In this episode of Expressions of Leadership, Michele Kawamoto Perry sits down with Sucharita Kodali, retail analyst, civic innovator, and the driving force behind The Election Hub, a SEED20 initiative designed to help voters make informed choices in local elections.

Sucharita shares her journey from shaping consumer insights in the private sector to championing data-driven civic engagement. She opens up about the leadership lessons she’s learned along the way — from navigating ambiguity and building trust through transparency to using technology to empower communities rather than divide them.

Together, Michele and Sucharita explore what it means to lead with clarity and purpose in an age of information overload, and how informed voices can help build stronger, more connected communities.
