After listening to Mo Amir’s podcast, I think he is a person who uses Internet resources wisely. He always keeps his mind true to himself. He is independent in his thinking and is not overly influenced by the audiences. This is his personal characteristic, and the second is that he also builds connections with his peers and promotes his podcasts on the platform. He was very prescient, running a PLN is not easy, and how to create a successful PLN takes a lot of effort.
As a young person, I can feel directly how PLN helps me to develop quickly. The pictures and videos I take casually and put on the network, together with a few popular tags, and it can attract tens of thousands of people to browse. Even if it is not easy to get likes and comments, at least it gets seen. As a result, your work will make an impression on others, and frequent presence will help people deepen their impact. When your PLN gets noticed, your career opportunity will come. A good PLN can generate a lot of business value, especially if you are running something that you are interested in and want to keep growing. In addition to familiar social media, LinkedIn is also a great career development PLN for most people. Especially in the above can fully display their resume, be seen by more peers, and many companies or teams can dig talent.
I think PLN is definitely a useful tool and a good platform for future work selection and development of my interest areas. I can ask questions or offer help to others, and show my skills. But the most important thing is to keep it real as Mo Amir try to tell us, this is a must for PLN. If their PLN output false content, so soon will be found by others, not conducive to their credit establishment. Considering the epidemic situation, and I have great ideas about developing my career in PLN, I love using the Internet to show my value, which is relatively safe and stable. So I think this is a good choice for my career.

Thank you for your compliments!
Hi JOERICA,
I watched the video and I was glad to learn how Mo Amir was able to build an audience for his podcast. I learned that networking using PLN is key to building an audience for the podcast. Besides, Amir admitted that he uses the Podcast, not as a career, but as part of his passion to bring knowledge to the people. At the beginning, he discussed that he was not a Twitter user, but he later came to realize how important Twitter is in creating traffic for his Podcasts as well as enabling him to connect with influencers and peers. I also think a PLN is can help me to build my professional career as well as connect with talented, experienced, and skillful influencers. Looking forward to connect to your PLN!
