For the first decade of his professional life, Quint was a teacher, specializing in Special Education, developing programs to hardwire key behaviors and techniques and earning his Masters in Education. From there he moved into the health care arena, working his way up the ladder and overcoming professional and personal hurdles. While Quint was COO at Holy Cross Hospital in Chicago, his initiatives in patient care led to their winning Hospitals Magazine’s Great Comeback award. In 1996, he became president of Baptist Hospital Inc., leading that organization to the top 1% of hospitals nationwide in patient and employee satisfaction.

Quint is currently CEO of Studer Group, an outcomes company that implements evidence-based leadership systems that help clients attain and sustain outstanding results. Its clients—more than 500 hospitals and organizations—serve as a “national learning lab” from which best practices are harvested. These are tested in other organizations, refined, and shared with all organizations through peer-reviewed journal articles, Studer Group publications, and products designed to accelerate change.

Quint has won numerous awards for his accomplishments over the years and has the distinction of being the first and only healthcare professional to win the March 1999, Inc. Magazine’s Master of Business award. He was named one of the “Top 100 Most Powerful People in Healthcare” by Modern Healthcare magazine for his work on institutional healthcare improvement.

He is a nationally recognized speaker and a published author. His first book, Hardwiring Excellence, was an instant hit with health care organizations. Currently, nearly 300,000 copies are in use nationwide. His new book, Results That Last was published by John Wiley & Sons in Fall 2007. Written for a general business audience, the book teaches corporations in every industry how to develop standardized leadership practices that ensure success will last longer than individual leaders. The book has been very well received, making the Amazon and Barnes and Noble bestseller lists prior to its release.

Quint is the owner of a minor league baseball team, the Pensacola Pelicans. He and his wife Rishy are known to support a number of causes both nation wide and in their own community with a special focus on disadvantaged children.

Those that hear Quint speak say his mix of infectious humor and gift for story telling result in unmatched motivation. They walk away with the tools, techniques and passion to make a difference in your work place, in your community, and at home.
