About Renee Sharp

I am a dynamic and visionary healthcare leader and consultant with extensive experience leading high-impact initiatives across acute care, emergency services, urgent care, and complex health systems. Throughout my career, I have consistently delivered measurable results by optimizing operations, improving patient outcomes, and driving multimillion-dollar cost savings through strategic process redesign and data-driven decision-making. My expertise spans clinical and operational leadership, project management, and culture transformation. At Ascension, I led national teams and market-level collaboratives that reduced surgical never events, decreased ED door-to-provider times to under 10 minutes, and transformed urgent care centers from a $25M annual loss to profitability in just 15 months. I also spearheaded system-wide efforts to improve care for vulnerable populations, including human trafficking victims, and helped standardize physician contracts, decreasing millions in subsidies. In consulting roles, I have partnered with healthcare systems to implement scalable solutions in staffing, quality improvement, and financial turnaround, while serving in interim leadership positions to ensure operational continuity and transformation. I thrive in complex environments that demand both strategic thinking and operational execution. Whether mentoring emerging leaders, aligning stakeholders, or launching national performance initiatives, I bring a passion for excellence, innovation, and creating sustainable change in healthcare delivery.
