Calif. (November 7, 2012) -- LinkedIn continues to be the first

executives, and colleagues, how to use LinkedIn search engines and
filters, and other executive sourcing techniques that will reveal how

meetings armed with superior knowledge.
In

-
Find companies that are hiring in your city, and identify who they
want to hire;
-
Get instant updates on promotions, terminations and hires from your

-
Turn your profile from "average executive" to "forward
thinking rock star";
-
Be found by those looking to hire;
-
Quickly research someone you're scheduled to meet; and
-
Stand out, both in your profile, and online.
"LinkedIn
continues to reign as the primary resource for professional
networking, yet few senior executives really understand how to really
use LinkedIn effectively to meet their own needs," said

webinars. "In this master class, those with a basic
understanding of LinkedIn will be able to add to their expertise. The
