Pip Jamieson is a disruptive, creative, dynamic entrepreneur who embodies curiosity and has not only put social purpose and values at the heart of her tech business, The Dots, the professional network of the future loved by creatives and dubbed by Forbes as the next LinkedIn, she’s also fascinated by what we can learn from trees. “There’s a web of fungi that exists in woodlands. It has been scientifically proven that trees transfer nutrients to trees that aren't doing so well. It’s an ecosystem balance that’s interlinked, and it’s everything I want the world to be.”Pip is an incredible human diversity advocate, who credits her neurodiversity as her superpower, and in this episode, we talk about how to create a platform that's optimised for kindness and happiness. Not vanity or likes. And yes, it is possible. “The big difference between us and LinkedIn is on LinkedIn you promote yourself via a CV and on The Dots you post projects, and then credit the full team around that project.”We also talk about the future of work when people embrace fluid careers and make money from their passions.“Our community, they are the slashie generation, they're the ones that are following their heart and purpose. And they're having to adapt to change, and to enjoy continuous learning, and sharing and skill swapping, and jumping from project to project and it just feels a much more fluid way.”On today’s podcast: Why LinkedIn is an individualistic experience The Dots algorithm is based on positivity and kindness Building a community that cares about each other The link between dyslexia and entrepreneurs What we can learn from nature Links:The Dots

Summary of the episodeJimmy interviews the Founder and CEO of the Dots, Pip Jamieson. The Dots is a platform over over half a million 'no collar workers', these people can include those in the creative industries and the wider technology sector. There are 10,000 companies on the platform using it to hire people. Jimmy provides a briefing note to the Prime Minister which is summarised below. If I were summing that up to the PM, I would probably write something along the lines of the followingPrime Minister, this week, we met with a fascinating company which is creating the modern day rails for the creative economy and more broadly what they term no collar workers It has half a million members on the platform, 40% of whom are freelancers, they are predominantly coming together to work on creative side projects and they are seeing a surge of freelancers as people pursue side projects, partly as a result of the pandemic. There are also 10,000 companies on the platform using it to hire people. Unsurprisingly in the last few months, they have seen competition for applications increasing across the board. But equally there has been a rise of remote working applications and opportunities, which is leading to a democratisation for those not living in metropolitan hubs, we heard a similar theme from Hayden Wood at bulb last week. They are seeing an increase of the multi disciplinary individual, sometimes referred to as T shaped skill set or even coloquially as a ‘slashie'. Furthermore, they are seeing the rise of skill swappers, a trend where people are trading their time and skills in exchange for being taught skills in other areas, for example an accountant or lawyer may offer their time to a start up project in exchange for learning about more creative design and vicer versa. They are seeing this increase at round 50% month on month increase, therefore this is now 25x what it was last year. When building The Dots, Pip referred to four golden skills of product, which are management, engineering, design and data - they have upskilled interns in these areas who are now full team members. Technology firms are increasing their hiring on the platform, but not just in technical skills such as engineering, they are also seeing a significant rise number of copywriters and producers for example.Even in technical roles the importance of creativity is becoming more important, and this is a trend The Dots are likely to see increasing until Quantum technology comes in. I may provide a separate note on Quantum technology, that would be written by someone with lots of PhDs, although I am hoping that we will get a guest on at some point to talk about the impact of Quantum computing soon, because it is truly mind boggling. Please rate us and share us on social media @jimmysjobs thank you for your supportIf you'd like to see more information about the job roles being offered please look at my Twitter @jimmym

Pip Jamieson is founder and CEO of The Dots, a digital platform which been described as 'the Linkedin for creatives'. Her mission is connect people via projects they've worked on rather than who they know. She and her team are based in Protein Studios Shoreditch, which is where this was recorded.

“You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with,” said motivational speaker Jim Rohn, and this is advice that has stood Pip Jamieson in good stead. As the founder of the dots (www.the-dots.com) she's made it her job to surround herself with good people. Everyone on her team has been carefully chose not just for their skills - she rates her data and tech teams incredibly highly - but also for their attitude. When the shit hits the fan you want people around you who will keep a straight, positive head, and seek to fix things instead of complain or blame. More than this, though, it's clear that if you want to build something - something bigger than you - and to succeed in that process, you have to work on yourself. On way to do this is to surround yourself with mentors. When you're taking a leap out of your comfort zone into the unknown it's good to have people on your side who have already made that leap. We all need mentors, and these days there's no excuse not to be able to pick the brains of the world's leading thinkers. And if you can't sit down with them face-to-face, thanks to the internet we have the next best thing. Books, podcasts, websites, blogs. If we don't know something we have google in our pocket. No more excuses. I was lucky enough to sit down with Pip for this latest episode of my podcast. I also tried something new - to video it - it was an experiment and a bit of a disaster, but you can watch the outcome on my blog at www.chrisbrock.co.uk. The audio version is better though.

Pip Jamieson is a superhero. In 2014 Pip founded The Dots, the UK’s largest networking platform for those in the creative industry, as a rival to the “old stale corporate homogeneous beast” that is LinkedIn. In five short years The Dots has grown to over half a million profiles, and shows no sign of stopping. With dozens of accolades under her belt from The Sunday Times, Creative Review, and Sadiq Kahn himself, Pip’s vision of a new way for creatives to find jobs and likeminded people is coming to life, and stopping the stuffy white collars in their tracks. In this episode of TFR: The Podcast, Pip, Paul, and Cookie sip champagne and discuss Pip’s colourful career so far, how having dyslexia has helped to build her empire, and that time she woke up almost upside down on a houseboat…?!

Something I did, [when looking for investment] is that I made a list of all the asshole investors that I heard about in town. And for the first month, I pitched them first. And it was horrific. I was pitching all these awful alpha males [and] I was literally coming home to my husband in pieces. But what was great about that process is by the time I got to the investors I really wanted; I was pitch ready – Pip Jamieson, CEO of The Dots This episode of This Way Up was recorded live on stage at the famous Design and Advertising festival in London in May 2019 and features the amazing Pip Jamieson.Pip is the founder of The Dots, a platform dubbed “LinkedIn for creatives” - that is all about connecting, supporting and championing the people, teams and companies that make ideas happen. Pip has been named one of the Top 50 Leaders in the UK by Creative Review and The Sunday Times Top 100 Disruptive Entrepreneurs. During our conversation, I delve into Pip’s fascinating career. From embracing her crippling dyslexia from a young age and turning it into her superpower. She points outs during our conversation that everyone from Sir Richard Branson, Holly Tucker, Jo Malone to Steve Jobs had dyslexia - proving in the process an important stat: 35% of entrepreneurs have dyslexia, and 40% are self-made millionaires. She also talks about some big milestones in her journey - from ‘blagging it’ as the Head of Marketing for MTV, in New Zealand – “I'd never done marketing before in my life…I didn't have a traditional marketing education, because it was just as things were shifting digitally. And somehow, serendipitously, Facebook launched at the same time. And because I didn't have that traditional marketing background, I just sort of just did it. I just tried it and see if it was going to succeed or fail”To starting her company ‘The Dots’ as a “non-tech, tech founder” and the highs, the lows, and what comes with being a female entrepreneur - from learning how to pitch in a room full of male VCs, responding to negative criticism, being ambitious and wanting to take on the goliaths of this world – she famously says during our conversation she fully intends to overtake Linkedin in 10 to 15 years - you heard it here first!So whether you are embarking into the start-up world or just want to make the most out of your career, there’s something for everyone in Pip’s journey – if nothing else her infectious energy is just worth listening to and will make you feel like you can achieve anything!

Matt is still in London and he managed to find an empty spot in Pip Jamieson’s — (understandably) very busy — diary (8am after a public holiday). Pip is the founder and CEO of The Dots, a professional network for people in the creative industry. She has been named in numerous ‘ones to watch’ lists and has thrown herself into the world of raising capital and entrepreneurship. She’s passionate about diversity, emerging technology, leadership and creativity — and we managed to weave all of them into this conversation. Many in Australia will know Pip as the co-founder of The Loop before she moved back to the UK in 2014 to begin the Dots. She’s incredibly curious, constantly learning new things and with a signature infectious laugh — it’s impossible not to be inspired by her. Especially when you consider she is dyslexic, which she considers her ‘superpower’. The Dots is fast positioning itself as the main alternative to LinkedIn so we also manage to get into the details of what makes them different and what’s next.

This latest episode has David McQueen interviewing Pip Jamieson about her leadership journey so far, and what's next for her latest venture The Dots aka the Linkedin killer

Pip Jamieson is the Founder and CEO of The Dots, a networking platform for the creative industries she launched in 2014 which has over 300,000 users. In this episode, Lauren interviews her about how we will work in the future, the trend for freelancers coming together on projects or forming collectives, and how on earth we can make a living when many of our jobs will be automated in future.

In this episode, we speak to the inimitable, Pip Jamieson. After stints in the British civil service, then with MTV (actually launching MTV in New Zealand aged just 24), Pip founded a ‘LinkedIn for creatives’ called The Loop in Australia. After exiting this, she returned to the UK and its £76bn creative sector to replicate that success. From her houseboat by King’s Cross, she started ‘The Dots’ which is on a mission to connect 1 million creatives this year and is now going viral across the sector. The conversation ranges from river-dwelling and persuading Dizzee Rascal to play the first ever inflight gig, to LinkedIn’s failing current model and its potential shift towards becoming a media company. We talk about the importance of creativity not only as a bottom-line force for success, but also as a vehicle to finding meaningful and fulfilling work. Pip is a Sunday Times Top 100 Entrepreneur, an outspoken advocate for diversity in the workplace and a champion for dyslexics worldwide. We have a good discussion on diversity issues in the work place, on its important role in the creative process, on avoiding unconscious cultural biases and on how companies like The Dots are working to create more equality of opportunity. Pip is a lively talker with great stories; and her mission is impactful with the potential to change the way we work and collaborate.

We are kickstarting 2018’s podcast guest list with the influential Pip Jamieson, Founder of The Dots.   The Dots is a platform that let’s you work with people that inspire you and for companies you respect.   The podcast comes from the original office for The Dots, which is Pip’s houseboat.   We start off by discussing the ideas around The Dots & how Pip developed an idea at her role within MTV to solve the problem of diverse recruiting within the creative industry. We discuss the exciting route The Dots is going to take after recently closing a funding round worth £4 Million. With an excellent work ethic, her team have bought into her passion for the creative industry and embarking on real change when it comes to hiring the best people for projects. “Trust your gut…I think guts is often underestimated in technology, but actually we are the most sophisticated machines that exists…also hiring positive people.” Pip has also featured in the Top 100 Sunday Times Most Disruptive entrepreneur, which is an astonishing achievement.
