We all lead busy lives and try to use technology to make it little easier. At times I find groups on LinkedIn that are helpful and resourceful. But usually they have a shelf life, they may help you get through a transaction, or at least point you in the right direction. I always try to pay it forward when I use a group and add something just as useful back to it, or at least help others who are asking for it in the group, and dont realize the answer is down the list, by about a 100 replies!
And then there are the ones that you realize, right off the top, you never should have joined this group, endless rhetoric, endless emails, endless nonsense....
Whatever your reason, sometimes its just time to leave! So why would Linked-In make it so difficult to leave? They sure don't make it this hard to join the group - lol, kind of reminds me of cell phone contracts, baggage fees at the airlines (sorry that was kind of below the belt)... Whatever your reasons, LinkedIn, if your reading this, , please put a button right there on the page to make it easy. I would probably join more groups if I didnt need a secret handshake to leave it.
The irony of it all, there is even a group about this on LinkedIn, and I found all the information outdated, even the updates to it were outdated. So as of 4/20/2013 this information is up to date and working - I will head over to Linkedin and post this to the outdated group, pay it forward for all the good Linkedin does for me.
You can leave a group at any time.
- Click Groups at the top of your homepage.
- Click the group name.
- Click the More tab in the same row of tabs that include Discussions, Members, Promotions, etc.
- Select Your Settings.
- Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click the Leave Group button.
Please enjoy the view below from a new listing I recently took.
