EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT
DESCRIBE THE COMPANY CULTURE IN ONE WORD
Open. Everyone I’ve worked with is open to helping others Everyone I’ve worked with is receptive to new ideas and looking at things in a different way. I have been able to change the way data is handled and reports are submitted during my time on the care delivery team.

WHAT BROUGHT ABOUT YOUR INTEREST IN HEALTHCARE?
Talking to people with significant or even insignificant health issues and hearing about the difficulties they face with these issues. This is something that continually motivates me, and I see it as the universe saying there is still work to be done.

How has working at TKG fostered your leadership skills?
The culture here is very understanding and acceptive of individual needs. After becoming a mother and coming back from maternity leave, I was able to balance family and work without having to comprise either. The flexibility at TKG allows me to take on new responsibilities as I advance my career but still care for my daughter. In addition, I am currently part of a new Leadership Program at TKG which has been an engaging and insightful experience and has given me frameworks and models to build and enhance my ability to manage teams.

WHAT ARE THE VALUES THAT DRIVE YOU?
I would say I’m fairly competitive – especially with myself. Ensuring I am delivering results that reflect my best effort is always important. Being on the care delivery side, I often get to make my own decisions and interpret things for myself. This engages me more in my work and makes me more invested in the outcome.

AS THE COMPANY CONTINUES TO GROW, WHERE DO YOU SEE TKG IN 5 YEARS?
We will be that boutique agency that has made a name for itself. I don’t see us apart of a big conglomerate but more as a team that has stood out amongst the noise and as an agency that has enabled change.

IF YOU COULD DESCRIBE THE CULTURE OF THE COMPANY IN A WORD WHAT WOULD IT BE?
Authentic. The way the people at TKG spoke about their work and each other was something I noticed right away. It was very apparent that TKG consists of a genuine team of people who care for each other as much as their jobs.

WHY IS TKG NECESSARY WITHIN THE HEALTHCARE SPACE?
TKG offers a vast knowledge of the healthcare space. Few companies have a side of their business that develops strategies for pharma, payers, health systems – and even solo providers. TKG touches on all aspects of healthcare and tackles our clients’ challenges head on.

WHAT IS ONE OF YOUR FAVORITE MEMORIES AT TKG?
In 2006, we ran an HIV program in Atlanta. We tested homeless individuals living in the greater Atlanta area for their HIV status. We worked with some of the churches down there so that anyone that tested positive with the rapid-HIV test was immediately housed within the churches so that they didn’t go back out on the streets. It was impactful not only doing this but also working with the people that were involved on this project day in and day out. It just goes to show that the people are the fabric of TKG and they are the biggest part of those memories.
