Sukanya Soderland, MBA
Sukanya is a partner at Oliver Wyman with 25 years of experience as a consulting leader and former C‑suite executive, helping organizations transform business models, design and execute innovative strategies, and drive profitable growth.
She works collaboratively with executive teams from companies across the healthcare landscape on enterprise strategy, organizational design, omnichannel consumer experience, product launch, partnerships and mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and AI-enabled operating model transformation. Sukanya pairs forward-thinking vision with deep analytical rigor, focusing on clear execution and capability building to turn complex problems into practical solutions.
Across client engagements, Sukanya has delivered measurable outcomes: she led a transformation that cut run-rate operating expenses by 30% and nearly doubled the operating margin for a $30 billion health business; repositioned a $5 billion population-health company into a market leader through medical-behavioral integration; and returned an ACA business to profitability within a year. As chief strategy officer at Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts, she directed strategy, innovation, capital allocation, and the buildout of enterprise data, artificial intelligence (AI), and advanced-analytics capabilities, and helped launch a new joint-venture company, EvioRx, to address rising prescription drug costs. Sukanya originally joined the firm out of undergrad and was one of the founding members of the Health and Life Sciences Practice and the Oliver Wyman Health Innovation Center (OWHIC).
