Advancing Women in Healthcare through Leadership Project


Atlanta resident Stacy Chick is the chief commercial officer at Inivata, Inc. In addition to her work with Inivata, Inc., Stacy Chick is involved with the Atlanta chapter of the Healthcare Businesswomen’s Association (HBA). Stacy Cick has been involved with HBA Metro and Atlanta chapters since its inception and served as an Executive Steering Committee member in 2006-2008.

HBA is an international non-profit comprised of professionals across the industry. Established in the late 1970s, the HBA developed from a need for women to organize and exchange industry information. Its mission is four-pronged, focusing on gender parity, networking, and effective business practices.

One of the ways this mission is carried out is through the HBA Leadership Project for MLRC (medical, legal, regulatory, and compliance) activities which focuses on four pillars. The first objective is to create a collaborative community of women (professionals) within healthcare. The project also focuses on a core strategy within HBA to exchange information among female healthcare professionals.

Other strategies include providing women with tools that will help them with career advancement (i.e. career coaching and mentoring). Finally, the project’s objectives include sharing and integrating insights from developmental programs.

Those visiting the HBA Leadership Project’s website can find more resources. In addition to articles, visitors can view podcasts on related topics.
