Work-life flexibility – Providing meaningful flexibility and empathetic leadership.
Leadership – Cultivating trust and confidence in leadership across the system.

“At Tanner, we put people first — always,” said Jill Anelli, senior vice president and chief human resources officer at Tanner Health. “That means creating a workplace where our team members are supported, respected and inspired to bring their best selves to work. This award isn’t just about what we’ve built; it’s about who we are.”
Tanner’s culture has long emphasized work-life balance, employee well-being and leadership that listens. From flexible scheduling to a shared sense of purpose, the health system has prioritized not only what employees do — but how they feel doing it.
“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO.
“That’s something to be proud of. In today’s market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That’s paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
Energage’s Top Workplaces Culture Excellence Awards are part of a national program with an 18-year history of recognizing “people-first” organizations through a research-backed employee engagement survey.
