Becky Vea
People Operations, SVP | Health Catalyst
Becky Vea’s leadership has been instrumental in shaping Health Catalyst’s current approach to employee development. Under her guidance, the company has developed programs to empower team members and enhance professional development through mentorship and personalized learning.
Health Catalyst’s comprehensive mentorship program strategically connects team members across the organization to share knowledge and guidance. This initiative reflects Becky’s understanding that professional growth flourishes within supportive relationships, providing employees with the connections and resources needed to advance their careers while contributing to the company’s healthcare transformation mission.
The program’s benefits extend to the interactive annual career planning review process she implemented, which pairs employees with their managers for meaningful discussions about individual aspirations and organizational alignment.
Becky’s commitment to employees appears throughout her work, particularly in the transparent compensation framework she developed. By eliminating salary history questions and instead basing compensation on market data, she has addressed industry-wide equity challenges while encouraging candidates to educate themselves on appropriate benchmarks using resources like Glassdoor and Salary.com.
Becky’s collaborative leadership style is exemplified by her creation of a cross-functional benefits committee that brings diverse perspectives to decisions traditionally confined to human resources. This innovative approach has led to more balanced benefit offerings that truly serve Health Catalyst’s diverse workforce.
Her dedication to employee well-being extends to comprehensive wellness initiatives that address the full spectrum of health needs. From implementing expansive family leave policies and unlimited paid time off to providing resources like Tava for mental health therapy, Headspace for mindfulness, SWORD for physical health and Bloom for women’s pelvic therapy, Becky ensures team members receive holistic support.
Her active participation in the company employee resource group (ERG), Women Empowered, demonstrates Becky’s commitment to advancing women in technology. This ERG’s initiatives create pathways for women to thrive in healthcare technology, contributing to industry transformation and company-wide success.
By anchoring her leadership in inclusivity, fairness and opportunity, Becky has created an environment where employees can focus on their most meaningful work: advancing healthcare through innovative technology solutions.
