I wanted to dedicate a post to a newish LinkedIn feature that enables the platform’s users to spotlight other members of their LinkedIn network by sharing someone’s profile with their LinkedIn connections. You can also share your own profile to your network.
You can share your profile with any of your 1st-degree connections and coworkers from the introduction card on your profile. This can help you to grow your network, or to increase your chance of finding and securing professional opportunities.
To share your profile:

You can also use the Share Profile feature to introduce any LinkedIn member to someone in your network who may benefit from knowing them.
To share a member’s profile:
