If you have a problem, you want to have Katherine Cox around. The senior quality assurance director of medical device startup Procyrion is known for her calm problem solving manner, collaborative attitude and straightforward approach to quality. She’s worked on products for space as well as the human body. And she’s been hands-on in her approach to quality throughout.
After an audit of a critical supplier found quality system issues, Cox spent several days with the supplier until the issues were resolved. Former colleague Natasha Bond explains, “She saw risk to our business and decided that the best thing was to personally help the supplier resolve the issue.”
