Mary Lee Gannon, CAE is the president of Gannon Group
and has a vast background of turnaround successes in the fields
of:

Healthcare: Mary Lee has served the for-profit and non-profit side
of healthcare and other businesses since she began her career
in the Houston Medical Center. As a manager within the
Ophthalmology Department of Hermann Hospital she began to
see very early the dynamics of a hospital, its professionals, its
patients and their families, its administrators and its vendors.  

Communications and Public Relations: Later working as a
journalist for major metropolitan newspapers who covered
healthcare and other business, she analyzed opposing sides of
issues as they related to the needs of consumers and
stakeholders.  Mary Lee has served as the public relations
director for organizations that include medical services and device
companies, medical offices, school districts, professional
associations, and more, scripting executives on key issues and
securing media attention.

Sales: As a Sandler trained sales professional selling to
companies in the healthcare and other sectors she created
solutions that increased business and overcame obstacles.  

Association Management: Moving on to become the executive
director of a trade association and earning the distinction of
Certified Association Executive (CAE) she learned to build
consensus and advance mission in order to increase trade show
attendance by 150% and membership by 40%.  She is the past
president of the Pittsburgh Society of Association Executives.  

Personal Turnaround: Mary Lee’s personal turnaround was as a
stay-at-home mother, with four children under seven-years-old,
who endured a divorce that took she and the children from the
country club life to public assistance from where within a short
time she worked out of that to the level of CEO.

Fundraising: A strong vision, specific strategies and accountability
are what guided her to reinvent her life as a chief executive officer
in hospital fundraising.  She has served three hospitals in this
capacity with demonstrated success as a change agent using the
principles of operational excellence.  Her last capital campaign
raised $10.4 million.

Non-Profit Management:  Mary Lee has served in the roles of
president, executive director and president and CEO of non-profit
organizations with assets of up to $26 million and actively serves
on the boards of directors of several non-profit organizations.

Strategic Direction/Meeting Facilitation/Consensus Building:  
Throughout her career in her roles as CEO and president of other
boards of directors Mary Lee has facilitated hundreds of
meetings, retreats and planning sessions.  She has built
consensus among staff and volunteers and created and executed
strategic plans that have advanced organizations.  

Operational Excellence - A Culture of Rapid Change: Mary Lee
has created programs from scratch and turned around programs
that were floundering.  Utilizing operational excellence strategies,
identifying key metrics and building a team around those metrics
has enabled her to create cultures for rapid change.  This along
with her years of executive leadership experience working with
large organizations in healthcare and other industries are what
she specifically brings to her coaching.  She helps executives and
leaders create accountability tools that result in a measurable
difference in their own lives and the lives of those they lead.
