Caffeinated Convos & Horrible Bosses with Aaron Windle

Did you ever work with someone who is your total opposite, but you completely gel with professionally? Yea, me too. Aaron Windle is a wonderful colleague and IT partner in crime. I always appreciate Aaron’s candor and his ability to ask tough questions. He is a true leader, and I was so excited when he agreed to be my guest on Caffeinated Convos & Horrible Bosses. In this episode we get to talk about his horrible boss experience and his organic bullet proof coffee. We also talk about the ways Aaron uses what he has learned to lead his own team in challenging times like we are experiencing now.

Aaron Windle started his journey in IT as a Helpdesk technician and over time has worked his way through various IT roles, growing into his current role as Director of IT for Iron Mountains/Nuna Baby Essentials, a global premium baby gear brand headquartered in Morgantown, Pennsylvania.

His favorite parts and the things he is most passionate about is the opportunity to take something (whether it’s working well or not working at all) and transform it into something great. Aaron has an innate ability to transform teams, technology and solutions to improve business bottom lines and create a path for growth for any one who has the pleasure of being on his team.

He enjoys a hands-on approach to leading his team's, work's hard to manage "people first", and operates his teams with the following guidelines:  "Make it simple, Make it work, Show we care". In his free time Aaron enjoys time with his wife Kristen and their children, Everett, Graham and Eliza. Right now he’s enjoying lots of extra time with them and taking the chaos all in stride.
