Remove group member (Group Management)

Last updated: 4 months ago

LinkedIn group participants can manage member removal effectively by understanding role-based permissions and their impact on group access.  

  • Group owners can remove members, managers, and other owners from the group. 

  • Group managers can remove group members, but not owners or other managers. 

  • Group members can’t remove anyone in the group. However, they can request group owners and managers to remove a group member. 

When you remove a group member: 

  • They can still access the group homepage.

  • They can still request to join the group again. 

Removing a member from a group is only effective within the group and doesn’t remove the connection between the group owner or manager. 

To remove a group member:

  1. Click Groups from the left pane of your LinkedIn homepage. 

  2. Select the applicable group from Your groups list. 

  3. Click Manage group on the top left rail. 

  4. From the Members section, locate the member you want to remove.

  5. Click the More icon next to the member’s name.
  6. Click either Remove from group.

    Optional: Select the Delete all posts and comments from [member name] checkbox if you want to remove their content. This action can’t be undone and it may take up to 24 hours to delete all posts and comments.  

  7. Click Confirm.
