Leadership Vision
I see and practice leadership with the vision of sincerity with a smile: to foster our deepest capacities to respond to one another’s truest needs.
Project Description
My project aims to redesign a neglected space of health care–the waiting room–through “conversational care” that builds community, promotes interconnectedness, and cultivates compassion. This approach confronts illness and alienation in the context of an unknown time frame to ultimately realize courage and contemplation.
