When Dan Herman founded IT/Healthcare consulting firm Aspen Advisors in 2006, he set out to create a firm that would help executives make difficult decisions and manage large-scale technology-enabled projects, particularly on the clinical side, where Aspen strives to help healthcare providers reduce costs and improve patient care. Herman likens the firm's leadership team to a multi-specialty group physician practice, with each bringing a diverse and specific set of skills to the table.
