VP Sales Solutions North America @ LinkedIn

🚀 Approaching my first 90 days at LinkedIn and it has been a whirlwind! Time has flown by, packed with A LOT of learning and some amazing experiences. Grateful for the warm welcome and support from everyone across the company. Ramping a new leader can be taxing but no one has let on to that (yet). Quite the opposite in fact. It feels like I've been here longer than just a quarter, yet my daily discovery of new acronyms continues to remind me of my newcomer status… 🌟 Highlights so far: •𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐓𝐞𝐚𝐦: From the Bay Area to Chicago, New York, and Toronto, meeting our team across North America has been truly inspiring. I refuse to pick a favorite (how could I?) even though some teams have applied pressure to do so. •𝐂𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐂𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞: Each office visit has only deepened my appreciation and understanding for our company culture. A standout moment was a heartfelt session with our Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging leaders in Toronto. Hearing their stories and passion firsthand was both moving and motivating. •𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬: Spending time with our team and customers has been a blast. Having recently been a customer myself, it's been rewarding and fun to be on the other side of the table, helping our customers grow their businesses. 🎯 Wrapping up the Quarter Strong: •Today marks the end of both the quarter and fiscal year, and the energy and winning vibes are palpable. It's been fulfilling to see so many exceed expectations and grow together as a team. Packing up all this momentum to take with us into the new fiscal year.

Happy 1st Q @ LinkedIn! Been a die hard LI Recruiter user since the early days of the product. Do you oversee sales for all products across NA?
