Going from ‘In the Weeds’ to the Boardroom: Tactical to Strategic Quality with Elisabeth Hutchins.

Going from ‘In the Weeds’ to the Boardroom: Tactical to Strategic Quality with Elisabeth Hutchins.

This week on Let’s Talk Quality, we’re joined by Elisabeth Hutchins, Senior Director of Quality at Upstream Bio, for a conversation focused entirely on one theme:

How quality professionals make the transition from tactical execution to strategic leadership.

In this episode, Elisabeth shares:

  • What changes as a company enters Phase 2 and Phase 3
  • The moment she realised she needed to stop firefighting and start planning
  • How she built the quality team around her to enable strategic thinking
  • The soft skills that shape strong future QA leaders
  • How to balance urgent deliverables with long-term quality strategy
  • Why confidence is essential before others trust you as a strategic partner

Elisabeth brings an honest and practical perspective that will resonate with managers and directors looking to step into bigger leadership roles.

A highly insightful discussion for anyone looking to evolve into a strategic quality leader.
