In this compelling episode of Breaching the Boardroom, David Mauro sits down with Dr. Sergio Sanchez—former surgeon, Apple Genius, Activision IT leader, and now Head of IT at Coleman Health Services. From building computers in a video game startup’s basement to navigating the complexities of healthcare IT, Dr. Sanchez shares the extraordinary twists of a career defined by curiosity, compassion, and adaptability.
You’ll hear how a childhood fascination with a dusty Apple IIe sparked a lifelong love of technology, how 9/11 changed his path forever, and why he believes being a great leader means making life easier for your team. The conversation also dives into the real-world implications of AI in healthcare, leadership lessons from working across wildly different industries, and the human side of technology adoption.
This is more than a career story—it's a powerful reminder of how technical skill, empathy, and a sense of mission can shape an impactful journey.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
