Kate Reed

I am a Chief Marketing Officer focused on driving durable growth, market leadership and tight go-to-market execution. For more than 20 years, I’ve led marketing organizations at IBM, Syniti, Devo and Delinea. I scale brands, accelerate pipeline build and align marketing, sales and product around shared outcomes. My work centers on building high-impact marketing engines that drive measurable business results. At Delinea, I lead a global marketing team responsible for brand, demand, positioning and GTM alignment. I partner closely with executive leadership and sales to ensure marketing operates as a growth multiplier, not a support function. My real superpower lies in building high-performing, purpose-driven teams and driving alignment across the go-to-market engine, especially through trusted, strategic partnerships with sales. I thrive at the intersection of marketing and revenue, ensuring the entire GTM team is operating with shared goals, mutual respect and a relentless focus on exceeding business objectives. I’m especially passionate about advancing women in technology, cultivating inclusive teams and showing that ambition and empathy can (and should) coexist. Outside of work, I’m a proud mom of two kids and two dogs, navigating life in the Massachusetts suburbs and enjoying summers on the Maine coast.
