Some tips from Camilla on improving how you use LinkedIn:
Focus on your purpose
- Use LinkedIn as a platform for sharing your purpose
- Many corporate partnerships come from networks with your staff and volunteer body.
- All great and inspiring leaders all think act and communicate – the golden circle – Why? How? What?
- Why do you get out of bed in the morning and why should anyone care?
- Look at your social selling index- this will allow you to see who good you are at making the right connections

What content works?
