I recently made a substantial update to this article to reflect Josh Linkner’s current business ventures and publications, and to improve overall article quality. Major changes include:

• Added recent companies such as Mudita Venture Partners and ImpactEleven

• Updated the list of books with publication years and verified ISBNs

• Improved citation formatting and placement using reliable third-party sources (McKinsey, The Wall Street Journal, Microsoft, Crain's Detroit, etc.)

• Removed duplicate citations and cleaned up article structure

• Reorganized sections for clarity and chronological flow

• Expanded categories to better reflect Linkner's current professional roles

I have no ongoing financial or editorial relationship with Josh Linkner or his team. I advised members of his staff on a short-term project for a nominal fee more than a year ago, and I once recommended him as a speaker to one of my clients without receiving compensation. These updates were made in good faith, based on verifiable public information, and aligned with Wikipedia’s neutral point of view and reliable sourcing policies.

I'm sharing this in the interest of transparency. Feedback and further improvements are welcome. MsZenobia (talk) 08:30, 4 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]
