#35 - Tara Mac Aulay on the audacity to fix the world without asking permission

Former CEA CEO and Operations Specialist Tara McCauley leveraged a background in data-driven optimization across sectors like healthcare and humanitarian aid to transform organizational efficiency, notably saving millions at St. Vincent's Hospital and mitigating fatal systemic errors in Bhutan. She applies these lessons at the Centre for Effective Altruism by prioritizing "invisible" infrastructure and a culture where the best argument wins, while advocating for operations as a distinct, high-skill career path essential for scaling mission-critical work. Currently, McCauley is recruiting UK and US Operations Specialists, an Events Specialist, and a CEO Office Project Manager to further build the sector's operational capacity before the application deadline on July 6th.
