How do you lead with impact—before you ever get the title?

In this episode, I sit down with Michele Doyle, VP of Data & Analytics at Senos, to explore what it means to lead from the crossroads of engineering, operations, and strategy. Michele shares her unconventional journey from psychology to tech leadership, how to lead with influence before you're formally given the title, and what it takes to build trust, safety, and innovation in complex teams—especially in non-obvious tech spaces like fermentation.

You'll hear about:

◾How to step into strategic leadership without the title

◾The underestimated power of cross-functional influence

◾Creating psychological safety and generous leadership

◾Real-world AI adoption (in the brewing industry!)

◾Why emotional regulation is the unsung skill of great leaders

Whether you're an emerging tech leader or a seasoned exec looking to build empowered teams, this episode will help you lead with confidence, clarity, and real influence.
