The Silfen Leadership Series is an initiative wherein world-renowned leaders come to campus to speak to students. It is funded by an endowment set up by David ’68 and Lyn Silfen. Each year, a board of six to eight students is selected, with whom we work to run each Silfen session.

As a student-run venture, in conjunction with the Dean's Office and the Office of Development and Alumni Relations, the Series aims to enhance the shared access to intellectual capital between students and the leaders who drive organizations, societies, and markets forward.

This session will be featuring Welltower CEO, Shankh Mitra '09.

Shankh Mitra has been Welltower’s Chief Executive Officer and member of the Board of Directors since October 2020 and Chief Investment Officer from August 2018 to January 2023. Previously, he served in the roles of Welltower’s Vice Chair – Chief Operating Officer and Chief Investment Officer, Chief Investment Officer, Senior Vice President – Head of Investments and Senior Vice President – Finance & Investments. Prior to joining Welltower, Mr. Mitra served as Portfolio Manager, Real Estate Securities at Millennium Management LLC. He also served as a Senior Analyst at Citadel Investment Group and Fidelity Investments. Mr. Mitra began his career at PricewaterhouseCoopers.

Shankh is deeply passionate about capital allocation, the mentoring of early career professionals and predictive analytics in the area of statistical learning and machine learning. He takes great pride in the professional development and advancement of his team. Mr. Mitra serves on the Board of Trustees of Public Storage (NYSE: PSA), is a member of the Nareit Advisory Board of Governors and is a trustee of UT Southwestern Medical Center as a member of the President’s Advisory Board.
