WE believe in the following:
It's "our time" in healthcare; we are part of the most significant time in the history of this industry
Supply chain matters; undervalue it and companies are forced to re-evaluate the number of nurses at the bedside
People are a company's more valuable investment; not process, not tech or anything else
Providers and suppliers are equally-important partners in the healthcare supply chain
Technical skills matter and our industry needs to invest in competency development programs
Leadership skills are more important when taking positions with more responsibility; extraordinary football players do become great head coaches because of their technical skills; leaders must be lifelong learners in the arena of leadership
Career is but one of many dimensions of our wonderfully full and balanced lives
How we show up is critically important as leaders; thus we have a clear set a values and leadership principles
