Steve Duddy doesn’t just lead companies—he shapes cultures, mentors future leaders, and makes bold moves under pressure. In this episode, he shares hard-earned leadership lessons from the operating room to the boardroom. From his early days in medical device sales to running multimillion-dollar divisions, Steve reveals how leadership is less about credentials and more about people.
He discusses how real leadership happens in uncertainty—when the path forward is unclear and the stakes are high. He explains how he guided teams through SEC audits, product shortages, and pandemic disruptions without losing trust or momentum. Steve also breaks down how to turn adversity into creativity, and why asking the right questions matters more than having all the answers.
Steve believes strong leadership builds environments where people want to give their best—because they feel seen, supported, and challenged. His leadership style balances structure with adaptability and ambition with empathy. Whether mentoring a first-time CEO or rallying a startup team, Steve shows what it really means to lead with purpose.
