“I have had the pleasure of working with Annie during her tenure at LinkedIn Learning as an Account Executive in N. America. Annie contributed greatly and had a significant impact to the acquistion business in N. America as an early founder to LinkedIn Learning! I was always impressed with her ability to challenge herself to reach new accomplishments while elevating her teammates. I really appreciated her growth mindset and being a thought partner to her business. I highly recommend Annie and welcome the opportunity to work with her again.”

How can you develop a pipeline of potential leaders in your organization?
Assess how the team approaches ambiguous or challenging aspects of the business and invest in creative, positive approaches. In my experience, that investment can be in placing trust in healthy stretch projects for them — the best ones are the ones in which failure has a low blast radius and where a success could have a big one (for their career, brand or business). Support the failure/guide on the course-correction and be a megaphone for the successes in the rooms where they may not have access to. Reward both inspirational and operational qualities equally, and pair the team members who index high on one with a team member who indexes high on the other. Then, have enough confidence in your instincts to let them fly.
