Why leadership skills matter
You cannot be a solo expert in an increasingly complex and changing world.
You must know yourself, your impact on others and demonstrate the energy and drive needed to inspire others to improve outcomes.
Never is this more relevant in the world of osteoporosis. The journey towards a cure has only just begun, and new research is finally driving a reduction in the burden of fragility fractures.
