Leadership Lessons From CEOs of Healthcare Companies

Each Operating Company built at Redesign Health is led by a CEO who sets the vision for the company and defines the overall strategy from launch to scale. While CEOs of companies built at Redesign Health come from various leadership roles and backgrounds, these leaders consistently display an action-oriented mentality, with a track record of consistently achieving results — even under challenging circumstances.

We’ve asked a few leaders to share insights and lessons learned while building businesses across the healthcare ecosystem.

Here’s what they had to say:

Back in April, we asked Kyle Talcott, Co-Founder and CEO of UpLift, about his decision-making process and keys to building a collaborative internal culture. UpLift is building a future where a primary mental health provider is the new standard.

Amy Shecter, CEO of Ever/Body, shared her advice on thoughtful, effective leadership. Ever/Body provides cosmetic dermatology for every tone, texture, age, gender, and body.

Jon Cooper, Co-Founder and CEO of Overalls, recalls his first 100 days of building the modern benefits company as challenging and rewarding all at the same time. Overalls is a modern benefits company that combines concierge-like services with tailored financial protection products in a delightful experience designed to save time, celebrate milestones, and protect the things we care about.

Similar to Jon, Cynthia Benjamin, CEO and Co-Founder of Together Senior Health, shared the need to fully understand your customer or patient in order to best serve their needs. Together Senior Health is a digital therapeutic and community platform dedicated to helping people with Alzheimer’s and dementia remain healthy and independent at home.

Lastly, Dan Smith, Founder and CEO of Kins, left us with inspiring advice to constantly and actively pursue the innovative ideas that will help redesign healthcare as we know it. Kins is modernizing physical therapy by combining the best of in-person care with the power of digital.

The Redesign Health team is focused on the belief that the only way to change healthcare is at scale. The more companies built at Redesign, the more high-quality experiences we can bring to people and patients, and the more likely we are to have a tangible impact on our healthcare system.
