Health Integrated was a Tampa, Florida-based company that helped healthcare providers drive better outcomes, higher satisfaction and lower costs by approaching medical, behavioral, and social health as an integrated whole. They enabled and empower over 5 million patients to stay on-track with care plans, allowing shortened recovery times and reduced re-admissions while improving adherence to care and prescription regimens.

Health Integrated has since been acquired by EXL, a global analytics and digital solutions company serving industries including insurance, healthcare, banking and financial services, media, retail, and others.

Introduction

When growth stalled because leadership wasn't aligned.

Health Integrated was an organization with deep expertise in helping healthcare clients improve care management and operational performance. Yet internally, the company faced significant challenges of its own.

Conflict, negativity, and misalignment within the Executive Team had created organizational silos, slowed decision-making, and brought business momentum to a near standstill. The existing culture was limiting collaboration and preventing the company from achieving its growth potential.

Recognizing the need for transformational change, CEO Shan Padda partnered with FMG Leading to help create a comprehensive leadership development and organizational change strategy that would strengthen alignment, improve performance, and build a culture capable of supporting long-term growth.

Partnership

Creating alignment where barriers once existed.

FMG Leading began by facilitating an Executive Team retreat designed to address long-standing organizational challenges openly and constructively. Through candid conversations and Executive 360° leadership assessments, leaders gained valuable insights into behaviors, perceptions, and patterns that were limiting collaboration and effectiveness.

This process allowed executives to challenge deeply held assumptions, break down organizational silos, and build stronger relationships across the leadership team.

Building on this foundation, FMG Leading designed and delivered customized development initiatives that included executive coaching, leadership team development, service excellence training, and enterprise-wide culture change support. Working closely with senior leaders, FMG Leading also helped design communication strategies that enabled employees throughout the organization to understand, engage with, and support the transformation journey.

Outcomes

A stronger culture produced stronger business results.

As executive alignment improved and a more intentional culture emerged, Health Integrated experienced a significant organizational turnaround. Leaders became more effective, collaboration increased, and the company developed a stronger foundation for growth and performance.

With a high-performing leadership team driving the organization forward, Health Integrated accelerated revenue growth, strengthened operational execution, and successfully positioned itself for future opportunities.
