Teddy Burriss & Gillian Whitney chat about: Giving & Getting LinkedIn Recommendations. How important are LinkedIn recommendations? How exactly do they help us? Is it better to give or receive? Is it professional to ask for one from clients and colleagues? These are just some of the questions that many of us wonder about LinkedIn Recommendations. Which is why I asked Teddy Burriss to come on my LinkedIn Live show to chat about this important topic. Teddy Burriss has been teaching how to use LinkedIn as a business tool since 2009. He is generous and supportive with his LinkedIn knowledge and has built a very large network on and off LinkedIn.
