LinkedIn’s Mission: To connect the world’s professionals to make them more productive and successful.
The World Is Flat… “It has become possible for more people to collaborate and compete in real time, with more people on more different kinds of work from more different corners of the planet, on a more equal footing, than any previous time in the history of the world.” …and faster…and more challenging…
The New World of Work  Every individual is now a business  Decision making is distributed and faster  Companies are becoming more open
Every individual is now a business.
Job tenure is on the decline Global competition is increasing Greater movement between professions and industries Greater access to information People loyal to their skills, not their employer Work used to be a place you would go – now it’s something you do Today’s students will have 10-14 jobs before they turn 38
Every individual is a business Your name & your reputation = your brand Your salary = your revenue Your skills & experience = your advantage Your online profile = your business listing Your network = your R&D, sales & marketing departments
Why should you care?  Today’s decision maker is thinking as much about their “own business” as they are about their employer’s.  How does your product or service help people achieve individual success as well as success for their business?
Decision making is distributed and happening faster.
Decision making: down & out “I can be fast, “I can take my but I may make time, but I may a mistake.” miss out.” “My network can help me make informed decisions quickly and confidently.”

Got Social Media Guidelines? From IBM’s Social Computing Guidelines (http://www.ibm.com/blogs/zz/en/guidelines.html ) Be thoughtful about how you present yourself in online social networks. The lines between public and private, personal and professional are blurred in online social networks. By virtue of identifying yourself as an IBMer within a social network, you are now connected to your colleagues, managers and even IBM's clients. You should ensure that content associated with you is consistent with your work at IBM. If you have joined IBM recently, be sure to update your social profiles to reflect IBM's guidelines.
