From Greenfield to GMP.

In today's episode, Hemish is joined by Kyle Powell, Head of Quality at Ratio Therapeutics.

Kyle is a great example of the next generation of quality leaders who are building from the ground up - combining technical depth with a modern, empathetic approach to leadership.

Kyle’s career is an impressive story of growth, moving from regulatory consulting into radiopharmaceuticals, helping to stand up new facilities, and now leading the full quality build-out for Ratio’s 65,000 sq ft Greenfield site in Salt Lake City. 

He talks about the following:

• How Kyle transitioned from regulatory strategy into quality leadership
• What it takes to scale a quality system in radiopharma from zero to commercial readiness
• Moving from tactical work to strategic thinking as a leader
• Building credibility and influence as a young quality leader
• The importance of empathy and communication in leading teams
• How to justify resources and headcount in a startup environment
• Creating a digital-first, paperless quality function from day one
• Lessons from managing culture and mindset through growth
• The softer skills that separate effective leaders from technical experts
• Advice for early-career professionals aiming to step into leadership roles

Kyle is an ambitious and thoughtful leader - pragmatic, forward-thinking, and people-first.

Thank you, Kyle, for sharing your incredible journey.

Hope everyone enjoys the show!
