Keynote Speakers
Leela Srinivasan T'06
Leela is Chief Marketing Officer at Lever, a venture-backed start-up that is reimagining the way companies hire - because at the end of the day, nothing is more important than talent. Most recently she was Vice President of Marketing at OpenTable, the world's leading provider of online restaurant reservations, where she was responsible for all aspects of the company's B2B marketing and product marketing globally.
Prior to joining OpenTable, Leela was Director of Marketing at LinkedIn, the leading online professional network, where she ran content marketing, thought leadership, global conferences and acquisition marketing for LinkedIn Talent Solutions, the company's largest and then-fastest growing business unit. She was with LinkedIn for four and a half years and saw the company scale from 500 to 6,000+ employees in that time. Before landing at LinkedIn, Leela spent three years at management consulting firm Bain & Company in San Francisco and London, working on a variety of strategy and private equity cases. While it's hard for her to recall life before Tuck, before heading to Hanover she ran the new England sales team for Business Wire, the global newswire service that was subsequently acquired by Berkshire Hathaway. In addition to her MBA from Tuck, Leela holds an MA in History and English Literature from the University of Edinburgh in her native Scotland. She lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her three children (all girls), her cat (female), and her husband, who makes it all possible in his capacity as part-time stay-at-home dad. |
