Growing Your MedTech Career with LinkedIn

Many people ask me (often with skepticism) if LinkedIn can help them grow their MedTech careers.

The answer is a qualified yes, but perhaps not the way you'd expect.

Georg Digel 's recent post provides a compelling case study of using LinkedIn effectively.

Over the past seven months, Digel has shared his insights on CAPA (Corrective and Preventive Action) in the MedTech sector, progressively building a following by addressing common challenges and solutions, evident in his journey from silence to a thriving network of 2,000 followers.

Here are key strategies to enhance your MedTech career on LinkedIn, inspired by successful MedTech professionals like Georg and the many others we feature every week:

1. Provide Consistent Value

2. Engage with the Community

3. Leverage Personal Stories and Experiences

4. Focus on Thought Leadership

5. Utilize Visuals and Media

6. Monitor and Adapt to Feedback

Pay attention to the feedback and engagement your posts receive. Digel’s approach of adapting content based on follower interests helped him significantly increase his audience. Be flexible and ready to shift your strategies based on what resonates with your network.
