Tanja Piccini has played a key role in Fairview Health Services’ shift to embed belonging as a business imperative—one example of how she is helping to reshape Fairview’s approach to culture, belonging, and health equity. Over the past year with the Minneapolis-based nonprofit health care system, Piccini has championed the message that culture is not just an HR initiative, it is an enterprise-wide responsibility tied to performance, retention, and patient experience. She has strengthened the organization’s talent-retention strategy and helped Fairview expand pipelines among talent demographics, says Sharon Smith-Akinsanya, CEO of the Rae Mackenzie Group, who notes, “Under her guidance, Fairview continues to build culture strategies that reduce attrition and improve patient care quality.”
