10 LINKEDIN ARTICLES NOT TO MISS FROM JUNE 2022

From July 2019 onwards, I had decided to highlight the most interesting and inspiring articles that I found on LinkedIn each month in order to give them higher visibility. I took this decision due to findings on the current algorithm on LinkedIn, which is relevant with regard to highlighting the best posts but relatively weak while highlighting the best articles. I find these to be the result of a much more thorough approach, thereby creating a greater editorial added value. Many of the articles from June 2022 reflect the growing urgency to deal with the climate crisis, as our selected authors analyse its impact in various fields.
