ABOUT TARA HARTLEY
I’ve spent the last 20 years leading teams and driving growth across complex, high-profile organisations in professional services and technology, including PwC, KPMG, and a global law firm.I began my career in consulting and commercial roles within professional services, before moving into senior leadership — including leading Client Development across EMEA and then globally for an international law firm, reporting directly into the C-suite. Over the past 15 years, I’ve consistently worked with C-Suite to shape growth strategy, strengthen client relationships, and deliver against ambitious commercial targets.The consistent thread throughout my career has been leadership — building high-performing teams, creating clarity in complex environments, and delivering results at scale. My leadership style is grounded in energy, resilience, and accountability, with a strong focus on performance, culture, and momentum.I bring a highly consultative and collaborative approach, working across clients, partners, and internal teams to align on what matters most and execute effectively. I’ve also had experience supporting alliance-driven growth initiatives, working with ecosystems including SAP, Workday, Salesforce, and Google.In my current role at LinkedIn, I lead a global, multi-layered team of Account Directors and Customer Success leaders across regions, together responsible for driving growth, strategy, and client outcomes within a complex, matrixed environment.More recently, my focus has centred on AI and agentic AI — working with organisations to translate investment into real, measurable outcomes and embedding AI into how they sell, hire, and operate.I’m particularly interested in how AI is reshaping business models, partner ecosystems, and the future of work — and how leaders can drive that change while keeping people at the centre.
