What if the best leaders aren’t the loudest in the room, but the ones who listen, adapt, and show up with honesty? This week on #SheLeadsBiotech, I’m joined by Jeanne Hecht, CEO & Chairwoman of Lexitas Pharma Services, and this conversation is a masterclass in leading with both confidence and humility. We cover: 🔹 The shift from micromanager to mentor, and how she learned to let go 🔹 Why founders need to know when to step aside (and how to do it with grace) 🔹 Building trust with investors, boards, and employees 🔹 Her “CEO of the Year” moment, and what came right before it 🔹 Real talk on leadership, ego, and the power of asking for help “A position of strength is knowing when you’re not in the right role, and making room for someone who is.” This one’s for anyone who’s ever thought they had to have all the answers. Spoiler: you don’t.
