Health Catalyst Key Values
OUR PEOPLE ARE CONTINUOUS LEARNERS
We hire people who are smart, who love to learn and pick up new skills quickly, independently and with little direction. We don’t have to reinvent the wheel with each solution we develop, but we also know that an off-the-shelf wheel won’t be the perfect fit every time. So we encourage our people to actively find and pursue innovative solutions that truly solve the problem … and more.
- I can learn from anyone.
- I love to learn, and I am a lifelong student.
- I recognize my mistakes and correct them quickly; I fail fast.
- I am open to and respond favorably to feedback and coaching.
- I value my autonomy and use it to gain new knowledge and skills.
- I recognize that diversity of perspectives leads to better decisions.
- I am self-aware and seek improvement, personally and professionally.
- I watch, listen, and learn from others; thank them for their teachings; and apply the teachings to the mastery of my profession.
OUR PEOPLE ARE HARDWORKING
Each time we work with a new client, we start by setting a deadline for implementing our platform, and we stick to it until the job is done. Sometimes this means doing more than we were contracted for – and that’s fine. Our team members are willing to do what it takes to get the job done right so that every customer succeeds.

- I make personal sacrifices, as needed, to get the work done.
- I recognize that not every part of my job will be fun.
OUR PEOPLE ARE HUMBLE
We give credit where it’s due. And often the credit for a really amazing idea goes to our clients and team members. Our company was built on humility. We appreciate praise and accolades but we never want these wins to blind us to the fact that our own success comes from everyone around us. Without them, we wouldn’t be where we are today.
