Linkedln or ProjectManagement.com?

Dear Alexandre
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

Do you consider that, participating in ProjectManagement.com, we only built a reputation and a network in the USA and Canada?

LinkedIn is more interesting to me in general, but that's because I get a wide variety of topics from my network.

For PM specific content, I like projectmanagement.com.

Hello Luis: I spend more time here because I am not actively seeking a job change, and I gain so many things from this community on a daily basis.

Dear Luis,

I only can consider facts.
1 - All that is new, happens in EUA and Canada before happening else where.
2 - The major events occur frequently in EUA, and that some events every now and then in the rest of the world.
3 - The first persons to have access to new certifications and become instructors are from EUA and Canada , everyone's know that the first ones are always in advantage.(BCG Matrix)
4 - You can build a world network , but is really effective or is just a bunch of connections.
5 - In the end the center of the world is EUA.
6 - A concrete sample, for example for DA upcoming workshops in the next months:

American continent: ( until April more or less)
Canada - 10 workshops
USA. - 7 workshops
Mexico - 9 workshops
Brazil - 1 workshop

Rest of the world
Italy - 1 workshop
UNITED KINGDOM - 1 workshop
NEW ZEALAND - 1 workshop
Romania - to be annouced
SOUTH AFRICA - to be annouced

America 27 - Rest of world 5, way to unbalanced
Fact : American continent is the center of the world

7 -. Who are the reviewers of PMBOK7 , I could bet that about 70% are from American continent.

Etc..... ( I am not being diplomatic)

Dear Kiron
Thank you for participating in this reflection and for your opinion

You wrote: "Over time, I hope to see it also become an effective platform for 1: 1 and group mentoring"

What prevents this from happening today?

What improvements must be made for this to happen?

Different platforms for different reasons. I spend time on both. More active here, but also somewhat active on LI. I don't see them as comparable platforms, though, certainly, there would be overlap across. I don't find that to be surprising.

Luis -

George Freeman and I have had a couple of conversations with the community engagement folks here to explore options for this - stay tuned!

Kiron

Both platforms are excellent way of connecting to knowledgeable people, gain resourceful information and keep learning. Building networks and promoting or etc etc enquiries in the interim is going to be part of this role or platform.
