Kudos to this week's Top 20 LinkedIn ROCKSTARS. I believe if we can all learn from and by supporting others. I track people who I deem "ROCKSTARS" on LinkedIn: they ROCK in engaging with their network and have large followings. NEW THIS WEEK: I've omitted INfluencers from the list, and set a minimum 4,000 follower criteria. These changes help ensure that the spotlight is being shined on those who could use the boost and are heavy users of LinkedIn. MOVING FORWARD I'm focusing on gender balance. My total list contains 90 names: 43 women and 47 men. I won't add any more men into my full list until there is an equal number of women. (side note: could you imagine if organizations and boards followed this same rule?)
