Episode 52: A Change in Leadership: Building from Within

Succession planning for any organization can present opportunities and, sometimes, challenges. OSF HealthCare has recently undergone leadership changes with an eye to the future.

Host Shelli Dankoff chats with OSF executives Michelle Conger, president, Kirsten Largent, chief financial officer, and Emily Shields, chief strategy officer, about how they are helping guide OSF into the future, grounded in Mission and driven by innovation.

Join us as we discuss their new roles at OSF, highlighting the organization's commitment to developing leaders from within. The conversation touches on each leader’s career journey, the challenges they’ve overcome, especially as women in health care, and how their personal and professional experiences shape their leadership styles. They also reflect on the inspiration drawn from the Sisters who founded OSF and share insights into balancing life beyond the workplace. As they look ahead, they discuss the challenges and opportunities facing OSF and offer advice they’d give their younger selves.
