With over 20 years training & coaching experience, Belinda’s knowledge sharing is hallmarked by interactive, relevant and results-driven sessions with ample opportunity to gain knowledge through ‘doing’ and participating rather than just listening.

“Belinda not only knows the detailed workings of LinkedIn, but can transfer this knowledge in an extremely personable, hands-on way. It was really beneficial to be able to put some of her ideas into action during the “live” session.” 

 

“I attended a LinkedIn session run by Belinda and was immediately impressed by her depth of knowledge on the subject. Her recommendations on improving my LinkedIn profile have been enormously beneficial to me. I would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to increase their visibility on LinkedIn and wanting to make genuine connections that are useful to them and their business.”

 

“Our small, focused session was characterised by excellent handouts, a supportive atmosphere among the other participants, and personalised recommendations from Belinda, who has a great intuitive sense about LinkedIn and what works there.”
