In this conversation, Joel shares how he leads through disruption, including mergers, outsourcing, and major industry change, while keeping technology teams connected to real customer impact. He explains what he calls the “accountability gene,” why it drives results, and how leaders spot it, support it, and build teams around it. You will also hear Joel’s perspective on legacy, talent development through internships, and why innovation, including AI, has to be guided by trust, safety, and responsibility when the work quite literally keeps the lights on.
