In this episode of the Inspire Greatness Podcast, I had the opportunity to chat with Leina Ijacic, the inspiring CEO of One Kalakaua Senior Living and Founder of Pacific Health Alliance.
Leina leads Hawaii’s only fee-simple assisted living community and founded a nonprofit dedicated to improving health outcomes across the islands. Her work focuses on “Health as a Continuum,” viewing wellness holistically across mental, physical, spiritual, and community dimensions.
With a background as a Registered Nurse and a Lean Six Sigma Black Belt, Leina has a proven track record of growing large nonprofits and launching critical medical programs for the homeless population. She is widely recognized for her ability to bridge the gap between healthcare and housing to serve the most vulnerable.
During our conversation, Leina discussed her three proven methods for inspiring greatness in team members:
- Leaning into Adversity: How to use challenges as a catalyst for growth and team cohesion.
- The Power of Purpose: Connecting daily tasks to a larger mission to drive engagement and fulfillment.
- Building a Framework for Change: Creating sustainable systems that allow teams to adapt and thrive during transitions.
Tune in to be inspired by Leina’s wisdom and passion!
