Maja Pedersen on AI, Strategic Thinking, and Evolving as a Quality Leader

Maja Pedersen on AI, Strategic Thinking, and Evolving as a Quality Leader

In today’s episode I was joined by Maja Pedersen, Chief Technology Officer at Fujifilm Diosynth Biotechnologies.

I really wanted to speak to Maja because she leads quality and IT across six global sites, and has a brilliant perspective on how quality leadership is evolving - especially when it comes to people, systems and technology.

She has a calm, clear way of thinking, and we covered everything from shifting your mindset as a leader, to integrating AI in a global quality function, to maintaining personal resilience and clarity.

We talk about the following:

🎙️ Making the leap from tactical to strategic thinking

🎙️ Leading teams across multiple countries, time zones and cultures

🎙️ Building trust in new teams and showing up authentically

🎙️ Balancing the people side of quality with system thinking

🎙️ How to think and lead when you're not the technical expert

🎙️ Staying grounded and maintaining well-being while leading at scale

🎙️ Where quality and IT need to work hand in hand

🎙️ Why quality leaders must develop digital and data fluency

🎙️ How AI will reshape the future of quality in biotech

🎙️ Advice for future leaders stepping into global roles

Maja is a thoughtful, strategic leader who balances big-picture thinking with deep care for people and culture.

You can watch on LinkedIn Live at 8am EST today or listen via Apple or Spotify.

Thank you Maja for sharing your incredible journey.

Hope everyone enjoys the show!
