How to Succeed as a Manager in Medical S...

About this episode

Logan, a distinguished leader in the medical sales industry, joins us to share her unconventional journey, from pre-med student to CEO in neuromonitoring, and later, to a hands-on role in spinal device sales. Her story is a powerful example of how diverse experiences can shape a well-rounded, impactful career in medtech. Logan offers key insights into the role of neuromonitoring in surgery, the risks of false positives, and the critical communication needed between OR teams.

We explore the often-overlooked dynamics between neuromonitoring techs and device reps inside the OR. Logan pulls back the curtain on how strong reps build trust, stay composed under pressure, and keep patient care at the center, even when tensions rise. Her perspective reveals why emotional intelligence and accountability are non-negotiables for long-term success.

Logan's transition from the C-suite back into the field brings a rare perspective on leadership and growth. She reflects on the humility and reward of working directly in surgical settings, the realities of financial motivation in healthcare, and the silos that still exist between clinical and commercial roles. Her take on leadership is clear, great managers must coach, delegate, and develop others if they want their teams to thrive.

Whether you're in the OR, aiming for the executive suite, or somewhere in between, Logan's story is packed with insight, reflection, and hard-earned advice on how to grow a purpose-driven career in medical sales.
