About Tajaey Young

I am currently the Secure Digital Operations Sr. Sales Manager for Global Industries at Rockwell Automation, the world\'s largest industrial automation and digital transformation company. My team helps clients accelerate their path to autonomous operations through transformational programs that enable cybersecurity, data science, and manufacturing operations management at scale.My career path at Rockwell Automation has been pretty diverse, with each role adding a unique layer to my professional growth:🤝 Trusted Advisor & Digital Transformation Champion: Since my start as an Account Manager, I\'ve focused on co-creating value with client executives to execute their digital strategy. In my most recent role as a Global Digital Services Sales Executive, I led initiatives demonstrating the power of the digital thread for our largest Consumer Packaged Goods clients, laying the groundwork for my current leadership position. People Leadership: As the Team Lead for Sales Onboarding Programs, I spearheaded the development, management, and execution of Rockwell Automation’s North America Early Career Programs. In that role, I served as the hiring manager and supervisor for a diverse group of sales associates, fostering their growth and aligning their efforts with our Outcome-Based Selling methodology. In my current role as Digital Services Sales Manager, I get to combine my workforce strategy experience with my digital transformation experience to lead a team of high-performing digital services sales professionals. Global Community Impact: As a volunteer on behalf of Rockwell Automation with the World Economic Forum\'s New Generation Industry Leader (NGIL) program, I contributed to transforming manufacturing and empowering younger generations in the industry. I\'ve also actively fostered courageous conversations for change as the former President of Rockwell Automation\'s Cultures Connected ERG. Lastly, I find deep reward in mentoring underrepresented youth and have actively volunteered in organizations such as Minds Matter and Thrive Scholars.
