About Kevin

I’m Kevin Pannell, an enterprise healthcare transformation leader focused on portfolio execution and sustainable change. My career spans military medicine, public safety, and healthcare IT, from serving as a U.S. Navy Hospital Corpsman in critical care to leading emergency response teams and guiding PMOs in complex health systems. Those experiences shaped how I lead, with calm under pressure, clear intent, and a focus on work that actually sticks. I share those lessons through writing, podcasting, and teaching.

The Stability Equation

Life does not fall apart all at once. Often it unravels when we stop owning our choices, moving our bodies, and anchoring our spirit. In The Stability Equation: 7 Pillars for a More Balanced Life, Kevin Pannell shares hard lessons from the Navy, public safety, and leadership to show how seven simple pillars can rebuild balance and strength. This book is not theory, it is a practical path for anyone who wants to create lasting stability in the middle of life’s chaos.

Project Progress

Projects do not fail because of tools or charts, they fail when people are misaligned, processes are unclear, and progress is not measured. The People, Process, and Progress of Project Management gives leaders a practical playbook to bring order to complexity by focusing first on people, then aligning process, and finally driving measurable progress. Drawing from lessons in healthcare, public safety, and enterprise IT, Kevin Pannell shows how to apply proven practices across any environment. This book is for anyone who wants to move beyond managing tasks to leading teams and delivering real results.
