Story Before Strategy: The LinkedIn Edge

Story Before Strategy: The LinkedIn Edge

Author: Dorien Morin-van Dam June 11, 2026 Duration: 30:31

Lotsa people treat LinkedIn like a billboard. They pick a look, post some updates, hope the right people notice.

And when it doesn't work, the instinct is to fix the tactics. Better headlines. More hashtags. A new posting schedule.

But tactics built on a story you haven't found yet? They won't save you.

This week's Strategy Talks guest has been helping entrepreneurs and consultants do the harder, more important work first: uncovering the story that makes everything else on LinkedIn actually land. Once you have that, the strategy almost writes itself.

Anneke van der Voort helps entrepreneurs, advisors, and teams build a professional presence on LinkedIn — visible in a way that feels authentic and attracts the right clients. With a background in marketing, communications, and PR across both business and higher education, she has been working with LinkedIn since 2005. In 2013 she founded PRminded, and since then has helped countless professionals find their story and translate it into a profile and content strategy that actually works.

Her experience spans 20 years in B2B marketing, 10 years as a lecturer, and time living and working in Singapore and London — all of which shaped her international perspective and no-nonsense approach. Clients often say she brings calm and clarity to a platform that can feel overwhelming — and that working with her goes beyond visibility to real positioning and purposeful connection.

'Strategy Talks: Content Strategy for Small Teams', Season 5, is where content marketing meets real business results. Hosted by hands-on content strategist Dorien Morin-van Dam, each episode delivers a focused conversation with a guest expert who shares a specific, repeatable play. You'll leave with a clear problem definition and a set of steps you can take this week.

No fluff. No theory. Just strategy you can use.

New episodes each week! We stream live on LinkedIn, YouTube and Facebook.


Dorien Morin-van Dam knows what it's like to build a content engine without a massive budget or staff. In Strategy Talks: Content Strategy for Small Teams, she brings that practical, hands-on perspective to every conversation. This isn't about abstract theory; it's a direct line to operators who are in the trenches, sharing the specific, repeatable plays they use to turn thoughtful content into genuine business pipeline. Designed for founders, small teams, agencies, and solo consultants, each half-hour episode is tightly focused. You'll find discussions rooted in one of three critical areas: the fundamentals of content strategy and planning, the nuts and bolts of distribution and SEO, or the practical application of AI for content operations. The goal is always clarity-first, by defining a common problem many face, and then by unpacking a tangible solution. Listening to this podcast feels like having a seasoned strategist in your corner, cutting through the noise to deliver actionable insights you can apply almost immediately. If you're responsible for content but short on resources, these conversations provide the structured thinking and tactical advice to make your efforts more effective and less chaotic.
