In addition, Keri Eisenbeis, who was vice president for Government and Community Relations, has been promoted to senior vice president of Corporate Relations and also now serves as Chief of Staff for Conners, who became BayCare’s fourth CEO on Nov. 28. Eisenbeis, in her new role, provides strategic support for Conners while also leading BayCare’s external affairs with a focus on government relations, strategic communications, community benefit and broader community partnerships.
“As I visited more than 50 BayCare facilities in my first 45 days, I experienced first-hand the impact our extraordinary team has on all we serve,” said Conners. “My goal in promoting these established leaders is to elevate their influence as we work together to make BayCare the best place to receive care, the best place to provide care and the best place to work.”
