Change Management & Nursing Adoption

• Coach client clinical leaders through the people-side of the change, drawing on your own experience leading nursing teams through workflow transformation.
• Be visibly accountable to nursing teams for the safety, quality, and humanity of the product.

How You Work

• You can sit equally well with a frontline PAT nurse, a department chair, a head of product, and a CFO — and adjust without losing your point of view.
