Times of crisis necessitate health care leaders to balance competing priorities, including patient need, staff wellbeing, and one’s own health. While it can be difficult to reflect in the midst of a crisis – like in the case of the COVID-19 pandemic – this session dedicates time to exploring strategies to improve leadership’s response in times of crisis.
