Thriving Amid Uncertainty: Strategic Pathways for Health Care in the Years Ahead
Craig Deao, Managing Director, Strategy & Organizational Transformation

Hospitals and health systems are navigating an era of extraordinary change. Initiatives such as BBB have introduced additional uncertainty, challenging traditional operations, financial models, and organizational priorities. Explore how employee engagement—across clinicians, leaders, and staff—can become a strategic lever for thriving in the future. Participants will hear practical strategies and real-world examples of how engaging people at all levels enables innovation, adaptability, and resilience, positioning hospitals to not just survive but grow and lead in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape.
