Author: Katie Quinney June 18, 2024 Duration: 19:03
What’s your take on managing up? What does it mean to you and what are the drivers for you to ask how to do it?

Step into Katie's Leadership Lounge, hosted by Katie Quinney, for conversations that feel like a necessary deep breath in the middle of a demanding day. This podcast is specifically for those navigating the unique pressures of leadership and work within healthcare. It’s not about adding more to your to-do list, but about creating a space to pause and reflect on the human side of management. Each episode offers a fresh perspective on the challenges you face, from team dynamics and personal resilience to the broader systems that shape care. You’ll hear honest discussions that blend practical business insights with thoughtful self-improvement, all grounded in the real-world context of healthcare. The aim is to leave you with more than just information-it’s about feeling genuinely refreshed and reconnected to your purpose. Tune in for a podcast that understands the weight of your role and offers a supportive dialogue to help you carry it forward with renewed inspiration and clarity. This is where the complex art of leadership in healthcare gets the thoughtful, nuanced attention it deserves.
