Note: You may not have noticed, but LinkedIn is changing the way you do things.
The “good stuff,” as I like to call it, is getting harder to find, but I will show you where to look in the next few blog posts.
Right next to the “send a message” bar on any connection’s personal profile page, you will see an adjacent button with a downward pointing arrow.
Click that and a dropdown box with some powerful functionality appears.
All this week, I will review them one by go one by one to make you more comfortable using these shortcuts:
Recommend:
All I will say here is hallelujah that LinkedIn made it easier to get to the Recommendations function and not make you go old way!

More about these functions tomorrow.
