I started with LinkedIn only connecting with people that I had met personally. Then potentially expanding to people I had conversation.

I found that I was just getting a lot of the same posts and it was a lot of groupthink.

Then I started connecting with people I hadn't met. It's significantly expanded the conversations and perspectives I'm getting.

Expanding the reach of my posts/views and the value of the network I bring.

This has helped in being seen by many as an expert. Also the value of the posts. I've had multiple clients reach out to engage in work that I had never met in person.

For me connecting and conversing with people in the same industry brings a lot of value to myself and the industry as a whole.

Connecting people across the globe into one feed has become the new idea of LinkedIn for me.
