Kevin Langkiet, PhD, MSN, RN

Kevin is a nursing executive with more than twenty years of upper-level leadership experience across large, complex health systems — most recently as Director for Cardiovascular and Critical Care Services at Mercy Health Anderson Hospital, overseeing CVICU, MICU, PCU, cath and EP labs, respiratory therapy, and the emergency department.

He has repeatedly served as interim Chief Nursing Officer within the Kaiser Permanente system, led a full EHR implementation across 21 acute care facilities in six months, directed a hospital’s transition from Level III to Level I Trauma Center designation in twelve months, and managed nursing budgets exceeding $40 million — all while protecting staffing ratios through a national nursing shortage.

His leadership style is rooted in authentic, servant leadership — leading from the floor, not from behind a desk. This is the same approach he brings to every coaching relationship: direct, invested, and grounded in what actually works inside a hospital system.

Kevin coaches leaders at every stage of that climb — the charge nurse stepping into her first Manager title, the Director preparing for a VP or CNO interview, and the new graduate trying to turn a fresh MSN, DNP, or PhD into an actual promotion instead of just a line on a resume.
