There is an indescribable feeling when you find out you share a similar background and experiences with another co-worker. You feel like you can be your true self a little more.
Harry Morgenstern
Implementations Director, Sales
SOLUTIONS ORIENTED
Solving complex problems cross-functionally
Each day is different for Harry Morgenstern. One recent cross-functional project connected him to Cedar’s product, engineering and design teams to quickly deploy features to support a client. “The ‘all hands on deck’ approach is not new for Cedarians, but it was invigorating to know I can count on my teammates, even when it’s not their direct responsibility to step in,” Morgenstern said. According to Morgenstern, especially in his role, that solutions-oriented approach is key. “Each healthcare organization we partner with presents new challenges that Cedar can help solve.”
