He possess expertise in leadership, patient experience, writing, epic telehealth, management and 13 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I have worked with Ken for nearly 10 years and had the pleasure of witnessing Ken's work in multiple roles. I can confidently attest to the fact that Ken will excel in anything he puts his mind to. He is not only brilliant, but his creativity and ability to break down complexities into bite sized pieces is paramount to none. On top of that, he is approachable, kind, and one of the funniest people I have ever met.
Ken has been tackling issues in healthcare as long as I've known him using his deep understanding of Epic and Salesforce. I truly feel this combination of knowledge allows him to see the landscape of how to tackle an issue more than someone attempting to solve issues within a single application. On top of that, he is able to take the fear out of technology for those who are leery of automation in an industry that requires such detailed levels of specificity and comes with so much potential risk. His presentation skills combined with his ability to explain things in a way that are digestible and tailored to his audience make Ken one of the most effective coworkers I've seen when it comes to getting things done. These skills make him the kind of person who is able to get anyone on board, whether it be the C-suite or the IT analyst who wants to ensure they won't be up all night and working weekends trying to get the project done.
One thing I really want to impress upon anyone who has read this far is that while Ken can certainly "talk the talk", it is because he also can "walk the walk". His technical savvy is remarkable, creative, and forward thinking. Ken never will propose something that can't work in reality, and can often get his hands dirty with figuring out the nuts and bolts of configuration. This level of responsibility to solutions is often not found with someone who is also simultaneously innovative and wanting to better the overall healthcare industry.
Lastly, to really round out how highly I think of Ken, I also have to reflect on what a wonderful personality Ken has. He is humble, highly emotionally intelligent, reliable, and genuinely wants those around him to succeed. These skills make him a top tier leader and colleague.
I attribute so much of my career growth to the fortune I've had in working with Ken, and know that wherever Ken goes, success is bound to follow." and "Ken and I worked together helping to establish a new division focused on long term customer success. Ken brought innovative ideas and a positive attitude to day-to-day challenges and helped set the course for how we'd grow and scale the division. He has high standards for his work and leads by example, and I personally leaned on Ken to help brainstorm ideas and push through challenges."
Listed skills include Leadership, Patient Experience, Writing, Epic Telehealth, and 14 others.
