In today’s episode of the IMPACT Women in Leadership Podcast, host Mary Ann Brown sits down with Cathy Muha, Senior Director of Customer Experience at Maximus and a trailblazer in the healthcare sector. Cathy’s impressive 37-year career at the National Cancer Institute (NCI) is a testament to her unwavering commitment to public health, cancer care, and mentorship.

Cathy also offers her insights on how we can encourage more young women to aspire to leadership roles and navigate careers in industries often dominated by men.
As Cathy prepares for the next chapter after nearly four decades of service, she offers a vision for the future of women in leadership and shares steps we can all take to accelerate progress in achieving greater gender equality in the workplace.
