ABOUT SHANNON LEE TOPINKA
I connect strategy to execution and build ecosystems that enable change.As a Strategy & Operations leader with 25+ years in healthcare and life sciences, I partner with executives to set priorities, run operating rhythms, and lead initiatives from strategic planning through to measurable results. My work spans startups and global enterprises, including IPO readiness, global expansion, brand launches, organizational transitions, and enterprise efficiency.Throughout my career, I have served as the trusted right hand to senior leaders, often operating as Chief of Staff whether or not it was part of my formal title. I specialize in facilitating executive planning and leadership alignment, strengthening cross-functional collaboration, and embedding initiatives into the business for long-term success. Strengths include meeting facilitation, building clarity and structure, mentoring leaders at all levels, and preparing materials that support investor and board discussions.Alongside my consulting firm, The Collaborative Strategists, I founded the Women’s Health Hub, a nonprofit initiative developing the digital infrastructure to accelerate women’s health innovation, research, and policy. This reflects one of my differentiators: advancing under-resourced areas of healthcare while driving impact across the broader life sciences sector.
