The Business of Healthcare Podcast with Tara Humphrey #306 A Week in the Life of a Healthcare Consultancy CEO
Join Tara on a personal journey through a typically busy and dynamic week in her life as a healthcare consultant, as she balances the demands of work alongside her family commitments.
In this podcast, Tara covers:
- The intricacies of planning, problem-solving, and prioritisation that keeps THC Primary Care thriving; including the Sunday routine that helps Tara prepare for the week of work ahead.
- Tackling unexpected hiccups throughout the week and how to deal with these, particularly when you’re working away from the office.
- Her preparations for the second annual PCN Plus Live conference in Nottingham – and later in the week, a collaborative session with a Lincolnshire-based primary care network.
- Why clear communication, meaningful interactions and organised teamwork is vital to driving organisational success.
- Her dedication to setting boundaries when it comes to managing workload and mapping team roles and responsibilities, and the importance of trusting your instincts when recruiting.
- How to ensure a hybrid working model can be successful; whilst blending in-person and virtual collaboration to maintain a high-performing team aligned in values and standards.
- Podcasting; Tara’s own approach and her key takeaways following a discussion on podcasting and overarching business strategies with fellow primary care consultant Rachel Morris.
