Join Dan as he discusses leadership, career opportunities, and how to make it in the world of IT with this week’s guest Michelle Greene. Michelle is currently the Senior Vice President and Chief Information Officer at Cardinal Health, multinational healthcare, and pharmaceutical company. After working in IT and business for over two decades, Michelle is an experienced leader who is known for her “Michelle-isms,” including “the land of comfort has no growth” and “everything happens for a reason.” Her word of the year is intention: living and working intentionally with focus and energy. Being a good leader is recognizing the importance of your people and energizing them. Especially now—job seekers have the power, and in Michelle’s words “Do not let anyone take your power.” Be sure to listen to the full episode for even more Michelle-isms and advice from an IT insider.
