Yolanda Conyers Biography

Yolanda Lee Conyers is Vice President of Global HR Operations and Chief Diversity Officer for technology giant Lenovo, one of China’s first global brands and the world’s No. 1 personal computer maker. In this role, she has developed industry-leading expertise in navigating across boundaries to create a company culture built to last. In addition to founding the first-ever diversity office for a company of Chinese heritage, she has transformed Lenovo’s day-to-day human resources operations by ensuring consistency of processes, systems and data for a complex global company with employees in more than 60 nations.

A 25-year high-tech industry veteran, Yolanda pioneered “The Lenovo Way,” a blending of the best of eastern and western business cultures, by harnessing culture and diversity as core strengths. Using this strategy, Lenovo has grown from a $3 billion China-based company to a $39 billion global powerhouse, the number-one personal computer company in the world, and a growing player in smartphones, tablets and other high-tech devices.

Yolanda’s first book, "The Lenovo Way – Managing a Diverse Global Company for Optimal Performance," reveals the challenges behind Lenovo’s strategy to go global and how the company overcame them during its acquisition of IBM’s personal computer division and its iconic ThinkPad product line in 2005. The book is co-authored by Gina Ciao, Lenovo’s Senior Vice President of Human Resources.

Yolanda received her bachelor’s degree in computer science from Lamar University and an MBA in international business from Our Lady of the Lake Executive MBA Program. She is also a 2012 graduate from the University of Michigan after completing the Advanced Human Resource Executive Training.
