Michelle Moorman’s first day with Avant Healthcare, part of Real Chemistry, was in June 2015. After 8 years working in logistics and meeting planning within the pharmaceutical industry, she was excited to continue her career, this time focusing on medical education and awareness. However, 2 weeks into her new gig, she found herself asking to take time off — and receiving immediate support. “My job has always had such a family feeling to it, and it was also a role where you got to work on your why, which is ultimately helping the patients. And for each of us, that looks different, but in joining Avant I experienced both components firsthand, right as I started.” She shares, "Just a couple weeks after starting, my mom fell ill and was diagnosed with sepsis. The very first person I turned to was Trina Stonner (Group President, Medical Communications). I hadn’t even met her at that point; I just knew of her and her past as an advance practice nurse. But she walked me through sepsis, what it was, and what questions I should ask at the hospital. She also told me to go be with my mom, immediately – the work could wait.” Michelle knew in that moment she had found her new home. The stars aligned personally and professionally, and she has never looked back. And while over the years there have been challenges, changes, and opportunities, she's seen consistent thought and care put into the people and culture, changing colleagues into a community. And 4 months into working at Real Chemistry, after the acquisition of Avant, she believes the same. From the very first meeting where the news was shared to meeting her new colleagues, she's continued to see the care put into each decision. “You see all the change and you worry about growing pains, but it’s enlightening to see how people care. Because you can get lost going from 250 people to 2000, but so far I’ve not felt that at all. I see and feel the same culture.” #LifeatRealChem https://bit.ly/3xPU8mW
I’ve enjoyed working with you since day 1 of onboarding!!! Class of ‘15 is pretty epic 😉
I am so thankful I get to work directly with and learn from Michelle Moorman each day at Real Chemistry ❤️
What a rock star! You touch everyone you meet!
I’m so happy Michelle received the support she deserved in that moment! Regrettably, not all of us received the same level of support under similar circumstances at Avant, now part of Real Chemistry. Leadership really is everything.
Count me as one of many who love Michelle Moorman! And we both believe in the power of pink!
Michelle is a gem, you are fortunate to have her!!
Love this, Michelle Moorman! So lucky to have worked with you for years!
