"Follow" Group Members on LinkedIn w/o a Connection

TIP: Now You Can "Follow" Members of Groups You're In

New Following Enhancement:

LinkedIn literally just introduced Following across shared groups to make it easier for you to see contributions made by your connections and other valued users.

By default, you are following your connections and they are following you.

To follow a non-connection, simply click the link by their name in a discussion or on the Members page.

Updates from the people you’re following will appear at the top right of your My Groups page, the top right of the group Overview page, and in your weekly LinkedIn Updates email.

If you follow someone, you are following them in all groups you share with them.

Enjoy!
