I’m pleased to announce that Angela Kutok has accepted the position of Acting Manager, Planning & Performance Improvement, filling in for Jennifer Madahbee while she is away on maternity leave from mid-November 2022 through March 31, 2024.

Angela started with the Hospital in 2002, initially working in the Staffing Office. Since then, she has held positions as an Executive Assistant for the Human Resources portfolio and as Board Liaison where she worked closely with our CEO and Board Chair. In early 2020, Angela joined Strategy & Performance as a Performance Improvement Consultant, and has completed a number of high profile and successful initiatives including support for several COVID-19 response initiatives, identifying and implementing improvements for the Nursing Resource Team and Staffing Office, and implementation of the Voluntary Indigenous Patient Self-identification project. Angela is currently working on the UKG Dimensions staff scheduling project and the search for a patient acuity tool (both of which originated from the NRT and Staffing Office improvement initiative), as well as deployment of the Novari Cardiovascular Pathway.

Angela has training and certification in project management and in LEAN, and is a Business Coaching Advantage Practitioner™. She is people-centred, results-focused, and has a wealth of experience that she fully leverages to do great work and to ensure success for the initiatives she supports.

In her new role, Angela will lead and manage our Performance Improvement staff in supporting the implementation of Strategic Plan 2026 and completion of its 26 initiatives, as well as an ever-growing list of other projects that support the Hospital’s ongoing operations.
Please join me in welcoming Angela to her new role.
