The group aims to give professional women working in Chelmsford the opportunity to network with each other, and to make referrals easier between them. Linkedin is an obvious tool for this group to use, and they have set up a CWRN Linkedin Group.

Linkedin is however, a rather new tool for many in the group, and my presentation aims to get users who may not be using it proactively and with a strategy to think about that strategy and make some first steps towards making Linkedin work for them. You can see the slides below, or click through to view them on Slideshare where notes are also available. I’d be interested to know what you think of them.
