​
Throughout Africa we commonly see a separation in the culture of healthcare workers. The leaders are isolated at the top and the team feels helpless at the bottom. At Karen Nel Consulting, we work on bridging the gap between healthcare workers and leadership by providing end-to-end solutions to change the culture and team dynamics of the hospital and create a business acumen approach in every activity. We offer Healthcare leadership and Business Acumen Development programs tailored for Healthcare in Africa and do personal and team development through personalised coaching programmes. We facilitate innovation programs to grow the healthcare teams into disruptive thinkers.
Do your healthcare leaders know how to demonstrate business acumen daily?​
​
Who looks after the leaders while the leaders look after everyone else?​
​​
Healthcare providers, especially in Africa, face challenges ranging from poor clinical outcomes and uninspired staff to financial results that put additional pressure on profit margins. We guide and assist healthcare leaders by implementing practical solutions that inspire staff, improve clinical outputs, and positively impact their bottom line.
Our consulting services are tailor-made according to your needs, and should you need us onsite for several months, we will be there. Your needs are our top priority. We take a hands-on approach to each project we undertake, displaying the leadership and guidance needed to create healthcare success that will impact patients and your bottom line.
ARE YOU A HEALTHCARE GROUP EXECUTIVE?
As a businessperson in an environment such as healthcare, it can feel isolating to be the only person among many who needs to analyse profits and achieve business success.
Do you feel pressured between the board's expectations and the staff's needs?
Do you feel frustrated because everyone talks and talks, but there are no results — change is never implemented?
Do you feel lonely at the top? ...
This is common among executives and if you relate to it then our free 30-minute coaching call might be precisely what you need
ARE YOU A MATRON OR SENIOR HEALTHCARE LEADER?
All the expectations placed upon senior healthcare workers, such as matrons, can seem immense.
Are you tired - tired of the conflict, the negativity, and not having staff?
Do you feel powerless because you are excluded from the boardroom conversations about finances, profits and the bottom line?
Are you frustrated because nurses don't have pride in their work anymore?
Are you scared because the load is so big?
These feelings are shared by all healthcare leaders, and the solution to all your problems may just be found right here in a free 30-minute coaching session.
ARE YOU AN UPCOMING HEALTH PROFESSIONAL?
The absolute bone-deep tiredness you feel as an upcoming healthcare professional is one that very few understand.
Are you ready to fight for your career and place in the industry, but it always backfires?
Are you frustrated because the answer is always "No"?
Are you disappointed in the system, disappointed in the people, and disappointed with the career and future you thought you had?
If you're ready to rise to the occasion and stop hearing "No," we are here to help you with a 30-minute free, no-obligation coaching session.

What is Business Acumen
Business Acumen combines knowledge, skills, and experience that enable individuals to understand business situations, make sound decisions, and drive successful outcomes for an organisation. The four components of any organisation form the foundation of business acumen: operations, Revenue generation, Human Resources, and Finances.
​
Our Business Acumen Simulation program, tailor-made for Healthcare in Africa, will help healthcare leaders understand Business Acumen and how their daily decisions impact the company's bottom line.

As we undertook the biggest project in our law firm’s history, we briefed Karen to manage and drive this very intricate and complex journey. I can honestly say that Karen is one of the top three most focused, professional, punctual and goal-driven individuals I have ever met in life. To say “she gets things done” is the understatement of the century.
