Professionals Who Shared Failures on LinkedIn - Rejections & Setbacks

I’m looking for people who have failed. 👀 I’m a journalist with BBC World Service, and I’m working on a story about the growing appetite for sharing failures, rejections and career setbacks on LinkedIn. Think: the job you didn’t get, the business that didn’t take off, the project that went spectacularly wrong… or the post that flopped. Are we finally getting tired of the “I’m thrilled to announce…” posts and making more room for the less glamorous side of working life? If you’ve shared a professional failure on LinkedIn, or have something to say about this trend, I’d love to hear from you for a potential BBC video and written feature. Drop me a comment or send me a DM. And yes, failure is very much welcome here. 👇
