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 Dr. Brooke Baldwin, Senior Vice President and Chief Nursing Executive at Oregon Health and Science University Healthcare (OHSU) Healthcare and Associate Dean of Clinical Affairs at OHSU School of Nursing. Dr. Baldwin walked us through OHSU’s leadership strategy to achieve a thriving nursing workforce and care setting.

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