Techorama - Rise of the Tech Influencer

Keeping your head down and working hard is not enough anymore. If you want to move onwards and upwards in this world you have to make sure the world knows your name. This can be hard when all you care about is the code and you don't want to look like you are self-promoting.

As Microsoft's #1 Social Seller on LinkedIn - I have more influence and engagement across that platform than Mark Russinovich. I will share the small steps you can take each day to increase your reach, establish credibility from a distance, influence by volume, and access all areas - whilst keeping your focus where it counts.
