Amy Perry

President and CEO

Banner Health

BACKGROUND: Amy Perry is a champion for healthcare professionals and quality-based patient care. She is focused on improving access, affordability, customer experience and expanding Banner’s health plans. She has been named one of Modern Healthcare’s Top 25 Women Leaders and 100 Most Influential People in Healthcare.

KEY TO SUCCESS: “Developing a clear, inspiring vision and building a ‘“’one team’”’ culture will lead to extraordinary results. By ‘one team,’ I mean engaged people working together to achieve outstanding quality, safety, customer service and financial performance. It also means recruiting and retaining the best talent by consistently being a Best Place to Work.”

SOURCE OF PRIDE: “I wouldn’t point to one accomplishment but rather a career of consistently doing what I say I’ll do. It’s about becoming a trusted partner to those around you. It can be a high bar to meet, so achieving that always gives me great pride.”

SURPRISING FACT: “I love sports movies – ‘Coach Carter,’ ‘Moneyball,’ ‘Rudy,’ ‘Jerry Maguire’ – you name it!”
