USING SCIENCE TO HELP LEADERS
KEEP PEOPLE & KEEP THEM WELL
NOBODY WANTS TO DO A BAD JOB
In today’s healthcare environment, leaders aren’t short on passion—they’re short on tools.
With extreme market turbulence, workforce shortages, and rising labor costs, even the most committed leaders struggle with retention and engagement.
The margin for error? Almost nonexistent.
it is getting HARDER
1,750,000 years of training needed to replace the physicians that left the workforce from 2020-2022
1/5 of the nation’s nurses plan to leave the healthcare workforce by 2027
22% of Gen Z healthcare workers plan to leave the industry within 1-3 years. Why? Toxic culture.
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY
As an award-winning researcher, strategist, and leader, I have spent the last 15 years understanding how we can keep our people and keep them well.
After years immersed in employee engagement data and behavioral science, I have learned that:
Leaders can turn things around—not with platitudes, but with precision.
Not with fluff, but with evidence.
For free.
NO HUMANS, NO MARGIN, NO MISSION
At its very core, healthcare is humans working with humans to heal humans. Without our humans, we have no other margin, we have no other mission.
