We rarely think of networking as a science. However there’s plenty of research that suggests how human behavior and psychology influence who and how we connect with people. Using network theory principles, business development and marketing professionals can strategically build their networks, promote their corporate brand, and influence decision makers online and offline. In this training attendees will learn social network theory and its application to LinkedIn’s algorithm. We will look at the platform’s additional features and capabilities, and review strategies and scripts to help attendees better utilize their professional networks and build a platform for thought leadership. If you have a hunch that you, your team members and company could be using LinkedIn more effectively - this program is for you.

Learning Objectives:

• How to map your existing network
• Identify and target knowledge gaps in the Go/No-Go Process
• How network diversity improves information quality
• Strategies to transform online connections into real world relationships
