Episode 31: Donna Kelsey, CEO, American Senior Communities
Donna Kelsey, CEO of American Senior Communities (ASC), oversees more than 10,000 employees at the Hoosier-based senior healthcare company.
A 26-year veteran of the U.S. Naval Reserve, Donna is responsible for driving strategic plans to carry out the vision, mission, and values of ACS.
In this episode, you’ll hear how the company’s core values [which spell out the word ‘CARE’] are instilled in the culture. Investing in things such as committees focused on employee engagement and Care Companion, a program where employees are assigned to a ‘partner’ patient to get to know them better, have been key in ASC’s talent attraction and retention strategy.
Service is at the core of Donna’s being. She joined the military to serve our country and now she has dedicated her life to the service of seniors.
“I see a spirit in them. I see life through their eyes,” she says.
If you’re interested in dedicating more of your time and energy into service, this episode is for you. Plus, you don’t want to miss Donna’s advice when it comes to hiring the RIGHT people.
