About Liz Picone

I’m an transformational leader with over 15 years of experience driving large-scale product and organizational transformations at Fortune 500 firms. At JPMorganChase, I lead a global, cross-functional team to adopt an enterprise-wide Product Operating Model across 32 product lines—streamlining foundational initiatives, launching a resource site that saw 78% year-over-year growth in engagement, and aligning stakeholders from CIO\'s down to technologists. My background spans portfolio management, agile adoption, and strategic planning—having managed up to a $55 million budget and 650 headcount, enterprise planning and investment planning cycles, and fostered rigorous security and resiliency protocols.I’m passionate about building a people-first culture where continuous learning, open collaboration, an environment that is psychological safe and recognition fuel innovation and collaboration. Colleagues know me as “the calm in the storm,” someone who pairs big-picture vision with meticulous attention to detail and unwavering support for each team member’s growth. Whether designing firm-wide community and culture programs, facilitating cross-LOB collaboration, or mentoring future leaders, I bring integrity, empathy, and a relentless focus on lifting others—because I believe that listening truly can move mountains.
