3 Simple Ways To Make LinkedIn Work For You In 2026
"Two important areas to consider while evolving your LinkedIn strategy are humanity and AI. As tech gets integrated into every aspect of business, your humanity is what helps you stand out and build meaningful relationships. That means your profile must show that you are clear, human, generous, empathic, and grounded in real experience, all the things AI and technology are not."
"At the same time, you need to showcase your skill and interest in AI. AI will impact virtually every role. Make it clear that you're using AI thoughtfully and are committed to proactively developing AI skills to remain ahead of the curve. This can show up in how you describe your work, the content you share, and the tools or approaches you reference in your profile."
Update the LinkedIn profile regularly to reflect recent experience, skills, and goals. Prioritize a current headshot that conveys the real you and allows others to recognize you in person. Use the 220-character headline to confirm relevance and connect with the right viewers. Highlight humanity by using clear, human, generous, empathic language and grounding claims in real experience. Demonstrate AI engagement by showing thoughtful use of AI, commitment to developing AI skills, and referencing relevant tools or approaches. Focus on doing the right LinkedIn activities well to position for success in an evolving world of work.
