At STERIS, we are committed to fostering an environment where our Associates can do their best work, develop their talents and grow to reach their full potential, and Sheari, Director of Product Regulatory Cybersecurity, can certainly speak to that. Sheari will reach her 20-year milestone at STERIS this September. She has earned two master’s degrees within the past five years: one specializing in Information Technology and her most recently earned master’s in legal studies, specializing in Cybersecurity Data and Privacy Law, where she utilized STERIS’s tuition reimbursement program for one of her semesters. Sheari started her career at STERIS as an engineer on the Procedural Solutions’ Research and Development (R&D) team and held several electrical engineering and engineering management positions in R&D. It was in a role leading the software engineer team for STERIS Operating Room Integration products where she was first introduced to the field of cybersecurity and had the opportunity to learn more about medical device cybersecurity, which opened up doors to transition to her current role in 2020. “After spending 15+ years in R&D, an opportunity too hard to pass up became available. Working in product cybersecurity allows my team and I to contribute to the STERIS Mission while feeding our own passion for continuous learning. I also feel like we are doing our part to help address the cybersecurity threats to the healthcare sector,” she shared. Product Regulatory Cybersecurity is a new and rapidly evolving area for STERIS, focused on staying abreast of cybersecurity regulatory guidance and legislation impacting healthcare. Sheari works with business units across STERIS and says it’s intriguing how much cross-functional knowledge and expertise is applied to developing safe and secure products and services.

For 100 years, Toastmasters has helped build confidence and teach public speaking skills through a network of in-person and virtual meetings among regional clubs across the globe. Members are empowered to meet both personal and professional communication goals that include building self-confidence and leadership skills, learning how to maximize one’s potential, and improving listening skills. Today, there are over 250,000 members in 148 countries. Some of those members are STERIS Associates like Roger. Roger joined Toastmasters in 2017 and viewed the group as an opportunity to practice and fine-tune his communication skills. Joining STERIS full time in 2022 in Product Regulatory Cybersecurity, Roger is still a member through the STERIS Toastmasters club, which was chartered in 2007. “I attend now because there’s so much to learn in cybersecurity, and STERIS Toastmasters has helped me learn in a way that lets me explain it clearly. The group is honest and respectful, even if I don’t understand something the first time around,” he shared. Roger recently participated in the Toastmasters International Speech Contest and came in second place at the district level. Each year, thousands of Toastmasters all over the world compete for the prestigious title of World Champion of Public Speaking. Entering this contest requires wins at club, area and division competitions. This is only the second time a STERIS Toastmasters Associate has accomplished this. Covering most of Northeast Ohio, this contest is a big deal! Roger uses the skills he has learned during his membership with Toastmasters to mentor and inspire others to become more confident speakers and leaders. Roger said he chose ‘stop setting goals’ as his message to the world. “It’s an important reminder that the goal isn’t the most important aspect in life. If we become too focused on the goal, we might miss some beautiful moments in life.” Below, Roger shares more about focusing on the journey rather than the goal.
