What Our Clients Say

Consulting & Assessments

Interim Management

“She came into a high volume department with a significant leadership vacuum and quickly established priorities and a process to deal with key issues. In a short time, she built a strong leadership team based on clear communications and expectations for the department. She successfully prepared the department as it searched for a new permanent leader. I would highly recommend Connie for her work in leading leadership transitions in hospital emergency departments.”

MD, CEO, Emergency Physician Practice Management Group

“Connie is a visionary and experienced leader who can work both as an internal and external leader to advance an organization’s mission.”

accreditation & survey readiness

We were in an organizational turnaround with a need to improve clinical quality as well as financial effectiveness. We also needed to improve employee accountability and engagement.”

Vice President, HR for Hospital Health System

“During her tenure, she worked with the leadership team to restore the trauma designation, implement an interventional cardiology program, and achieved the first designated stroke center in the State of Delaware. I would recommend Connie's consulting for any organization implementing change.”

Vice President, HR for Hospital Health System

"Constance Donovan assisted Central Iowa Healthcare this winter with two back-to-back EMTALA violations. We were able to make our revisit with her assistance. She was vital to our success."

leadership, management & Talent Development
