Four members of Dartmouth Health leadership have been named to the 2024 class of the New Hampshire 200, New Hampshire Business Review’s (NHBR) biennial ranking of the Granite State’s top business leaders. The New Hampshire 200 are selected for having made their mark on New Hampshire’s economy, business climate and the state as a whole.

The class members employed by Dartmouth Health are:

  • Sally A. Kraft, MD, MPH, vice president of population health, Dartmouth Health
  • Joseph L. Perras, MD, CEO and president, Dartmouth Health’s Cheshire Medical Center
  • Susan E. Mooney, MD, MS, FACOG, CEO and president, Dartmouth Health’s Alice Peck Day Memorial Hospital
  • Jennifer E. Gilkie, chief communications and marketing officer, Dartmouth Health

“As New Hampshire’s largest private employer, Dartmouth Health’s leaders must not only understand the business side of healthcare, but approach their work and the people whose lives we touch with the utmost care,” said Joanne M. Conroy, MD, CEO and president of Dartmouth Health. “Jen, Dr. Perras, Dr. Mooney and Dr. Kraft are perfect examples of leaders who strike this balance and make us a better organization. I’m proud that they were chosen as members of the 2024 class of the New Hampshire 200, and of the invaluable expertise in their respective areas that they each provide every day.”

Introduced five years ago, the New Hampshire 200 initiative acknowledges and celebrates entrepreneurs and leaders hailing from diverse sectors across the state. Members of the class of 2024 were nominated by members of the previous two classes and represent numerous industries. The 2024 edition of the New Hampshire 200 book delves into personal, career and industry perspectives, offering readers valuable insights like learned business lessons, encountered challenges, future predictions and more.

“We are thrilled to unveil the 2024 edition of the New Hampshire 200 list, showcasing an extraordinary cohort of leaders who are spearheading progress in their respective industries within the Granite State,” expressed Mike Cote, NHBR’s editor. “With the assistance of our first two classes of NH 200 honorees, we were able to find 200 new and unique recipients, representing a cross-section of the thriving pulse of business in New Hampshire today. We eagerly anticipate presenting the people of New Hampshire with this compelling glimpse into the lives of individuals who are undeniably leaving an indelible and positive mark on our state.”

The New Hampshire 200 class of 2024 will be honored at an event at the Grappone Center in Concord on April 11. To view the full list, visit https://bit.ly/3GzJHVj.
