Many professionals have valuable expertise, strong perspectives, innovative ideas, and years of experience, but very little of that knowledge exists publicly.

This session shows participants how intentional publishing can help make professional expertise easier to discover and evaluate. The goal is not to turn everyone into a professional writer. The goal is to help professionals become findable for what they know.

In this webinar, we will:
▫️Understand how publishing can strengthen professional visibility and credibility.
▫️Identify practical publishing formats, from LinkedIn posts to op-eds and industry features.
▫️Turn professional experience into useful article ideas.
▫️Use LinkedIn strategically to extend the reach of original ideas.
▫️Create a realistic 30-day publishing and visibility plan

Moderated by Tamra Simpson ‘11, UC Riverside Black Alumni Chapter.
