As SE Health celebrates its 115-year anniversary, they\u2019ve continued to stay true to their long legacy of service through leveraging powerful initiatives such as operating hospices for the homeless, investing in start-ups in the health space, running a technology company, and supporting communities across the country, including First Nations, Inuit, and M\u00e9tis. Through these initiatives, SE Health keeps their vision strong by impacting how people live and age at home. \u201cIt\u2019s the combination of business and social mission that makes SE Health a perfect landing spot for me,\u201d says John when explaining why his organization is so special to him.

Quotables: \u201cIf you have a room full of providers, we\u2019ll talk provider talk and that means full of acronyms, but you bring a patient, a care giver, and family member, it becomes real, and that tangible experience helps shape and influence the direction of where these Ontario health teams would go.\u201d - JY \u201cThere\u2019s enormous pressure to perform and as a result a lot of young leaders aren\u2019t themselves, so the first piece of advice I would give is to be your authentic self, lead with empathy, be kind, be thoughtful.\u201d \u2013 JY \u201cMy parents really instilled those values of work ethic and around kindness as a means to integrate into Canadian society where they really believed that they were so lucky they were able to leave where they came from which was war-torn China.\u201d \u2013 JY \u201cWe have 8,000 staff that serve 22,000 Canadians every day and we want to make sure we take care of our own.\u201d \u2013 JY \u201cYou don\u2019t need to go very far to experience adventure, you can do it in your own backyard.\u201d - JY \u201cIt\u2019s healthy to have different interests and do different activities and that leads to a very positive lifestyle.\u201d \u2013 JY \u201cEveryone has their own brand with how they lead, and it takes time to figure out what your personal brand is.\u201d \u2013 JY \u201cI\u2019m a big supporter of the public library system because I spent a lot of time there, I read everything and it still sticks with me, so I think reading creates that sense of curiosity.\u201d - JY Mentioned in this Episode: SE Health McMaster DeGroote School of Business Unity Health Toronto Access More Interviews with Healthcare Leaders at HIROC.com\/podcast Follow us on LinkedIn, Instagram, and X, and listen on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your favourite podcasts.
