As the first female partner in Kodiak healthcare consulting, Colleen Hall identified the need for a community where women can feel supported in building their professional presence in the healthcare industry. In 2022, she set out to fulfill that need with the Healthcare Women Connexxt program.

The program is open to healthcare professionals – all genders, ages, and experience levels. We believe it is the responsibility of (and ultimately benefits) all individuals to empower and advocate for women’s leadership in the workplace. The goal of Healthcare Women Connexxt is to provide education and support for all those looking to grow their careers in the industry through webinar sessions, mentorship programs, and thought leadership.

A partner is a certified public accountant (CPA) within a U.S. jurisdiction. A principal may hold another designation but is not a CPA. Colleen Hall is a principal at Kodiak Solutions. We refer to the title of partner in this article, because “partners” and “principals” rights and privileges as owners of the firm are the same other than as required by law or regulation. At Kodiak, only CPAs may sign audit opinions for an audited organization.
