Senior Consultant (Captain)

Operations Manager | Assistant S3

IT and Communication Lead | Platoon Leader

As a Former Army Captain I'm passionate about helping individuals and teams unlock their full potential. 

Having worked in the Military, Manufacturing, and Financial Services industries I have continued to search for what truly makes organizations successful. From my experience this goal is enabled by organized and useable data. 

Proper use of data assets does more that just allows you to present and inform at all levels of the organization. It allows you to:

- Tell a story
- Take strategic action
- Focus on wins while mitigating losses 

Most organizations face an enormous problem when it comes to organizing, structuring, and using their data in a meaningful way. 

Nexla is primed to solve this problem by streamlining data process to quickly transform raw data into actionable insights. We do this by automating data workflows to enhance responsiveness to business needs. 

This not only speeds up decision-making, but allows for more frequent iterations of data products. 

If you are finding yourself in situations where you have mass amounts of data, but cannot use it to its fullest potential it might be time to reach out for some help.

You can get in contact with us at nexla.com (link in my profile), or send me a message and I'll be in touch.

Lets find some time to talk today!

Every day on LinkedIn, people judge each other...

Not by skills or results…

But by profile pictures, followers, and fancy titles.

Someone sees a simple photo and thinks,
“Not successful enough.”
 
Someone sees low engagement and assumes,
“They don’t know what they’re doing.”

But the truth?
I’ve met creators with 500 followers doing 6-figure work quietly.
 
And I’ve seen “influencers” with 50k followers struggling to get a single client.

This platform is full of stories that don’t fit the picture.
Because success doesn’t always look like success.
 
Sometimes, it’s silent.
Sometimes, it’s simple.
But it’s always real.

So before you judge someone’s LinkedIn by their looks, read their words, feel their intent, and see their consistency.

That’s where real value lives.

P.S. Have you ever judged someone too fast on LinkedIn and later found out they were actually doing amazing work?

Strength comes from confidence.
 
Not skills.
Not degrees.
Not even experience.

I’ve met people who had every skill in the book but couldn’t take the first step because they didn’t believe in themselves.

And I’ve met others...
Who barely had the “right skills” but they believed.
 
They showed up.
They tried.
And life rewarded them.

That’s the difference confidence makes.

A true leader doesn’t just teach you how to do things.
They make you believe you can.
Before they push you to perform, they remind you that you’re capable.

Confidence builds strength.
Strength builds action.
Action builds growth.

It’s the same on LinkedIn...
You don’t grow here because you have perfect content.
You grow because you believe you can add value, even if your voice shakes.

So next time you hesitate to post...
Remember:
 
You don’t need to be the best.
You just need to believe in yourself first.

Follow me for more stories on LinkedIn growth, confidence, and real leadership that starts from within.

P.S. Who’s one person that made you believe in yourself when you couldn’t?

I saw this video today…
A person was almost at the finish line.
 
He felt he had already won…
So he slowed down… lifted his hands…
Started celebrating.

And in the final second…
Someone ran ahead and took the win.

Just one moment, changed everything.

When I watched this,
 
I didn’t just see a race.
I saw real life.
I saw business.
I saw LinkedIn.

So many people do the same online…

They write a few posts…
Get some likes…
Gain some followers…
And think they have “made it.”

Then one week later…
They stop showing up.
They stop improving.
They stop learning.

And suddenly…
Someone who was behind them moves ahead.

Not because they were better…
But because they stayed consistent.

In personal branding, results don’t come from one good week.
 
They come from discipline, daily.
One post at a time.
One small improvement at a time.

Celebrate, yes.
 
But keep building.
Because the moment you slow down, someone hungrier will take your place.

So next time you get a win…
Be proud.
But don’t stop.

That one moment, effort or comfort, can change everything.

If you want help staying consistent and building a profile that keeps growing month after month…
 
I can help.
Send me a message.

Follow me for simple LinkedIn growth lessons.

P.S. Do you celebrate early or keep pushing till the end?

Kindness on LinkedIn isn’t weakness, it’s a growth strategy.

I’ve seen people try every “hack” to grow here.
DM scripts. Hooks. Viral templates.
 
But the truth?
Nothing beats kindness.

When you engage with someone’s post without expecting anything in return…

When you drop a thoughtful comment, not just “Great post”…
When you help someone polish their headline or profile, just because you can, that’s when LinkedIn starts working for you.

Because people don’t remember what you post.
 
They remember how you make them feel.

That’s what builds trust.
That’s what turns connections into clients.
That’s what creates real community.

Kindness travels faster than any algorithm.
It echoes.

You help one creator, they help two more.
That’s how visibility compounds.

So, if you’re serious about growing here, don’t just chase engagement.
 
Build relationships.
Be the person others want to reply to.

Small acts build big brands.
Start there.

P.S. When was the last time someone’s small kindness made your day on LinkedIn?

Follow me for more content on LinkedIn growth built on empathy, clarity, and real human connection.

I broke 3 records in one single day.

Yesterday I achieved...

My highest impressions ever.
My highest likes ever.
And my highest new followers, all in 24 hours.

But it didn’t happen by luck.

For the past few days,
I’ve been studying creators who are growing fast.
And I realized, viral posts aren’t luck.

They follow a pattern.

The posts that go big usually do 3 things right:
 
→ They make people feel something (emotion).
→ They make people stay longer (story).
→ They make people share it (motivation).

LinkedIn doesn’t just count likes.

It counts how long someone stays on your post — the “dwell time.”
And how many people share it with others — the “repost effect.”

That’s the real secret.

Now, every time I write,
I make sure people can see themselves in my words.

Because when people feel connected, the algorithm follows naturally.

So if your posts are dying too soon...

Maybe it’s not your writing that’s wrong.
Maybe it’s just the feeling that’s missing.

If you want to see how I applied this, check my last post, it’s a real example.

Every profile has its own algorithm.
So stop copying others.
Start experimenting with what works for you.

Follow me for more simple tips on building your brand and attracting leads.

P.S. What’s one post you’ve written that didn’t perform but you really believed in?

Yesterday, I Broke 3 Records

Please Support Saman Ahmed

In the video below, a group of girls is running a race.
They all start strong.
But halfway through, one of them falls.

The others keep running, except one girl.

She stops.
And lifts the one who fell.
They both cross the finish line together.

That moment says everything about real success.

It’s not just about winning alone, it’s about helping someone rise when they fall.

And today, that moment reminds me of Saman Ahmed.

A brilliant creator.
A voice that inspired thousands.
47,000+ followers.
Hundreds of people engaging with her posts every day.

But now, her LinkedIn account is restricted.
Her voice is silent.
And almost no one is speaking up.

If we can cheer for each other’s success, we should also stand together when one of us falls.

Saman never created for fame.
She created to help others grow.
And now, it’s our turn to do the same for her.

Let’s raise our voices.
Let’s ask LinkedIn to bring her account back.
Because helping one person up, is how we all move forward.

P.S. Tag LinkedIn in the comments.
Let’s remind them that creators like Saman built this platform with kindness, not just content.
