LinkedIn is essentially a digital resume that people can view wherever and whenever. Sometimes these LinkedIn profiles are short and sweet, other times they're long and challenging to get through. Today, we're dealing with the latter: those long and very informative profiles that are filled with accomplishment after accomplishment, and will probably leave you asking what you're doing with your life. Seriously, some of the accomplishments and positions these people have attained and held (or are still holding), is impressive. No wonder they're practically on the top of the world in their respective fields. Here are the 10 Trillest Profiles on LinkedIn.
Jeffery Bray
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: CEO, MedQuest Pharmacy
Connections: 500+
Looks like Mr. Bray's perseverance while attending three different universities paid off. The guy is currently the Chief Executive Officer of some enterprise called Medquest Pharmacy, and served as the head-honcho of several other businesses before then. Safe to say, he practically knows a little a bit about everything. Entrepreneurship? Check. Management? Check. Business Strategy? Check. Ballin'? Well, it doesn't officially say so on his profile—but we're sure he has a high rating there, too.
Dave Bossert
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Producer, Creative Director and Head of Special Porjects at Disney
Connections: 500+
So, this guy was a visual effects animator for Disney's big three: The Little Mermaid, Aladdin and Hercules. Technically, your childhood wouldn't have been as great if this guy wasn't around. Currently, Bossert is the Creative Director for Walt Disney Animation Studios, and judging by how he describes his occupation, we have to thank him for some of the latest Disney movies to come out. From UCLA to Walt Disney Studios: started from the bottom, now you're here, Mr. Bossert.
Gary Rosen
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Senior VP and General Manager at Disney English
Connections: 500+
Gary Rosen is another guy that has a hand in the Walt Disney LinkedIn universe. Yet, unlike Bossert, he helps take Disney overseas. The guy went through various stints here in the states, working with McDonald's and the Walt Disney Company, before working for those same two places in different parts of China. After learning Chinese, he became the Senior Vice President of Disney English, an enterprise that helps kids learn English through Disney-based programs. But, we shouldn't expect anything less from the guy: he graduated from Harvard, after all.
Peter Rowan
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Climate Change Adaption and Mitigation Facilitator at Sustainable Development and Renewable Energies
Connections: 500+
Maybe Peter's hard work in France will make its way across the world someday. As a Climate Change Adaption and Mitigation Facilitator, Peter works on projects that utilize renewable energy sources, while being ethical about the projects and ideas he thinks up. Listen, the guy is good at what he does: he's won awards for his work. Keep up the good job, Mr. Rowan.
Biao Wang
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Consultant and Speaker for Camellia Universal Limited Company
Connections: 500+
Biao Wang has been featured in several different publications across the world, so he must be doing something right. Working as a consultant and speaker for Camellia Universal Limited Company, Wang addresses various China-related business and culture topics. This, in turn, helps western businesses understand the ways China works, so that if they want to create a profitable business in China, they'll know the proper ways of doing so. He also has 18 recommendations from other LinkedIn members, which is way more than some of the other people on this list. Kudos to you, Biao.
Rich Guard
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Managing Director and Principal Consultant at Kaiser Permanente
Connections: 500+
Rich Guard is a self-described "internationally recognized Vice President/Director-level Project Manager." That's pretty cool to be known worldwide. But seriously, just look at this dude's profile. Bank of America, Xinify, Novartis. Granted, we don't know much about the last two mentioned, but they all sound like hard jobs to come by. Guard has also been the Managing Director of Kaiser Permanente for 37 years. 37 YEARS. Guard definitely puts in work, and then some.
Tom Vogel
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Strategic Communications Executive, Book Editor and Author
Connections: 500+
And here we thought Guard's LinkedIn was above and beyond. Just look at all the stuff that Mr. Vogel has accomplished and received: Winner of the 1996 Inter-American Press Association's Tom Wallace Award for Economics Reporting; a staff reporter for The Wall Street Journal; and the founder of Rachlan Strategic Communications LLC. Vogel was even a finalist for the 1996 Pultizer Prize for International Reporting. Wow.
Oliver Frielingsdorf
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: General Manager at Europe Triumph International Group
Connections: 500+
Not only is this dude involved in several different occupations but he can speak five different languages. Currently, Oliver is the Consultant and Senior Advisor of pop-market.com, a website that enables leading brands and retailers to easily communicate with each other. The network has over 25,000 U.S. and international retail buyers. (Fun fact: prior to pop-market.com Oliver was the Vice President and Director of Tommy Hilfiger Denim Europe.) This guy isn't joking when he says he has "over 18 years of experience" with apparel and fashion.
JJ Juan-Jose Juan
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Global Leader of Enterprise Innovation at Vodafone
Connections: 500+
Vodafone is a big deal, but this dude being the Global Leader of Enterprise Innovation of Vodafone is an even bigger deal. JJ led Vodafone's Enterprise Innovation strategy worldwide, and successfully managed to create over 100 deals with countries across the globe. Add the fact that JJ knows four different languages into the mix, and you have probably one of the greatest LinkIn profiles of all time. Way to go JJ, you over-achiever, you.
Federiga Bindi
LinkedIn Profile
Current Title: Director at Italian Cultural Institute in Brussels
Connections: 500+
Okay, so there's actually someone out there that kind of is more of an over-achiever than JJ. Federiga Bindi knows six different languages; has served as a fellow in the United States Senate; was a Senior Advisor to the Italian Minister of Foreign Affairs and is currently the director of the Italian Cultural Institute in Brussels. Hot damn. But it doesn't stop there: Federiga has won over a dozen awards. How do you do what you do while also raising a child, Federiga? You may very well be the epitome of hustling. (At least in Belgium, anyways.)
