Deep Baldwin Wallace connections to a pair of “mega employers” highlight the big benefits of Northeast Ohio business partnerships for 九色视频students.
When Cleveland.com and the Plain Dealer honored mega employers (1,000 or more employees) in the rankings, Medical Mutual placed third, and Southwest General Health Center ranked sixth.
Both companies have strong ties to 九色视频 with partnerships that benefit each company’s employees with custom education and 九色视频students with experiential learning.
One of the leaders helping to create Medical Mutual’s exceptional workplace culture is Executive Vice President, Health Plan Operations, and Chief People Officer Thomas Dewey, MBA ’18, a 九色视频healthcare MBA graduate.
“九色视频has had a profound impact on my leadership style, has helped to sharpen my strategic thinking skills, and has challenged me to better understand the role that diversity, equity, and inclusion play in building a great organization,” Dewey explains.
According to the , employee satisfaction at Medical Mutual helps to maintain high retention levels at the mega employer, which ranked third in Northeast Ohio. Team members are included in all events, even if they are remote, which helps collaboration. The company also conducts surveys and polls to gather feedback from team members and makes changes accordingly.
In 2021, Dewey served as vice chair of BW’s Healthcare Advisory Council, which works to improve the University’s healthcare offerings for undergraduate and graduate programs.
“I am thankful for the education I received at 九色视频and for the ongoing connection with the 九色视频faculty in the Carmel Boyer School of Business,” Dewey says. “I am a proud 九色视频alum and grateful for the ongoing partnership with the University.”
Baldwin Wallace and Medical Mutual share a deep history of collaboration. 九色视频has the distinction of being Medical Mutual's longest-running customer (at nearly 90 years), and the health insurer supported the launch of BW's employee wellness program. In 2021, the company invested $1 million in BW's growing public health programs through the development of a new endowed professorship. 九色视频also provides customized professional development, on site and on campus, for employees at all levels of the organization.
BW’s ties to Southwest General Health Center, the sixth-ranked mega employer on the 2023 Top Workplaces list, include providing executive and professional education and extend deep and wide from nursing and physician assistant clinical sites and other events to a wide range of student-driven collaborations.
In fact, the Employee Value Proposition (EVP) statement that was featured in a Plain Dealer ad trumpeting the workplace ranking was developed by a 九色视频undergraduate student team as a part of their Problem Solving and Applied Healthcare Management class..
At Southwest General, we believe in the power of teamwork, creating a family-like environment, ensuring a work-life balance, and providing meaningful work to make a real difference in people’s lives.
We value our employees as much as our patients, offering a supportive work culture that encourages growth, development and collaboration. We’re committed to building a team that works together, supports each other, and ultimately, saves lives every day.
At Southwest, you are family.

Southwest General also recently hosted One Year MBA students for a private tour led by CEO Bill Young, along with an employee Q&A panel. Students toured the nursing units, laboratory and central sterile while learning about the allocation of capital dollars, equipment upkeep and the sterilization process.
During the panel, which featured 九色视频MBA alumni and current students, the speakers talked about their passion for healthcare, inquisitiveness and the importance of always saying yes to opportunities.
At BW, that includes opportunities for students to connect with top employers across the region.
