Newest episode of "The Angle" from T. Rowe Price spotlights speed-to-deliver, AI, autonomy, and space as priorities shaping the future of national defense
T. Rowe Price, a global investment management firm and a leader in retirement, announced the latest episode of "The Angle from T. Rowe Price," an investment-themed podcast focused on the forces shaping financial markets and the leaders navigating them.
In the newest episode, host Eric Veiel, Head of Global Investments and Chief Investment Officer for T. Rowe Price, speaks with Kathy Warden, Chair, CEO, and President of Northrop Grumman, a global aerospace and defense company and one of the largest U.S. federal contractors.
Veiel and Warden discuss her leadership journey—from early roles at General Electric and a late-1990s technology startup to national security work after 9/11—and how a "continuous learner" mindset and asking the right questions helped her build credibility in a deeply technical organization.
"This conversation offers investors a timely look at how the defense industry is adapting to a more complex security environment where long-term visibility into demand, capacity investment, and rapid technology adoption are increasingly central to execution," said Veiel. "Kathy offered a clear-eyed view of what it takes to move with urgency in today's security environment; investing ahead of demand, embracing new technologies, and building the talent and culture needed to deliver."
