Great leaders understand the incredible value of collaboration, especially in healthcare. Leadership is a TEAM sport.
The World Health Organization defines interdisciplinary teams as \u201cmultiple health workers from different professional backgrounds work[ing] together with patients, families, carers (caregivers), and communities to deliver the highest quality of care.\"\u00a0

In today's essential episode, Melody Boudreaux Nelson and Stephanie Whitehead break down the benefits of establishing relationships with care teams and how these relationships are critical to your success in laboratory management!
