The founder of PT United, Quinn Worden has spent his life entrenched in the Physical Therapy industry watching his father treat patients everywhere they went in the community, managing a private practice in a very competitive market.

At PT United, we passionately believe “Physical Therapists are Heros” since their practice is vital in patients recovery and optimizing their quality of life. This gives us a great sense of pride knowing the difference we make in patient outcome!

My business passion is aligning culture, leadership and a strategic process around growth initiatives that will deliver value to your customers, more deeply engage employees and deliver enterprise value creation. To say it another way, I love to help teams WIN. When a business that I am associated with begins to turn the corner on growth and profitability, I try to fade into the shadows so that the folks who have done all the heavy lifting get the credit.
Frankly, I have been lucky to have had the assignments over the years that challenged my creativity and leadership skills to come up with ways for a business to become high performing. Change has been core to the successes I’ve had. It was also always important to have great talent surrounding me on each journey. Tying the values that exist within an organization to its purpose and business model provide a view of why a business is or is not performing to its potential.
I do not have the answers. Your team has the answers, yet they sometimes, just don’t know it. Collaboration across your leadership team surfaces potential answers to move down a path to high performance.
