Strategy Collective Earns Back-to-Back Recognition on Modern Healthcare's Best Places to Work in Healthcare List
HOUSTON, TX – Strategy Collective is proud to announce its inclusion in the 2026 Modern Healthcare Best Places to Work in Healthcare list. This marks the second year in a row the firm has received this prestigious national recognition.
A Culture Defined by the Team
Unlike many industry awards, the Modern Healthcare ranking is heavily weighted by the voices of those who know the organization best. 80% of the total score is derived from an anonymous employee survey, which evaluates key pillars such as:
- Staff Engagement
- Work-Life Balance
- Supportive Workplace Culture
“This one truly belongs to the team,” said Dominique James, Co-Founder. “Knowing our people feel as good about this culture as we do means everything. We don't take that trust for granted—not for a single day.”
Breaking the Mold
What makes this recognition particularly unique is the company Strategy Collective keeps on the list. In an industry ranking often dominated by massive health systems and national insurers, it is rare for a boutique consultancy to be recognized as a peer.
“To be recognized for two years running alongside the giants of the healthcare industry is one of the greatest professional compliments we could receive," reflected Matthew Lee, Co-Founder. "It reinforces that you don't have to be a 'giant' to have a giant impact on culture.”
Anticipation for the Final Ranking
While the alphabetical list of winners has been released, the official ranked order remains under wraps until the Modern Healthcare Gala in September. Strategy Collective is looking to build on its incredible momentum from last year, where the firm landed in a top spot at #11 in the final rankings.
Looking Forward
Strategy Collective remains committed to being a place where team members can bring their whole selves to work and do exceptional things for their clients. This award is a testament to every team member—past and present—who has contributed to the firm's growth and honesty.
As we celebrate this milestone, we extend a sincere thank you to our team and our partners for continuing to trust us with their time and talent.
