Who Is Jamie Dimond? LinkedIn's Leadership Curator (2026)

Jamie Dimond's story, in Jamie's own posts

This section is short on purpose. Jamie Dimond writes little autobiography, and most of the first-person stories on the feed belong to the creators the posts credit. What remains in Jamie's own voice is a marketer's view of work and one idea about belonging, told twice.

The marketer. The biggest post of 2026 opens on the job: "One thing I've learned about marketing: Everyone has an opinion." It then names the gap the job lives in: "The challenge is that seeing marketing and doing marketing are two very different things."

The same post lists "A few reminders I come back to," among them "Let data join the conversation before making major decisions" and "Spend more time understanding customers than studying competitors."

The wrong room. In the last week of 2025, Jamie posted "You can fit in and still be completely out of place," adding: "That took me longer to learn than it should have." The post describes "Getting tired in a way rest doesn't fix."

The same idea, one week later. On January 4, 2026, a second post opened on a lesson "I learned later than I should have": "Being good isn't always enough."

Both posts land on the same two lines, "Your strengths make sense" and "It's about alignment." The rerun earned 3,169 likes against 2,315 for the first.

The rest of the feed runs like an editor's desk.

Thirteen of the 17 posts we hold close on a line such as "Credit: Justin Welsh," "Credit: Sahil Bloom" or "Credit to Tim Denning ( go follow him )." Two more credit only the image.

Each top post of all time carries one. Jamie Dimond finds writing that already works, republishes it, and names the author in plain text.

The first-person details inside those posts (a business founded, a newsletter grown) belong to the credited writers, such as Justin Welsh, and this page does not attribute them to Jamie.

What does Jamie Dimond post about?

The headline says marketing. The engagement says leadership.

• Leadership leads on both counts: 50 posts, the most of any theme, and 2,217 median likes (feed median: 843).

• Content marketing (32 posts) sits at 700, below the feed median.

• Marketing (21 posts) is the weakest theme at 312, a seventh of the leadership figure.

• Coaching (20 posts) lands at 675.

All four of the most liked posts ever are leadership posts, from early 2025: what to look for in a hire, why leaders should hire people better than themselves, defending a team, and the manager's job.

By register, the largest bucket is punchy standalone advice (41 posts), followed by lists (25), best practices (22) and positive messages (20). Only 34 posts carry an offer: 18 sell through value and 16 announce a launch. The feed reads as a reading list first.

Who Jamie Dimond writes for

Three readers show up by name in the posts. The marketer, first: "Most marketers have heard some version of: 'Why don't we just make it go viral?'" The answer: "If only it were that easy."

Then the employee who feels overlooked, the reader of the two alignment posts: "You can do solid work. Hit the goals. Show up prepared. And still feel overlooked."

Then both ends of a team. The POV post on mentoring speaks to the junior who finds a good senior, and closes on the senior: "If you are that senior, your junior will probably remember you for years." The curated leadership posts serve the same manager.

Jamie Dimond's best posts of 2026

The three biggest posts of 2026 so far, reproduced from our data (click through to the originals, or browse 2M+ posts like these in MagicPost):

7,748 likes. A roll call ("Your CEO has one. Your sales team has one.") that ends on a cousin who "posted three times on Instagram last month." Marketing, the weakest theme on average, wins here because it reads as a workplace story. It drew 429 comments and 832 reposts.

7,523 likes. "99% of people get a degree, get a job, then stop learning." A number hook, used in only 7% of Jamie's openings, and a story credited to Tim Denning. Before the credit, the body ends on a four-word question: "Am I missing anything?"

5,835 likes. A POV in 65 words, no list, no credit line. Two closing conditionals ("If you have someone like this... If you are that senior...") hand the post to both readers at once, the junior who has that senior and the senior who could be one.

All four of the biggest 2026 posts landed within 17 days, from October 16 to November 2. The fourth, a pottery-class story credited to Tom Pestridge, earned 5,784 likes.

Is Jamie Dimond still growing on LinkedIn?

Yes, while posting less. The median post went from 701 likes in 2024 (134 posts) to 760 in 2025 (116 posts), then 1,140 in 2026, up 63% on 2024, on only 36 posts so far this year.

2026 is the thinnest year in our data, so that median can still move. The figures also track engagement per post, which says nothing about follower growth.

Our 2026 rankings place Jamie Dimond #19 among the top LinkedIn creators on leadership, ranked by median likes on leadership posts over the last 12 months.

Where do these charts come from? Everything on this page runs on MagicPost's LinkedIn analytics, and it works on your profile too: your best posts, your audience, your benchmark, even a side-by-side with creators like Jamie Dimond.

How Jamie Dimond writes

*Median across the 3,471 creator profiles in our benchmark.

Read two rows together. Paragraphs run 7 words and sentences run 7 words: every paragraph is one sentence. At 87 words, that makes a typical post about a dozen single lines, less than half the average length.

The sentences themselves are only a little shorter than average (7 against 10). The cut comes from the number of lines, and from the hook: 6 words against 11.

Those hooks rarely lead with a number (7%) or a question (4%), and no post we analyzed uses bold or a hashtag. In one word, our system calls the style punchy, and the tone engaging.

The "AI tells" in Jamie Dimond's style (read this the right way)

On the checklist readers use to spot AI writing, Jamie Dimond's posts show one signature:

Four posts in ten turn on the contrast formula, the device readers flag fastest. Both alignment posts pivot on it, setting belonging against fitting in.

An advice frame shows up in 27% of the sample, a hidden-cause reveal in 20%, and the announcing opener in 17%.

AI learned these moves from posts like the ones on this feed. Generic models trained on what travels on LinkedIn, then stacked every move in every post. A feed built on proven writing is a catalog of those moves, used one at a time.

The absences matter more. In the 30-post sample, Jamie Dimond's posts never hedge and never open a line with a transition word, two habits of generic AI drafts. A postscript sign-off shows up in only 7%. (Full guide: how to spot AI writing on LinkedIn.)

When does Jamie Dimond post on LinkedIn?

Jamie Dimond publishes about twice a week (1.9 on average), favorite slot Thursday 1 PM US Eastern, which is 10 AM in California. None of the posts go out in the Eastern morning, and 19% land on weekends.

To compare that early-afternoon habit with the wider market, see our US timing data and the best day to post on LinkedIn. For cadence, our posting-frequency study shows what two posts a week buys.

Jamie Dimond's posts draw a median of 73 comments. At two posts a week they are easy to miss, and an engagement feed puts each one in front of you when it goes out.

What to steal from Jamie Dimond

1. Curate in public, credit by name. 13 of 17 posts we hold name the author, the all-time top four included.

2. Follow the theme that pays. Leadership earns 2,217 median likes, marketing 312, on a marketing profile.

3. One sentence per paragraph. Seven words a line, about a dozen lines, 87 words in all.

4. Rerun the idea, sharpen the opening. The alignment post returned a week later with 854 more likes.

5. Post less, pick better. 36 posts in 2026 hold a 1,140 median; 134 posts in 2024 held 701.
