blog Sep 26, 2022

Leadership skills are crucial for physicians, who represent one of the most important occupations in our society. Physicians must be leaders in their field to provide excellent patient care, manage a large team and coordinate between departments, and support their patient's overall health with information about prevention and maintenance.

blog Sep 19, 2022

Organizations need people in the right seats as they grow and transform quickly. Leadership development programs are designed to do just that. They are designed to take potential leaders and refine their skill-sets to help them become future leaders.

  • in shorts, flip flops and a Hawaiian shirt
  • And my personal favorite, chest hair flowing out over their dress shirt like a dickie… yup

 

So forgive me if some of what I talk about seems like a no-brainer, but given my long history, I feel compelled to cover it all!

“Tire-kickers” are pretty easy to spot and even worse, those using your position to better their own current situation, be it a higher salary, more...
