The Leadership Challenges panel discussion will focus on current field medical leadership challenges including those identified by the audience. With a lens specifically intended for field medical, the discussion topics will include navigating shifting priorites, learnings from digital initiatives, how reallocation of resources are typically considered, and how managing internal stakeholders has shifted and where these and other areas are expected to shift in future.
