I completely agree with @Andrew_Gibson on LinkedIn polls. If you’re on LinkedIn, take the 1 second it takes to vote, no redirection, no additional questions. I struggle with my LI network for votes, even on trivial topics. Yes, we are trying to gain insight, opinions, developmental direction, etc., but the main goal of polls are to create a catalyst for participation and discussion!

[Andrew_Gibson]
