LVHN Recognized by Fortune as One of America’s Most Innovative Companies
List includes 300 companies transforming industries through innovation, inspiring leadership and efficient processes, and is LVHN’s latest among several national workforce recognitions
“LVHN embraces innovative approaches to ensure our patients receive the best possible care.” - Brian A. Nester, DO, MBA, President and Chief Executive Officer, LVHN
LVHN made Fortune’s 2023 list of America’s Most Innovative Companies. More than 15,000 companies were evaluated but only 300 were selected. In this ranking, three dimensions of innovation are assessed: product innovation, process innovation and innovation culture.
“LVHN embraces innovative approaches to ensure our patients receive the best possible care,” says Brian A. Nester, DO, MBA, President and Chief Executive Officer, LVHN. “This ensures a modern workforce at LVHN that is agile and able to adapt to health care’s ever-changing landscape. It also means when we take on complex and challenging cases, we provide care that leads to the best possible outcomes for our patients.”
For the evaluation of the innovation culture and the internal view of process innovation, Statista deployed online survey panels where employees could score their own company on a scale system. In total, over 25,000 people participated.
The survey measured how corporate culture promotes creativity and an entrepreneurial spirit, along with how companies improved employee motivation and increased job satisfaction. Survey respondents were also asked how companies increased workplace safety and managed health.
To gauge a company’s innovation in each dimension, Fortune focused on several criteria, including production, sales and marketing, innovations in production and operations strategy, planning and quality assurance. Fortune also graded companies on the development of new technologies or how they made existing technology better.
