"Jeff did a masterful job of leading his hospital. To be an effective CEO in a hospital requires tremendous people skills and strong leadership. Hospitals are a busy intersection of different people - doctors, nurses, administrative personnel, families, and communities - coming together to take care of patients who need help. Jeff did a masterful job of leading his hospital on these fronts. His strong skill set of interacting positively with people, and leadership in general, allowed him, and his hospital, to perform at a high level with patient satisfaction outcomes, employee and physician engagement, and financial metrics. I encourage you to take advantage of the experiences and lessons that he shares in his book. If you are a new leader or an experienced leader, I believe you will benefit from them."
