The first is that the potential for success exists within each of us
The second is that relationships are the fundamental key to success
This is what a typical desk looked like in the 1980”s. No here is what I say happenign over time
For our free members, there are 3 main ways that we deliver value for them: We help them (1) connect to their professional world (e.g. network updates, messaging, profile); (2) stay informed through professional news and knowledge (e.g. Pulse, publishing platform, Lynda.com); (3) get hired and build their careers (e.g. passive recruiting, active job seekers, career planning)
We operationalize these concepts and create a business around these ideas with our vision. It’s our true north. Our dream.
And it’s to create economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce. That’s over 3 billion people in the world.
We connect you to opportunity. And when I say opportunity, I mean opportunity in the broadest sense. It’s not just about getting a job. It’s about all the opportunities that exist to help you grow as a professional and help you be successful in your career.
We’ll talk a little more about how opportunity comes to life for both our members and customers next
If you type ‘opportunity’ into Google, it is interesting to see these two full definitions.
LinkedIn creates an environment that makes anything possible for our membership regarding their dreams and what they’re trying to achieve in their career.
The definition perfectly fits what we are all about
Our mission is our overarching objective; It’s to connect the world’s professionals to make them more productive and successful
We’ve always been 100% focused on professionals, the 780mm professionals, knowledge workers, and students worldwide
32 MIO connections are made every day
We’re the most effective platform for building relationships with the world’s professionals
And with that global reach comes activity and engagement at massive scale
Over 380mm members so you can find the right person or people to focus on
And 2b member updates per week so that you know what people are talking about and how you can add value
And billions of relationships that enable us to reveal the connection paths that you can leverage for warm introductions
So whether you’re sharing or publishing content, connecting with other professionals, editing your profile, commenting, or liking, all of these actions generate all this data that flows through our ecosystem
The symbols represent all the activity on the network, and it’s that data in turn that provides the value we provide to companies
Our dream is to help people more easily navigate this increasingly challenging 21st century global economy by developing the world's first economic graph, i.e. we want to digitally map the global economy and in doing so, create economic opportunity for every one of the 3B people in the global workforce.
We want to create a digital profile for every member of the global workforce
We would like there to be a digital profile for every company in the world, and who you know at those companies up to three degrees to help you get your foot in the door.
We would like to have a digital representation of every job offered by these companies, full-time and part-time for profit and volunteer.
We would also like there to be a digital representation of every skill required to obtain these jobs.
And a presence for every higher educational organization and learning and development tool that would enable the members to obtain those skills.
And lastly, we want to be in a position where we can overlay the professionally relevant knowledge for every one of those individual members, companies and universities to the extent they want to share it. Then we want to step back and allow capital, all forms of capital, intellectual capital, working capital and human capital to flow, to where it can best be leveraged and in doing so, help lift and transform the global economy.
Billions of weekly updates, 1.5M Groups,15M presos on Slideshare, Pulse, Influencers
The only thing standing in the way of our vision being realized is scale, and that will come with time. Over next ten years, the economic graph will be a reality and it will forever change the way talent connects with opportunity (can add examples of closing the skills gap, students determining their path, economists doing research, etc.)

We’re operationalizing our vision through the world’s first economic graph, which is about digitally mapping the global economy
We aim to include all: Members of the global workforce; Companies in the world; Jobs those companies offer; Skills required to obtain those jobs; Schools offering a path to acquire those skills; and Knowledge of every member, company, and university
We like to summarize this in a simple venn diagram that more and more capsulates who we are and who we aspire to work with
