Siri Loken
@siriloken
Operational-minded Program Manager transforming executive strategy into measurable leadership outcomes.
What I'm looking for
I’m the person senior leaders rely on to turn big ideas into operational reality. With a Master’s in Project Leadership and Management and 14+ years partnering with executives, I build complex organizations to run better by connecting people, removing obstacles, and delivering results that matter.
Currently, I serve as the operational backbone for leadership development strategy at Amazon Integrated Security (11,000+ employees), managing executive communications, cross-functional governance, and the rhythm of business for programs that develop the company’s next generation of leaders. I combine 8 years of direct executive partnership with 6+ years of program and business operations to align stakeholders, design operating cadences, and ensure decisions translate into execution.
Across my experience, I’ve owned full-cycle program delivery—from here’s an idea through measurable outcomes—using operational excellence like action tracking, process design, policy development, and performance reporting through PowerBI and LMS analytics. I’ve delivered an elite 12-week leadership program end to end (communications, facilitator vetting, kickoff execution, and director-panel orchestration), redesigned it for measurable skill development outcomes, and built PMO capabilities from the ground up (templates, policies, and a PMO Wiki) to keep delivery moving forward with clarity and accountability.
