Meegan Carlson reflects on the evolution of One45 and its impact on medical education in a special anniversary episode.
In this special anniversary episode of The Holistic Success Show, we're joined by Meegan Carlson, VP of People, Learning & Enablement & Revenue Operations at Acuity Insights — and a longtime leader at One45. Together with host Anju Visen-Singh, Meegan reflects on the evolution of One45 from a purpose-built tool for medical school scheduling and assessments to its pivotal role today in data strategy, AI readiness, and enterprise enablement.
