A Data Management VP reflects on management, innovation in tech, and Asian-American identity in leadership
As the Vice President of Data Management at Castlight Health, Lauren Bui leads a diverse and dynamic team that delivers insights and modernization to 20+ million patient datasets through Castlight's suite of applications. That in and of itself is impressive feat, and in this episode of manager.flow, Lauren discusses her journey and growth into the highest levels of technical leadership over a several-decade period.
Notably, in 2018 she was presented the Dallas Business Journal - Women in Technology Leadership award, served as the 2019 keynote speaker at the Health Innovations Summit and has served on the MIT CISR committee. Lauren is also published in Health Tech and Digital Health and also the HCI Digital Health magazines.
Lauren and I also discuss some shared experiences in being children of immigrants as her family escaped from Vietnam during the conflicts in the 20th century, and how these identities interplay and affect leadership styles. She's got a fascinating story and an important perspective on people-management and identity.
