Curious about how other CEOs and senior executives use LinkedIn?

We created these lists because we want more people to see what is possible when executives use LinkedIn intentionally. A strong presence does more than make you look impressive. It helps people understand what you stand for, how you think, what you are building, and why that matters.

When you see how other executives with roles similar to yours use LinkedIn, it becomes easier to imagine what your own presence could become.

Each executive on these lists demonstrates something we found compelling. Some have powerfully written profiles, full of stories. Some do an excellent job of conveying the executive’s personality and leadership style. Others have particularly interesting content.

Here’s what we look for in a strong LinkedIn presence:

  • A headline that makes the person’s role and company context clear.
  • An About section that gives us a sense of who this person is and how they are using LinkedIn. We love to see stories here.
  • Enough personal context to humanize the executive.
  • Evidence of expertise, accomplishment, and momentum.
  • Posts that reinforce a few clear themes.
  • A presence that feels intentional and strategically aligned.

We hope you find these examples useful!
