Leadership in Medical Device Starts with the Team | Rom Mendel, CEO of Optinova Group

In this episode of Peak Presence, I sit down with Rom Mendel, CEO of Optinova Group, for a conversation on leadership, growth, and the inner work required to lead at a high level. We explore the role fear, insecurity, and ego play in leadership and why the best leaders ultimately make it about the team, not themselves. Ram shares insights from leading a global medical device manufacturing organization, including how to balance long term vision and structure with the ability to stay present and fully engage with the moment in front of you. This conversation touches on leadership culture, self awareness, emotional intelligence, performance under pressure, and the human side of building great teams. Whether you are in medical device, manufacturing, private equity, or simply trying to become a better leader and human being, there is something in this episode for you.
