Editorial note: there will be no Amplify Briefing newsletter next week as I’ll be in NYC for LinkedIn’s Talent Connect Summit. If you’re attending, be sure to find me and say hello! I’ll be leading workshops on Tuesday and Wednesday. If you can’t be there live, LinkedIn has you covered with their free livestream. Learn more and register for the Americas, APAC, or EMEA show at  https://lnkd.in/gCtUpHbU.
