About Jane Lai
Strategic HR leader with 20 years across Fortune 500 and global tech, known for turning complex organizational challenges into clear, actionable people strategies. I partner with senior leaders to shape org design, talent strategy, and culture in large, fast‑moving environments. My experience spans leading people initiatives for major engineering groups in Microsoft\'s Cloud+AI division and serving as Chief of Staff to the HR Corporate VP for Xbox through high‑visibility transitions, including the Activision Blizzard acquisition. I’m recognized for a calm, structured, data-informed approach, strong executive partnership, and a bias for execution that helps teams do their best work during moments of change. I’m energized by helping organizations and leaders grow, adapt, and perform at their best.
