On this episode of Sidra Unplugged, I sit down with someone whose career at McKesson is truly remarkable — Sean Nelson, Vice President of Customer Sales & Support.
Sean has been with McKesson for 23 years, starting as a field sales rep and working his way up to leading multiple regions across the U.S. as a Regional Vice President before moving into his current national leadership role. Along the way, he has earned some of McKesson’s highest honors — including:
🏆 2024 McKesson Senior Leader of the Year
a recognition reserved for leaders who not only deliver results, but elevate the people around them. Sean’s leadership style is simple: stay humble, support your team, and always put the customer first. In our conversation, Sean shares how relationships and consistency shaped his career, and we talk about how he became one of the first people inside McKesson to believe in Sidra.
Long before Sidra became an official partner, Sean saw the potential and helped us navigate the internal process — a key step that contributed to Sidra becoming an official McKesson partner in 2024.
Sean’s story is proof that great careers aren’t built overnight — they’re built by showing up, doing the work, and helping others win.
Let's go McKesson!
