Strategy and Transformation

Make the right calls at key inflection points, so you can challenge the status quo, accelerate growth, and deliver on your strategic goals.

The Challenge

Healthcare is experiencing one of the most volatile periods in history. Rapid disruption, staffing challenges, and a constantly shifting regulatory environment has made leading in healthcare more challenging than ever. Senior executives and investors recognize the need for an experienced guide to help them lead through critical decisions and uncertain times.

Our Impact

Even when leaders have a clear vision, organizations experiencing rapid disruption can struggle to understand the new direction and the roles they play.

Entrepreneurs, executives, and investors partner with FMG Leading at key inflection points, helping them craft a roadmap for change and a strategic narrative that reignites a sense of shared purpose throughout their organization.

Make the Right Calls

Using proven and actionable methods backed by over 40 years of business experience, we help leaders evaluate the current state of their business and ensure they are positioned to execute on a change plan aligned with broader strategic goals.

By optimizing the people side of strategy, you can build the focus required to improve outcomes, grow faster, and make the healthcare system work, better.

What Leaders Say About Us

““My experience with FMG Leading transcends two decades and now three separate successful scaled health care service providers (DaVita, Surgical Care Affiliates, Ivy Rehab), each of which involved complete strategic, cultural and talent overhauls. I trust the team at FMG Leading in a very rare way. They are good people that share my personal and professional values and are extremely talented business partners."

"The strategic capabilities FMG Leading brings to the table can truly help you and your executive team be more effective and lead rapid scale. I don’t think we could have accomplished what we did in such a short period of time without having experienced thinkers and advisors guiding us. The FMG Leading team really felt like partners on our change journey – both in upgrading our HR function and helping me lead more strategically as CEO."

“Cultural change and rapid growth are two very difficult goals for a company with new ownership and management to achieve on their own. FMG Leading helped us prepare and plan in advance for the most challenging phases of this change, easing the stress on the organization. We continue to invest in our human capital because a critical aspect of our business is helping clinicians and physicians become better leaders.”

"FMG Leading’s Human Capital Index workshop enabled Medsurant Holdings to uncover the pitfalls in our human capital strategy, and come together as an executive team to begin building a much stronger organization."

"When it comes to the rapid growth expectations associated with taking on an investor for the first time, sometimes you simply don't know what you don't know. Taking on a private equity partner requires you to look at things a little bit differently - you have to keep up with the pace and upgrade your skills so you can make the best possible decisions. The team at FMG Leading helped us effectively navigate that course, and our partnership allowed us to grow into a place where our executive team was aligned and moving in lock-step with our board."

Success Story

Integrated Outcomes

Experts in helping their clients improve care management practices, Health Integrated struggled to evolve its own operations. The conflict and negativity within the Executive Team had brought the company to a near standstill, and the embedded culture was not conducive to growth.

Success Story

From Great Doctors to Great Leaders

CEO Rob Bessler, MD of Sound Physicians identified physician leadership quality as a key strategic differentiator in the company’s growth strategy. Armed with employee survey data calling for in-hospital leaders with both clinical backgrounds and well-developed interpersonal skills, they committed to design and implement a transformative physician leader development program that would teach the fundamental leadership skills not taught in medical school. From this initiative, the “Chief Summit Initiative” was born.

From Development to Deloitte U.

When Maritza G. Montiel was appointed Regional Managing Partner for Deloitte’s Central Atlantic Region, she enlisted FMG Leading’s support as she began designing strategies to improve the collaboration, alignment, and performance of her new team.

The partnership, however, developed into something much greater: the creation of ‘Deloitte University’, a dedicated campus and curriculum focused on creating the professional services leaders of tomorrow.

Success Story

From Ledge To Life

In 1999, DaVita was known as Total Renal Care, the result of 3 poorly integrated prior mergers. They were only weeks from insolvency when Kent Thiry took over as CEO. The company he inherited was characterized by 52% annual turnover, poor patient experiences, flat revenues, and reeling profits. FMG Leading was engaged with the complex task of simultaneously addressing both culture and operations. The result of this partnership was a healthcare culture widely considered the best in the industry.

Success Story

Peak Pediatric Performance

When Paul Viviano arrived at Children’s Hospital Los Angeles as the new President and CEO, the hospital faced a unique opportunity to refresh and revitalize the performance, eminence and culture of the already globally renowned and nationally-ranked hospital. Driving forces included external pressures in healthcare (especially those of a “safety net” provider), unique features of academic medicine, and the need to build greater agility into a proud, patient-focused culture.

Success Story

Compassionate Transformation

Grams enlisted the partnership of FMG Leading to guide Compassus on this journey.
