• Description:
  The way that many people communicate and the sources they use have changed significantly the past several years. Instead of books, trade magazines, conferences, and courses to share knowledge and ideas many people rely on the internet and particularly social media to be their primary source of information. This paper discusses the use of LinkedIn as an outlet to share information such as critical safety and health controls or leadership to an international audience quickly and effectively. This method has a tremendous advantage in its ability to reach an audience that in many cases would have been out of reach to other communication methods. However social media also has disadvantages in there is less control on the accuracy of the content or the ability to easily retrieve an article when doing a search for research purposes. In addition to the pros and cons, this article will discuss methods to make your LinkedIn article more effective from an author that has written a book and several popular mining related LinkedIn articles on sharing health and safety critical control measures and leadership learned from the massive Manefay landslide at Bingham Canyon.
