Why LinkedIn and Your Resume Should Tell the Same Story
Consistency does not mean duplication. Each format has a different job within one professional brand.
Start with the purpose
The resume is targeted and selective. LinkedIn is broader, public and conversational. Both should reinforce the same leadership themes.
Build the narrative
Misalignment creates uncertainty: different titles, competing value propositions or unexplained chronology can weaken an otherwise credible profile.
Keep the evidence credible
Use LinkedIn to add voice and context while keeping the resume’s strategic direction intact.
