"I learned to work smarter, not harder. I learned to actively listen, and ask staff questions to lead them to their own solutions. My leadership journey will continue and I hope I am able to bring my staff along with me on this journey."

"CHCF opened my eyes and gave me a broader perspective on health care leadership. After the fellowship my entire point of view of how to lead in health care has transformed. CHCF gave me the tools to get started on this journey. Most importantly, the memories and bonds made with my cohort and faculty are the best gift of all!"
