Cultivating a Culture of Supply Chain Excellence
Are you satisfied with your organization’s supply chain progress? Often, the missing piece isn’t strategy, but culture. Culture represents the alignment between your processes, systems, and vision.

“What exactly is culture, and how can it help my organization thrive?"
Culture is the alignment between your processes, systems, and the vision you’ve set for your organization. With a clear vision in place, everything within your organization should drive you closer to that goal.
Imagine how much smoother things could run if you developed the right culture:
-No more second-guessing of tasks
-Happy, motivated, and productive employees
-No wasted time on unnecessary processes
-Exponential growth that aligns with your vision
-Attraction and retention of top talent in your industry
This is just a glimpse of what’s possible when you create and implement a culture that supports your organization’s success.

This program offers a comprehensive curriculum, practical application skills and materials , and a collaborative learning environment. The 7-step framework provides a clear roadmap for streamlining procurement processes and maximizing value.
Angelique' expertise and passion make the program both informative and enjoyable. Don't miss the opportunity to excel in strategic sourcing and contracting with this exceptional program. This program made me feel well prepared for my strategic sourcing role!"
Ike Duran
Director of Supply Chain Sourcing & Procurement, Seattle Children's
"I had the pleasure of working with Angelique for approximately two years at Legacy Health during my tenure as the System Director of Supply Chain Operations.
During that time Angelique was the Director of Supply Chain overseeing the Strategic Sourcing and Procurement teams.
I thoroughly enjoyed my time working with Angelique at Legacy Health and came to know her as a truly capable and valuable partner to our organization. Angelique also brings with her an outstanding reputation within the Healthcare industry, which is only matched by her impressive understanding of Supply Chain processes.
One of her greatest accomplishments was developing and building her leadership teams which allowed her to redefine the approach to Strategic Sourcing, which allowed Legacy Health to become a leading example in the Oregon Healthcare arena."
Trent Larsen
Director, Supply Chain Logistics
Legacy Health
"Angelique is a strategic thinker who develops teams and workflows to elevate businesses. I have witnessed this firsthand, collaborating with her on our journey toward a clinically integrated supply chain at Legacy Health.
Using A3 lean processes, Angelique built the SSESC (Supplies and Services Executive Steering Committee), and gained CFO approval to add 15 staff members to support a complete CVA (Clinical Value Analysis) rebuild. As co-chair of the SSESC, she devolved leader knowledge on how to build a clinically integrated supply chain.
Over the course of one year, long standing cultures shifted through consistent use of a purposefully designed email follow up process, including action items and member accountability.
Service line CVA nurse staff was added to support and maintain program standard work. Six system level and seven hospital/non acute site level CVA committees were developed and launched under the governance of the revamped CVA Program. CMO, CNO, clinical VP’s, directors and managers, as well as front line staff regularly attend CVA committee meetings. Data Analytics maintains an initiative compliance and implementation tracker for system and site level accountability, reviewed at each monthly CVA meetings.
Angelique’s work earned her the GHXellence Award for innovation in rebuilding Legacy’s CVA Program and governance structure. She also shared her successes speaking at the GHX Summit 2022, Vizient Summit 2022, AHVAP 2022, and WSHMMA 2023."

"I am writing to express my sincere admiration and gratitude for the exceptional leadership and mentorship I received during my tenure at MedStar Health. I am privileged to have had the opportunity to work closely with you and I consider you an invaluable asset to any organization.
During my time at MedStar, you consistently exhibited exemplary leadership qualities that set you apart. You possess an exceptional ability to inspire your team, encouraging a "fail forward" mentality where mistakes are viewed as opportunities for learning and improvement.
The belief in the potential of everyone on your team and willingness to provide guidance even during challenging times, like the COVID pandemic, were instrumental in my professional development.
One notable aspect of your leadership style is your remarkable sense of humor, which not only lightened the workplace but also created an atmosphere of camaraderie and positivity. Your ability to inject levity and even the fictitious FTE named “Skippy” into stressful situations helped us maintain perspective and navigate through challenges with resilience and determination. I believe this approach contributed greatly to our team's cohesiveness and success.
Under your leadership, I witnessed firsthand the remarkable results that can be achieved when a leader instills a strong work ethic and a culture of excellence. Your remarkable combination of humor, approach-ability, and high standards make you an extraordinary leader. I have utmost respect for you and am grateful for the invaluable impact they have had on my professional journey."

When she joined our organization her position was a newly created role. She hit the ground running in developing a long term strategic vision for Supply Chain across the entire organization that brought together 10 acute and numerous non-acute sites.
Her ability to manage & lead multiple complex projects helped our organization through one of the most difficult times where she led with kindness and grace while expecting the best from the entire team.
She is one of only a few leaders in my healthcare career that has left a lasting impression.

She is methodical in her approach toward planning and organizing weekly requirements and sets up the proper monitoring capabilities to ensure performance is met and when unmet, deploys improvement paths to correct.

Angelique is a gifted and empathetic leader who cares deeply about building strong relationships with her team and the members of her organization that she serves. I had the pleasure of working with Angelique as her client executive from Vizient supporting her healthcare organization for several years and notably through the pandemic. Not only did I work closely with Angelique on projects but was fortunate to see her leadership skills as she built and mentored a team of supply chain operational leaders.
Angelique possesses deep industry knowledge and has a passion for the patients her health system cares for. She leverages her strong relationships and skills for strategic planning and leadership to build success.
One successful endeavor was to create “One Supply Chain” across 10 hospitals and over 300 team members.
