In this episode of Health Fail, we sit down with Rasu Shrestha who recently left his role as Chief Innovation Officer at UPMC to become Chief Strategy Officer & EVP at Atrium Health.
Dr. Shrestha shares his views on failure as a gift and the importance of embracing our failures to avoid essentially failing twice. Throughout his career he has been working to build a culture where failure is celebrated by creating a safe space for his team to experiment and fail.
In the conversation, we also dig into clinician burnout, the allergic reaction to failure in medicine, self-reflection, and not being afraid to kill an idea and put it behind you.
