SPEAKER:
Nancy Laine
LinkedIn strategist, speaker, and Co-founder of Project Transition USA.
Since 2008, Nancy has mastered the art of strategic relationship building, but her career found its true purpose in 2012 following a keynote she gave at a South Tampa Chamber luncheon titled “Using LinkedIn to Change the World.” That moment inspired her mission to help transitioning servicemembers connect with career opportunities and civilian success. Through workshops, mentorship, and a LinkedIn community of more than 15,000 members, Nancy has supported thousands of veterans in building meaningful careers with leading organizations across the country.
