About Erin Blake
I’m a Business Operations leader at Expedia Group focused on building operational systems that help leadership teams execute at scale. My work sits at the intersection of strategy, operations, and technology. I design and run executive operating rhythms, workforce governance, and organizational planning processes that help leadership teams move from strategy to execution. Recently I’ve been focused on applying AI and automation to operations. I build AI assistants and workflow automations that streamline reporting, surface insights faster, and reduce manual operational work across leadership teams. Areas I work in most often: • Executive rhythm of business and leadership operations • Workforce planning and organizational governance • Operational dashboards and decision frameworks • AI-enabled automation and workflow design • Program management for large cross-org initiatives Before Expedia I worked at Boeing as a Business Analyst and at Wells Fargo leading branch operations, which shaped my approach to operational rigor and data-driven decision making. I’m particularly interested in how AI will reshape business operations and leadership decision making in the next decade.
