And these are just the shirts I could find! It's been an exhilarating three years. And I can confidently declare that no one else has this exact combination of apparel.

As Told Through Shirts

THE MYSTERY GOLF SHIRT (Jan?): This
looks like it might have been a sales kickoff
giveaway. Women and baggy golf shirts don’t
mix too well, so this one is still on the hanger.
On the plus side, I do like the white stitching.
If this is indeed from our 2010 sales kickoff, it
was probably about one-fifth the size of the
sales kickoff we’ll have in 2013.
THE INTERNATIONAL
LAUNCH SHIRT (April): this
one commemorates
LinkedIn’s launch in Italian .I
had a choice that day, as
there were also bright yellow
shirts available to celebrate
our Brazilian launch - but
yellow really isn’t my color,
and I’d move to Tuscany in a
heartbeat, so Italy it was.
THE ORIGINAL (Jan ): this
shirt was presented to me on
my very first day of LinkedIn.
It’s simple, classic: LinkedIn
logo on navy blue background.
There were about 500 of us
then. There are over 3,000 of
us today. But the shirt still fits
me incredibly well.

THE SUMMER OFFSITE SHIRT (July):
this one was the product of a T-shirt
contest run by the ever-creative Patrick
Crane. The winning design was elegant,
the pun playful -so very Steve Pecko.
THE BAY TO BREAKERS SHIRT (May).
Here’s proof that we were still a small
company: we decided to try to break a
Guinness World record for the longest
centipede in a race. So there I was at
7.30 on a Sunday morning, standing in
downtown SF, tied to complete strangers
with caution tape. Wearing this T-shirt of
course.
TALENT CONNECT (Nov): our first
annual customer conference for the
Talent Solutions business took
place in San Francisco. I ran the
track for decision-makers and
blogged. I remember being amazed
that we could pull off a conference
at such scale (almost 500
customers showed up).
Little did we know…

4. 2011
THE 100 MILLION MEMBER SHIRT
(March): the first really big member
milestone we passed at LinkedIn.
There were close to 60 million at
LinkedIn when I joined, and we just
announced 200 million, so the 2
members per second growth
continues…
THE IPO SHIRT (don’t recall the
date)(kidding): an exciting day at the
ranch. I was at home that morning and I
recall being glued to CNBC as I watched
the feverish activity on the trading floor at
NYSE. It took them forever to price our
stock as demand exceeded supply..
I remember texting one of our business
leaders when he was in the background of
a shot on TV – ‘smile, you’re on camera!’
– and he texted right back We still feel
like a small company in many ways.
THE CONSOLATION T-SHIRT (Aug): I
wasn’t at this marketing offsite,
because I was still on maternity leave,
and my twins had just been released
from the NICU. No scavenger hunts for
me! But Dee still sent me the T-shirt
anyway.

5. 2012
THE INTORONTO SHIRT
(May): Steve on my team
pulled off a minor miracle
in staging our biggest ever
Canadian customer event.
It was my first time in
Toronto and I loved it.
This is the only white shirt
in the collection!
THE LINKEDIN JAPAN SHIRT (Jul):
this was gifted to me by Rei after I ran a
workshop at our summer offsite. Not
sure what the arrows are all about, but I
rather like them.
THE TALENT CONNECT 2012 SHIRTS (Oct):
we hosted well over 3000 people combined at
our London and Vegas customer conferences.
In Vegas, for the first time , the buck stopped
with me. If we didn’t succeed, it was on me,
Tejal and Catherine. But with an NPS of 72 and
strong industry response, we came through it
well and we’re already planning for ‘13, and
beyond.
