Networking Around The Globe

"Learning from our medical and administrative colleagues and having that multidisciplinary approach to learning was very important given all the different roles that health care workers play. I realized that even though we were all so far away from each other, we face the same organizational challenges in trying to implement changes and deal with natural constraints."
