Karen Hoffman Tepper, PhD, president and CEO, Terros Health
BACKGROUND: Karen Hoffman Tepper is president and CEO of Terros Health, which has been Inspiring Change for Life in Arizonans for more than 50 years. Hoffman Tepper is passionate about building dedicated, compassionate teams who care for the whole person by finding new ways to deliver mental health, substance abuse and primary care services.
SOURCE OF PRIDE: “I’m most proud when I see Terros Health team members grow and develop in ways that are bigger than themselves. My greatest joy is mentoring young professionals and helping transform them into compassionate, results-driven leaders. I have mentored and supported many young professionals. Watching them transform into great leaders has truly been my greatest joy.”
SURPRISING FACT: “I spent the first 20 years of my marriage telling my husband and children we could not get a dog, which is surprising considering that during the past two years, we have rescued three large, naughty dogs who rule our house.”
SOURCE OF INSPIRATION: “My first female supervisor, Dr. Sherry Betts embodied empowerment. While she was always there to support and guide me, she instilled in me the need to take responsibility, lead others, be creative and ultimately change the world. I continue to aspire to do the same.”
