Bio
Scott Haas
Angela has tremendous strategic vision. In her time at UPMC Health Plan, she has demonstrated the ability to partner with key leaders across the company to drive needed change. She leverages her depth of health care knowledge and diverse background to diagnose problems and root causes, and create strategies to successfully drive better alignment through connecting the organizational dots.
Ellen Beckjord, PhD, MPH
You learn from some people by having them as a mentor and from others just by watching them. I consider myself fortunate to learn from Angela in both of these ways. She is a profound leader with a communication style that makes every moment with her a "teachable moment." She engenders a sense of trust in others by balancing guidance with autonomy. She is a powerful combination of courageous, calm, and confident. She is approachable and generous with her time. She's that rare bird who is a "Jack (Jane?) of All Trades" with deep of knowledge in her broad array of competencies. I am grateful to have the opportunity to learn from Angela's knowledge, her leadership style, and her example.
