What does leadership really look like behind the scenes of a growing HTM company?

In this episode of HTM On The Line, Bryant Hawkins Sr. sits down with Alex Heileman, COO of Elite Biomedical Solutions, to talk about leadership, family business, and building the future of the Healthcare Technology Management industry.

Alex shares her journey from working part-time in her father’s biomedical company as a teenager to helping lead a thriving organization that manufactures replacement parts and supports medical equipment across healthcare systems. She opens up about leadership lessons, overcoming self-doubt, and what it’s like running a business alongside family.

The conversation also dives into culture, motherhood and leadership, and why Alex believes the HTM workforce challenge isn’t a talent shortage, it’s an exposure shortage.

If you care about leadership, building strong teams, and inspiring the next generation of HTM professionals, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
