Interview with Tara Darnell, Sutter Health VP of Talent Acquisition & Workforce Planning. Have you had a career-defining moment? This is a tough one, to define ājust oneā moment. A few years ago, I reported to a leader who inspired me to really move my ideas into action. I had been relentlessly researching how to shift from a reactive function to a proactive and strategic TA function and continually stressed to him the importance of incorporating workforce planning into our model. He acknowledged the need and encouraged me to design it and propose to him and the leadership team. At the time I didnāt realize that something that was ājust my ideaā could come to fruition with the sponsorship and advocacy from the right leaders. This was a defining moment for me because it was the beginning of the shift of all the great momentum weāve seen over the last couple of years. Our structure is now the āgold standardā in the industry! What messages do you tell yourself when you are facing adversity? When faced with adversity I keep my values and my why at the center of all I do. At times Iāve felt like an imposter in a room where Iām not sure I belong or presenting in an environment where I donāt think people care to hear what I have to say. Then I remember why I am here in my role at Sutter, because of my passion in caring for people with love. With that as a guiding principle, anything is possible. This Women's History Month, let's celebrate the women who paved the way.
