“LinkedIn is the world's largest cocktail party, and you have to treat it very much like a cocktail party. LinkedIn is a full offensive strategy that you have to get.”
In this Lead with Culture episode, we are joined by Donnie Boivin, the Founder of Success Champions Networking, to talk all things networking.
