Ellen Leith loves to connect people has also been interested in areas of business, or life, that is fundamental to people. And a key facet for all of us throughout our lives, Ellen says, is the aspect of paying for something or being paid for something. This led her to launch the Purchase to Pay Network in 2008 and today this network includes over 15,000 key decision makers across a variety of different industries. We talk about knowledge-sharing and learning. Ellen explains that every time she puts on an event she wants people to feel (1) that it has been a valuable use of their time, and (2) that they have learned something new. We also chat about technology and tech humanism, curiosity, collaboration, celebrating success and lost more. 

Ellen Leith is passionate about people, processes that work and technology that does what it says it will. She brings together leaders across Finance, P2P, AP and Procurement to elevate careers, share knowledge and facilitate learning. Ellen is the founder of the Purchase to Pay Network that gives best practice advice, offers benchmarking results, conducts market research, industry news, white papers, jobs, the annual P2P Summit, roundtable events and webinars. PPN also offers its sponsors a chance to connect with new channels and enjoy being a part of a real P2P community.
