I have never been a #feminist for the sake of #feminism, but I absolutely 100% believe that female leaders belong in the c-suite, and as Ruth Bader Ginsberg famously said, “Women belong in all places where decisions are being made.” Is it me, or are the tides finally turning on female leadership not just in the c-suite, but in #MedTech broadly, and in MSK specifically? #Ortho and #spine have always been male dominated fields – from the #surgeons, to the #reps, to the #executives – men dominated the OR, the boardroom, and the discussion – much of the cultivation beginning in college on the athletic field. Women on executive teams have often been relegated to administrative roles – HR, legal, compliance, but not the highest-level product, strategy, and P&L owning roles. But women bring so much to this world – a keen strategic mind, creativity, dare I even say empathy that is so sorely needed to connect the business world to the patients we serve. In the past few months I was so lucky to participate in the star studded MedExecWomen event and also in Materialise’s Leading Minds event, where a powerhouse at the forefront of 3DP is led by a brilliant woman - Brigitte de Vet-Veithen. It has been empowering to see the leadership that I hope my daughter will get to take for granted. We can still do better than 10-20% of the c-suite…but this landscape looks different than when I started my career. I have collated (a likely non-exhaustive list), of these fantastic female MSK leaders guiding us into a new world in MSK – ASC transitions, digital tools, a new frontier of value based care, pricing challenges, new global markets. I am grateful for those I know and eager to get to know more of them. ·      Yin Becker – VP, Chief Corporate Affairs Officer, Stryker (Since 2012) ·      Cheryl R. Blanchard, Ph.D. – President and CEO, ANIKA THERAPEUTICS S.R.L. (since 2020) ·      Rachel Ellingson – Chief Strategy Officer (since 2018), Chief Administrative Officer (2024), Zimmer Biomet ·      Kimberley Elting – President, Global Orthopedics, Orthofix Seaspine (Since 2022) ·      Leslie Storms – US President, DePuy Synthes (Since 2023) ·      Gwen Watanabe – Interim CEO, Augmedics (Since 2024) ·      Rebecca Whitney – CEO, Spine, Highridge Medical (Formerly ZimVie Spine) (Since 2021) ·      Karen Zaderej – CEO, Chairperson of the Board, axogen (Since 2011, 2018 respectively) How do we help inspire, promote, and elevate women early and in the middle of their career to fill the funnel so that we can increase visibility at the top? Thank you also to the female leadership at Health Advances who never made me feel like being female should hold us back. To co-founder Paula Ness Speers, and to our entire female only MedTech leadership team Susan Posner Tracy Walters Darcy Krzynowek and Alena Petrella. Not quite #MSKMonday or #WomensHealthWednesday – but you get the idea ;)

A simple rule of thumb from Queueing Theory says that the number of client visits determines the admission rate and the frequency of client visits determines the total case load. Specifically, the number of appointments to set aside for admission, when paneling clients in a service, is the total appointments in a time period divided by the expected number of visits a client will attend during the entire episode of care, including intake. Likewise, the caseload is the expected number of time periods between consecutive visits times the total number of appointments in a time period. For example, if you are a psychologist with 25 sessions a week, and the average client will attend 10 sessions, then you need to reserve 2.5 sessions a week, or 5 sessions over two weeks, for admission. Similarly, if clients attend one session every three weeks then the caseload, at steady state, will be 75 clients.

The role in dyiad partnerships with physicans and administrators are critical and fundamental to the overall success of servicelines. Recommendations: 1. Set time aside to round with your physicians to understand their obstacles. 2. Openly communicate about goals and how to work together to understand both sides perspective. 3. Help then navigate by eliminating the scaries and help show the pathway. 4. Real problems need real solutions. Communicate. Understand the history. 5. Check the misconceptions at the door. 6. Always celebrate the GOOD, and learn from the opportunities. Thanks to Becker's Healthcare for the opportunity to chat. Take a listen below to learn more! Question: How do you engage with your physicians/administrative leaders?

💥 We knew there was a need, but we never expected so much excitement about #OPHTHALPRENEURS! Register today to reserve your seat! https://lnkd.in/dgrk4dZw Why Ophthalpreneurs? Why Now? 👁️🗨️ For far too long, private practice in ophthalmology has been sidelined, seemingly lost in the margins. Though essential, rigorous clinical training often overlooks a critical facet: the entrepreneurial spirit. Leadership, business strategy, marketing, efficiency – these aren't addressed in medical school nor at scientific congresses. Yet they're the backbone of a successful private practice. 🛠 Ophthalmology is not just about mastering clinical skills. It demands a diverse toolkit – one that includes soft skills in understand patient frustrations and motivations for vision correction. 🌉 Enter OPHTHALPRENEURS. This movement recognises the gap and seeks to bridge it. It assembles the stakeholders of private ophthalmology, fostering a dynamic community eager to learn, share, network, and catalyse change. It’s an arena for the collective minds of Europe and beyond to drive innovation, scale growth, and redefine the future of private ophthalmology. And most importantly, it aims to allow more patients access to technologies not typically offered in public health environments. 👊 If you're a stakeholder in this arena, OPHTHALPRENEURS isn't just any movement. It's OUR movement.

Strong leaders take bold decision , it’s been over a decade for me now at Boston Scientific and I must say that there has not been an year which hasn’t thrown a surprise to me with respect to leadership decisions. Truely advancing and transformative decisions , I have personally seen $7Bn market cap to grow now at $108Bn in span of 13 years. This is a clear sign of how financial prudence is achieved and still aggression is maintained to reach more markets and serve more patients. #AdvancingScience #BostonScientific From #AllThingsBostonScientific to #DeliveringTomorrowToday to #AdvancingScienceForLife - change in a way we think and want to progress 🎉 Maneesh Rajkumar Pherwani Madan R Krishnan Dr. Vibhav Garg Bhavna Sapra Manjushree Raina Prashanth Prabhakar Animesh Thakur Arun Kumar, CSCP Satish Chandrasekar Gavender Singh Sankalp Bajpai LIPIKA ARORA Reynold Scaria Kishore K Neralla Ratnendu Ray Anirudh Dheer Manoj Madhavan Deepak Khamesra Rakesh Kumar Dhall Rajesh Ramamurthy Prakash Mannoor Deepankar Chugh Pratham Dwivedi Divyadas Chandran

Not so long ago, the presence of women in medicine was more the exception than the norm, rarely found in practice, history, or the annals of medical literature. But today, in 2024, we proudly celebrate the incredible women who are at the forefront of oncology and medicine. We honor the countless women in the medical field who, through their relentless pursuit of knowledge and compassion, are reshaping the landscape of healthcare. They are researchers uncovering new treatments, physicians providing care and advocates pushing for better healthcare policies. At Oncology Compass, we are proud to acknowledge that women constitute half of our esteemed scientific board and form the backbone of our team—leading in marketing, writing and design. This representation is not just a statistic; it's a testament to the pivotal role women play in pushing the boundaries of what's possible in healthcare. So, let's celebrate the achievements of women in medicine. Here's to the women leading the way in oncology and medicine—may their brilliance, dedication and compassion continue to light our path toward a brighter, healthier future for all. #InternationalWomensDay #OncologyCompass
