About the Speaker:Pam Fox Rollin

Executive Team Coach, Strategic Advisor, Speaker

The AI transition isn’t just technical—it’s deeply personal for leaders. It challenges their identity, their basis for contributing, and their sense of control. Pam guides senior leaders in science-based companies to evolve—as individuals, teams, and entire organizations – so they can successfully navigate from expertise-based leadership to the cross-functional, design-driven, and very much human leadership required in the AI transition.

Pam’s interactive talks and practical workshops resonate with leaders in healthcare and life sciences—people who are super-smart, dedicated, a mile deep, and doing their best to keep technical, clinical, and business teams on track under pressure, so they can innovate for customers and patients. These sessions combine strategic insight, real-world examples, and specific practices that participants can use immediately to strengthen their leadership.

Drawing on three decades of strategy consulting and executive team coaching, Pam brings extensive experience with industry leaders like Genentech’s gRED, Stanford Medicine, and Kaiser Permanente, as well as dozens of smaller public, private, and venture-backed companies. With her team at Altus Growth Partners, she has worked with thousands of leaders to succeed in building the mindsets and skillsets to lead through uncertainty and change.
