Savvy is a co-op, meaning we are legally owned by our members, who are patients and people, like you!
Members have a vote in what we do and share in our yearly profits.
In healthcare, we do this by giving patients direct ways to share their experiences with health innovators, and advocating that they be fairly compensated for their contributions.
We empower patients to co-create new solutions, give them a sense of purpose, and help them earn money.
Being people-centered is an outcome, not a strategy. Actively work with those whose lives you impact to make them partners in what you do.
Recognize that great ideas come from all over. Be a mentor to others and help people develop new skills. Encourage collaboration.
Create and nurture a culture where diverse people and perspectives are not just allowed, but sought after.
Co-ownership requires an open and honest environment where members are informed and feedback is valued.
Be ambitious. Drive innovation by challenging complacency and the status quo.
Not every attempt will be a success. Use failure as an opportunity to learn and receive feedback. Also take time to acknowledge and celebrate success when it comes.
In order to make the biggest impact, make sure you are solving real problems. Work with the community to identify what these are and create purpose-driven solutions.
Be authentic and consistent. Recognize that integrity is a choice that has to be made continually. Inspire others to do the same.
Have discipline to stay focused, and courage to consider how current actions have future impacts.
Important work can also be fun. Work with purpose. Live with passion.
