Join the Women in Seed Production Network as we sit down with Amy Sanders, the Head of Digital and Data Enablement, to explore her nearly 30-year journey from chemist to leadership roles. Amy shares her insights on navigating major career shifts, emphasizing that transferable skills like problem-solving and driving change are far more valuable than technical expertise alone when moving up the ladder. She also breaks down her four essential leadership rules, which involve hiring the best talent, providing clear direction and tools, and ultimately getting out of the way to let teams thrive. The conversation takes a personal turn as Amy recounts a powerful "gut punch" moment involving her young son that taught her the critical importance of advocating for herself and maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Amy further explains the value of finding mentors who ask great questions and surrounding oneself with a "tribe" that offers both support and accountability. Amy leaves listeners with the inspiring message that you can achieve anything you believe you are big enough to do, making this a must-listen for anyone navigating a complex career path.
