Influencer marketing has become big business on TikTok and Instagram, where popular creators can make good money by helping brands promote their stuff. Its product, called Thought Leader ads, launched in a limited capacity last year. LinkedIn introduced Thought Leader ads last year but with limited use. By opening up Thought Leader ads, LinkedIn is letting anyone boost a post as long as the author grants permission. Social media marketer Brendan Gahan is so bullish on the format that he's focusing much of his efforts on helping companies use Thought Leader ads.

Conventional wisdom says that to be successful, you should build a career plan: Map out where you are now, where you want to be and the steps you'll need to take to get there. Godin, a bestselling author and millionaire entrepreneur often dubbed a "marketing guru," says his accomplishments feel fulfilling specifically because he's never followed a predetermined path. His advice: Use "a compass and not a map," he recently told LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky's "The Path" newsletter. "I got 800, 900 rejection letters in a row, and it was more than a year before anyone wanted to publish my next book," Godin said. With a career map, Godin might have pursued entrepreneurship more single-handedly, never authoring that first book on the side and discovering a passion for writing.

In the past six months, more than 270,000 tech jobs globally have been cut, according to Layoffs.fyi, which has been tracking the fallout.

LinkedIn will retain a presence in China to help companies operating there to hire and train employees outside the country, the company spokesperson said. Before LinkedIn's announcement, 5,000 technology jobs had been in eliminated in May alone, according to Layoffs.fyi.

The good news is, future job searches may not always be as bleak as mine have been. to Delta Air Lines are dropping college degree requirements for many roles, focusing instead on “skills-based hiring,” a philosophy that emphasizes people over pedigrees. Consider the ever-persistent education wage gap, which has been widening for decades and by some measures got even worse during the past few years. Can we be so surprised that the media presents an incomplete picture about higher education when so few journalists navigate the working world without a four-year degree? One 2022 survey conducted by Morning Consult found that even though 72 percent of employers said they didn’t believe a college degree was a great indicator of a person’s skills, more than half still hired candidates from degree programs anyway because they saw doing so as a “less risky choice.”
Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella never expected to lead one of the world's largest, most powerful tech companies — he was just excited to work there, period. One of the most important lessons he learned in his decades at Microsoft — and his "best career advice" — is simple: "Don't wait for your next job to do your best work." Throughout his tenure at Microsoft, Nadella had to constantly adapt depending on the teams he worked with and the divisions he managed, all while keeping pace with fast-changing technologies. "You cannot grow if you don't think your growth comes because of what you're doing," he added. If you're feeling stuck at work or struggling to find meaning in your job, Nadella has advice for that, too.
When Uber first approached now-CEO Dara Khosrowshahi about leading the company, he ignored the call. It was 2017, and the rideshare app was going through a "historically difficult time," Khosrowshahi told LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky in a recent interview. He was entering his twelfth year as Expedia's CEO, and still "having a great time," he told Roslansky. He was prepared to call Uber's board of directors and take himself out of the running for CEO — until one conversation with a friend changed his mind. The following morning, Khosrowshahi called the head hunter back — and in August 2017, he was announced as Uber's new CEO, after a unanimous vote from the board.
While some people might argue that the secret to success lies in creating a detailed, linear path to your ultimate career goal, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi says over-planning isn't just ineffective — it can torpedo your chances of building a fulfilling career. "Don't over-plan your career … I see young people make this mistake all the time," Khosrowshahi told LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky in a new interview published Thursday. "I've never been in a hurry in my career, because if you're open, and you really want to hone your craft, it's so much more satisfying [to take your time]." "People talk about financial compounding — there's a career compounding that's magical.

The Great Resignation has dominated the workplace for nearly two years — but employers may soon be able to heave a sigh of relief. The labor market is now "emerging from" the Great Resignation, LinkedIn's CEO Ryan Roslansky told CNBC Make It. The phenomenon — also known as the "Great Reshuffle" — refers to the mass exodus of workers during the pandemic. According to Roslansky, the year-on-year share of global LinkedIn members changing jobs has dropped from a high of 44% in September last year to -2% this year. In November alone, more than 20,000 U.S. tech workers were laid off, as internet giants Twitter, Meta and Salesforce downsized their workforce in the past week.
Employers are more open to new ways of finding and evaluating job candidates, and those that move swiftly in this direction will build more resilient teams. Broader talent poolWhen employers use degrees as a proxy for skills, they miss out on half of the workforce, as Opportunity@Work’s research has shown. LinkedIn data suggests that certain industries – like professional services, finance and tech – are some of the hardest sectors for workers without bachelor’s degrees to break into. It can also spur greater diversity, since 61% of Black workers, 55% of Hispanic workers, 66% of rural workers and 61% of veteran workers have in-demand skills but not bachelor’s degrees. Recognizing the diverse ways skills are acquired and adopting a skills-first approach to talent will bring greater transparency, efficiency and equity to the labor market, making it easier for anyone from anywhere to achieve anything.
Roslansky shares what he's learned the first six months of being CEO and leading the company through a pandemic. It's been six months since I became LinkedIn's chief executive and, as I shared on day one, I never imagined I'd step into this new role during a pandemic. As we near the one-year mark of the pandemic, it's become clear our lives won't likely return to a pre-COVID-19 "normal." The only way you learn to be a CEO is by being a CEO, and there have been countless learnings every day about managing through uncertainty. Provide the resources working parents need to be successful as they're juggling work, childcare, and distance learning all from home.
