Known for its friendly work environment, leaders at this large hospital system make rounds in the middle of the night to keep in touch with staff. And when the organization recently acquired two hospitals with more than 1,100 employees, CEO Dr. Marc Boom conducted multiple town hall meetings and provided an email address for the new employees to ask questions. The response time was less than 30 minutes each for the hundreds of questions received.
