Today’s spotlight: Pam Kehaly
Title: CEO, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona
Background: Kehaly is responsible for the strategic direction and financial health of the 1,500 employee company. With more than 30 years in the health insurance industry, she is committed to supporting BCBSAZ’s mission by helping residents across the state achieve optimal health.
Best decision: “Leaving my role as director of operations for the sales department. There was no immediate need for me to leave — I was doing well and learning new things. But I learned pushing yourself purposefully out of your comfort zone is good personally, and professionally it almost always opens doors to new opportunities you did not even know existed.”
