It begins with a mindset—a mindset that you, the surgeon, own the outcome. You are the leader. You are the one who is ultimately responsible for delivering safe, high-quality, high-reliability care.

But leading today looks much different than it did even a decade ago. Today, you cannot be out in front of the team, you must lead from within the team, working in concert with other health care professionals, the patient, and the patient’s family. Today, your world is multidisciplinary, and the continuum of care is much longer and more complex than ever. The regulatory pressure you face is unprecedented. No one ever said that establishing a patient- and surgeon-driven culture was going to be easy, but the rewards will be there. Guaranteed.
