Tina Gajda

Founder & Principal Consultant

With nearly 30 years of leadership experience spanning healthcare, business operations, human resources, organizational development, executive search, and strategic consulting, Tina Gajda helps organizations solve complex challenges, strengthen operations, and move forward with confidence.

Throughout her career, Tina has built a reputation for stepping into organizations during periods of transition, uncertainty, or rapid growth and quickly identifying what others often overlook. Whether advising a medical practice on revenue cycle strategy, leading an executive search, strengthening organizational operations, resolving complex people challenges, or helping professionals navigate career transitions, she brings a thoughtful, collaborative approach grounded in practical solutions and lasting results.

Before founding Willow Tree Strategies & Solutions, Tina spent more than two decades in media leadership before transitioning into healthcare administration, operations, and human resources leadership. Those experiences shaped a consulting philosophy that extends beyond any single discipline. Rather than viewing operational, financial, and people challenges separately, Tina understands how each influences organizational success and works to build solutions that strengthen the organization as a whole.

Today, Willow Tree Strategies & Solutions partners with healthcare practices, nonprofit organizations, privately held businesses, and professionals seeking experienced guidance through meaningful change. Services include Revenue Cycle Management and Practice Advisory, Organizational & Operational Leadership, Human Resources Consulting, Executive Search, Career Transition & Positioning Consulting, and strategic business advisory services.

Clients value Tina's ability to learn new industries quickly, ask the right questions, simplify complex problems, and remain actively engaged through implementation—not simply deliver recommendations. Her work combines strategic thinking with hands-on partnership, helping organizations improve operations, develop leaders, strengthen workplace cultures, and create sustainable systems that support long-term success.

At the heart of Willow Tree is a simple belief:

Every organization has challenges. The right partner helps you discover opportunities within them.

Whether serving as a trusted advisor, project leader, interim resource, or strategic consultant, Tina's goal remains the same: helping people and organizations move forward with confidence.

Tina earned a Bachelor of Science in Organizational Leadership and a Master of Science in Human Resource Management from Southern New Hampshire University, graduating with honors.
