Hi Reddit. I want your opinions on something. I have a PhD (from a very prestigious institution) and I put the “(Ph.D.)” after my last name on linkedin after graduating. Now a few years later, I’m more in leadership positions and I’m wondering whether I should remove it.

My reasons to remove it are that (a) I don’t want to look like a show off, and (b) whenever someone tags me on LinkedIn the “(Ph.D.)” really stands out.

What do you think?
