Overview

In this focused episode, Dr. Huntley demystifies LinkedIn profile photo best practices for public health entrepreneurs. Drawing on her extensive leadership experience, she shares proven, easy-to-implement tips to ensure your profile makes a powerful first impression, helping you stand out, connect authentically, and drive more business opportunities on LinkedIn. For those feeling overwhelmed by the platform or stuck on where to start, Dr. Huntley’s expert advice is the perfect “easy button” to begin making your profile work for you.




Takeaways


  • High-Quality, Clear Photo: Upload a crisp, well-lit image. Blurry or pixelated pictures diminish credibility, no matter your expertise.

  • Face Visibility Matters: Ensure your face fills about 60% of the frame so visitors instantly recognize and connect with you; avoid distant or full-body shots.

  • Solo Image Required: Use only a photo of yourself. Group, cropped, or family shots confuse potential contacts and dilute your personal brand.

  • Choose a Recent Photo: Select an image that truly represents how you currently look, enhancing professionalism and trust.

  • Ditch the Selfie: Ask someone else to take your photo for a polished, professional appearance. Selfies often look less credible.

  • Profile Photos Impact Networking: The right profile photo sets the tone for how fellow professionals and collaborators perceive you online.

  • First Impressions Are Critical: An optimized photo boosts profile visits and is central to successful public health networking and business growth.

  • Incremental Wins Build Confidence: Improving just your photo can make updating LinkedIn less overwhelming and encourage more profile enhancements
