Today's guest is Katie Lawrence, MHA, CMPE

Katie has nearly 20 years of experience in executive leadership and change management. Her passion is simple: to be the catalyst for leaders as they create change in their organizations and flourishing in all aspects of their lives.

Katie is currently the principal consultant with Willow Strategy Group*. She has over 20 years of experience in healthcare, including independent practices, a fully integrated health system, and a private equity backed accountable care organization. Katie has scaled care models across a state-wide footprint and centralized referrals to a single call center for a medical practice of 2500+ providers. She has also worked with individuals and teams to develop their own leadership skills, improving workplace dynamics, and optimizing workflows for the betterment of patients and clinicians alike.

Katie holds an undergraduate degree in Economics and Spanish from Furman University and a Masters in Health Administration from the Medical University of SC. She holds a Certified Medical Practice Executive (CMPE) through the Medical Group Management Association. She is currently pursuing a doctorate in Leadership Psychology from William James College.

Willow Strategy Group was founded to revitalize healthcare leaders and teams, empowering them to future-forward thinking and performance. As the pace of business and ever-present change accelerates, the clinical and clerical skills that healthcare leaders learned at the beginning of their careers are no longer sufficient for leading teams to optimize productivity while maintaining employee well-being.

Willow Strategy Group integrates evidence-based solutions grounded in the neurobiology of leadership and organizational psychology with decades of healthcare leadership experience to provide leaders and teams with practical skills they can implement in their own work. The experts offer:

• training and workshops for teams and/or leaders
