About Jason Seiden

Hi! I’m Jason. I’m on a mission to help 1 million people shine. And it all starts with learning to use social media to tell a better story.

I recently co-founded Ajax Social Media to help front-line professionals—especially recruiters, salespeople, and those in client services—use online technologies to create more business opportunities, with less work.

Specifically, Ajax helps professionals use LinkedIn to convey credibility, establish trusted online connections, and convert online connections into real world relationships. In 2010, our training program became the first in North America to be certified by LinkedIn. We work with both individuals and organizations.

In addition to running Ajax, I serve as Interim co-Chair of the Career Advisory Board (presented by DeVry), and as a member of SmartBrief’s Workforce Advisory Board. I’ve written two career books, Super Staying Power and How to Self-Destruct™: Making the Least of What’s Left of Your Career. Both show how common communication patterns hold people back at work, and provide readers with new, more successful perspectives. My third book, Beyond Social, is in the works. (The podcast launched January 2012.) My work has appeared on network and cable television, as well as in numerous print, radio, internet, and cable news outlets.

I’ve been “profersonal™” since 1991.
