LinkedIn's 2026 algorithm rewards credibility, dwell time, and authentic engagement — not volume. Adrienne Barker's live workshops teach your team exactly what changed and how to use it.
Customized for your organization's goals, industry, and audience. Virtual or in-person. Minimum 10 participants.
Most LinkedIn training is outdated. The platform has fundamentally shifted how it distributes content and ranks profiles. Here's what your team needs to understand:
LinkedIn measures how long people actually read your content — not just likes and comments. Short, shallow posts are penalized. Substantive content wins.
Profile completeness, consistent posting history, and meaningful engagement now carry more algorithmic weight than connection count or follower volume.
LinkedIn's AI flags spammy connection requests and generic messages. Teams using outdated outreach tactics are seeing declining acceptance rates and account restrictions.
The platform now distinguishes between promotional content and genuine expertise. Professionals who share real insights — not just company news — are being elevated.
Third-party automation tools are under stricter scrutiny. Teams need to know which tools are safe, how to use them responsibly, and what boundaries to maintain.
Company pages have declining organic reach. The new strategy is employee advocacy — but only when employees know how to show up with credibility and consistency.
Two workshop formats, both customizable to your organization's goals, industry, and audience. Virtual or in-person delivery available.
A strategic workshop on how LinkedIn works in 2026 — the new algorithm, the Four Foundations framework, and ethical client acquisition strategies. Participants leave with a clear action plan.
A transformative workshop integrating LinkedIn strategy with modern professional etiquette and personal growth principles. Teaches professionals to regulate behavior, build authentic relationships, and create sustainable momentum.
