The Future Of Less Work Authenticity, Connection, and the Power of Video with LinkedIn’s Catherine Fisher
In a world where work is increasingly digital and asynchronous, how we communicate and connect has never been more important—or more challenging.
In this episode of The Future of Less Work, Nirit Cohen sits down with LinkedIn’s Career Expert, Catherine Fisher, to discuss the growing power of video as a tool for authentic communication, professional learning, and building relationships.
Discover why video resonates more deeply than written content, how leaders and professionals alike can use it to showcase their expertise, and why imperfection and authenticity make all the difference.
Catherine shares practical advice for overcoming the discomfort of starting with video, keeping your content impactful, and embracing new ways to engage your network and foster trust in an evolving workplace.
Whether you’re a senior leader addressing your organization, a professional building your network, or someone looking to stand out in a competitive job market, this episode will help you unlock the potential of video as a critical tool for the future of work.
