About Paul Petrone

I'm a huge believer that people are the key to any organisation, so my goal soon became figuring out what type of people to bet big on, and which ones not to.


Through my articles, I've reached more than five million people with my own thoughts on the subject, and have garnered priceless wisdom from their collective perspectives.


I'm thrilled now to work for LinkedIn, a company that shares the value I hold most dear: people matter.
