Choices Create Champions
|
What is a champion and how can we create championship results in every area of our life? Champions are described as remarkable people, warriors, heroes and winners. Champions are not magically blessed or dramatically different, they simply apply a different set of skills to their lives. We become champions in life when we decide to make different choices daily that the average person is not willing to make. This empowering, educational, entertaining presentation will teach you the "basics" of creating championship results both personally and professionally.

A CMO Discussion on Achieving Supply Chain Success
Emphasis in supply chain is evolving from transactions and order fulfillment to strategic sourcing and clinical integration. Identifying shared goals between the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) and the Chief Supply Chain practitioner can forge a foundation for success.
This panel discussion will bring you the unique opportunity to gain insight from CMOs of the nation's leading healthcare systems as they discuss their roles within the organization and react to responses from a physician survey on supply chain value. Listen as they share their insight and experiences, and then use what you've learned to take away new strategies for collaboration within your own organization.
