Christmas Podding: Day 9 – To Hat or Not to Hat on LinkedIn? 🎄

Video

Welcome back to We Do Group’s Winter Wonderland, where today’s debate is all about spreading Christmas cheer on LinkedIn. Should you add a festive hat to your profile picture or tweak your company logo with a touch of holiday magic?

Here’s the verdict:

  • Pro-hat: If it fits your vibe, go for it. It’s fun, festive, and shows personality – plus, it makes your profile a little more human.
  • Proceed with caution: If you’re actively job hunting, keep it professional. Green “Open to Work” overlays, Santa hats, and reindeer ears might send a busy message.
  • For companies: Festive logo updates are a great way to show off your brand’s fun side and celebrate the season with your audience.

And while we’re on the topic, here are a few LinkedIn tips for the festive season:

  • Post once a week – share something authentic, personal, or work-related.
  • Engage with your network – comment, like, and connect meaningfully.
  • Show the human side – people love to connect with real stories, especially at Christmas.

So, to hat or not to hat? That’s up to you – just don’t forget to let a little festive cheer shine through this season.
