About the author

Steven F. Gonzalez

President & CEO, HealthView · Founder, CultureAI.com

Steven Gonzalez has spent two decades testing one conviction: culture is not a values poster. It is the operating system of care. He leads from both sides of that idea, as President and CEO of HealthView and as founder of CultureAI, the operating system for culture, built on the belief that great culture and great systems are the same discipline. HealthView is a home health, hospice and palliative care company founded in 1967, a Fortune Best Workplace in Health Care and an Inc. 5000 company. Before HealthView he co-founded SpartX and helped build PokitDok from the founding team, both later acquired. He speaks nationally and advocates in Washington on the future of post-acute care. He writes for Inc. Magazine and Forbes through The Culture Lab.
