I am pleased to host Season 9 of The Handoff, a podcast for nurse leaders brought to you by Works. As an independent member of the podcast team, I really get to have a blast simply talking with incredible colleagues about the headwinds and tailwinds of healthcare and leadership under the auspices of my strong belief – rooted in published evidence – that leadership is a behavior, not a role.

You can listen anywhere you find your podcasts or online. This week, I sat down with Cheryl Denison, Integration Director of Clinical Applications at Mercy Health, and Tracy Breece, Executive Director of Nursing Informatics at Mercy Health. They walked us through Mercy Health’s Project ANEW—its foundations, lessons learned, and future directions as it redesigns acute care models. 

Let me know what you think about the episode. I’d love your perspective!
