Pennsylvania American Water’s Kara Rahn, who was recently promoted to Director of Organizational Change Management, has been named as one of City and State’s Above & Beyond Award Recipients, writes Hilary Danailova for the outlet.
Formerly the Senior Manager of Government and External Affairs at Pennsylvania American Water, Rahn’s exceptional communication skills stood out during pivotal moments such as overseeing significant hand-ballot recounts and adapting to changing regulatory environments in corporate utilities.
