Our Annual Tribute to Leadership invites us to pause—much like stopping to smell the roses—and recognize the individuals whose vision, commitment, and integrity have shaped our community and advanced the future of healthcare. This moment is not only about honoring extraordinary achievements, but also about acknowledging the far-reaching influence of leadership—how it inspires others, strengthens organizations, and paves the way for lasting impact. As we celebrate today’s leaders, we reflect on their legacy and look ahead to the future they continue to inspire.
