About Lauren Silvers

My expertise is in Revenue Operations and Enablement, and I was recently honored by SalesIntel.io as one of the top women making an impact in SaaS. In my current role at Okta, I lead Sales Transformation globally, with an explicit focus on the intersection between AI and methodology. From building a creative agency in NYC, to teaching some of the brightest minds in the world how to think critically at University of Chicago, to partnering with high growth companies to achieve their productivity goals, seeking out transformative opportunities and embracing vertical learning curves is in my DNA.
