It all started with a six-month break from her doctoral program. Elizabeth planned to earn a little money at the first viable job she landed. That extended into a full year of employment.
And that begat a nine-year stint in pharma and her exit from academia.
Since then, Elizabeth’s been an IT executive across varied industries. Nearly everywhere she’s worked, she’s acted as the go-to person for translating complex issues into clear plans—and assembling teams that make things happen.
The connection between philosophy and IT may seem opaque. But from Elizabeth’s vantage point, her business acumen ties back to the teaching, writing, and critical thinking she engaged in at grad school.
And who would have guessed all that Wittgenstein would help her view people and work through a refreshingly pragmatic lens?
*Please excuse a few minor background audio blips and outdoors sounds in this episode. What Elizabeth has to say is well worth enduring the occasional bird chirping or snap, crackle, and pop.*
