Jackson Healthcare
Atlanta Area
I'm proud to lead Jackson Healthcare, a family of 15 highly specialized healthcare staffing, search and technology companies powered by more than 2,000 associates and over 15,000 clinician providers that cover all 50 states. Our company was founded in 2000 and is privately held with annual revenue of more than $2 billion. Our mission is to improve the delivery of patient care and the lives of everyone we touch, including the nonprofit world, which we invest in through our LoveLifts community impact initiatives. I'm passionate about workplace culture and leaders who have, or are seeking, their purpose and who are leading with intention. I'm often on the conference circuit on the topics of culture, leadership, values and purpose—and I chronicled my journey to discovering and articulating a philosophy on workplace culture in a 2018 book, Fostering Culture: A Leader’s Guide to Purposefully Shaping Culture.
How often do you say, “I need to do this...” just before shifting your focus to something completely different from what you were doing before?
A resume tells you what a person has done, not why they did it.
Do your part as a leader to model, demonstrate, and respond to the needs of those around you in ways that can ease the struggles that so many face.
There is tremendous risk to an individual who is lulled into the false notion that they will be happier if they stop trying.
Our companies provide healthcare systems, hospitals and medical facilities of all sizes with the skilled and specialized labor and technologies they need to deliver high quality patient care and achieve the best possible outcomes — while connecting healthcare professionals to the temporary engagements, contract assignments and permanent placement employment opportunities they desire. Jackson Healthcare was founded by our Chairman and CEO Rick Jackson and began based on a simple principle — that talented professionals with a shared purpose can improve the lives of patients, families, communities and each other. Over the past two decades, we’ve expanded through a blend of acquisition and organic growth. Today, our family of companies includes 15 businesses that are leaders in their markets and trusted partners to those they serve.
