Custom Content from the Los Angeles Business Journal


Effective Leadership Under Pressure

Considering the extremely challenging times we have faced over the last year due to the COVID-19 crisis, it has become particularly evident that solid leadership in the health care sector – which has always been important – has become more essential than ever. Health care professionals help and protect our community…and the leaders of this industry have been tasked with making transformational decisions every day.

There are some particularly stellar health industry stewards in the LA region who happen to be women and we’ve alphabetically listed some of the best of them here, along with some key details and information about their careers and recent successes and stand-out moments they’ve achieved.

The health care leaders listed in these pages were chosen by the Los Angeles Business Journal to be recognized for exceptional stewardship and achievement across the full spectrum of responsibility, exemplary leadership as evidenced by the highest professional and ethical standards, and for contributions to the health and wellbeing of the Los Angeles community at large.

Congratulations to the extraordinary women who made this list and thank you once again for navigating through uncharted territory over the last year and working to keep the people and businesses of Los Angeles protected and healthy in times of need.
