The only thing I can think of (off the top of my head) is for the person who started the discussion to try and take more control of it. When things are starting to branch off, they could invite the others to start another thread for that topic.
Other than that, I really can’t think of anything to offer along those lines.
Thanks!

Interesting, but one of the big problems with any forum discussion reacting to a printed article is that the discussion will fork off into many interesting threads.

But scrolling through the branches can be tedious instead of rewarding.

Do you have a solution for that problem? Thanks.

I am impressed by the way you are able to start discussions on LinkedIn. I still hold up Sales Playbook as an example of the way a Linkedin group should be done. Thank you for our contribution and creating my favorite group on LinkedIn.

Paul, you’ve wrote down your sheer genius for this post. I love the way as you explained from starting to facilitating a conversation/discussion. There are many user on LinkedIn they just post their links but never replied to you.

Paul, this is definitely one of the better posts I’ve read about utilizing LinkedIn effectively for discussion.

The sales pitch disguised as a discussion is the worst.

I am guilty of some of these points, and this post is a great reminder to stay on point.

Thanks, Paul.
