LinkedIn is where prospects meet the brand before they meet the team. The company page and every team member's profile are the first credibility check. The studio team owns the page; each member owns their profile against these rules.

Company page values are LinkedIn's official spec; the personal banner size is the long-standing community standard the platform itself never states. Treat it as reliable, not guaranteed.
Templates & assets
Cover and post-image blanks at spec size, plus a personal-banner template so team profiles match the page, are requested from design. Each frame below holds its format at the exact ratio until the template lands.

Don't
Don't ship a link post without its image
A missing 1200×627 image lets LinkedIn pick the preview, usually a stray page element. The link card is the post's first impression.
Don't push cover content to the edges
The 6:1 cover crops differently on every device. Detail at the edges disappears on someone's screen. Keep the message in the middle.
Don't improvise the company logo
A padded, stretched, or recoloured mark in the square slot reads as a knock-off. The avatar variant exists for exactly this crop.
