HIMSSCast: What the pandemic has changed about requisite IT leadership skills

The COVID-19 pandemic turned the U.S. healthcare industry upside-down. It was like dropping a boulder in a pond: The ripples shook everything.

This includes the kinds of skills healthcare leaders need to guide their organizations through the new environment. Not just CEOs, COOs and CFOs, but CIOs and other health IT leaders.

In this podcast, J. Bryan Bennett, executive director of the Healthcare Center of Excellence, which specializes in leadership skills, offers health IT leaders help in navigating the new normal.

 

Talking points:

How it has changed the way healthcare CIOs, CMIOs, chief digital officers and other health IT leaders must approach leadership.

The new and changing skills these healthcare leaders require in an industry altered by nearly three years of crisis.
