[Podcast] How to make friends on LinkedIn to grow your business (The introvert's edition)
|
Hello Reader, 2024 was the year I decided to learn how to make friends on LinkedIn. I'm an introvert and my idea of a fun night is staying home and catching up on my Netflix series and chilling with my family. Going out to meet strangers in a 'networking' event to grow my business was the last thing I wanted to do. But it's one of those business activities you know you have to do even if you don't feel like doing it. Rather than go out in person, an easier step for me was to start networking online. Having tried FB and IG, I gave up. They just weren't the places for me. And forget X or TikTok. Too rowdy and too much dancing. That left me with LinkedIn, which was just a job search and networking platform to me. But since it was all I had left, I decided to give it a shot and I was pleasantly surprised!

Reader, It's begun. Retrenchment talks. Even though the company I work at has announced 'restructuring' after the acquisition, up to this point, this was only happening at the global and regional level, and the top folks in our country. Last week, the first trickle has landed in country. As someone in HR, conducting these conversations is the part of my job I hate most. Watching people cry. Seeing the shock, anger, and helplessness wash over their faces. Knowing that in an instant, their...
Reader, I have a confession. A decade ago, I got into a 6-figure business debt. I used to believe having more money solves all problems. Whenever there was something I didn't know how to or didn't want to deal with, I'd throw more money on it. When I would realized what I had done, I'd panic and stress.
