In This Episode:
I sit down with clinical research executive Kathy Bradrick to explore her journey through the CRO world: from her early days in business operations at a startup to becoming CEO of her own company.
Throughout the conversation, Kathy shares how business sense, asking good questions, and a strong work ethic helped her grow her career, and why small companies remain close to her heart.
You’ll hear reflections on founding companies, navigating mistakes, learning through doing, and how people-centered leadership fuels sustainable growth. Plus, enjoy a bit of reminiscing as Kathy and I reflect on fun and formative moments from our intersecting careers over the past 25+ years.
Listen and learn:
What to do when you make a million-dollar mistake
Why it’s important to understand the business beyond your role
What small companies offer that large companies do not
How you are networking every day—even if you think you’re not
Quote of the episode:
“Leadership isn’t about having all the answers—it’s about curiosity, courage, and the willingness to keep learning.”
