The Trust Triangle: A Leadership Imperative in the MedTech & Health Sector In my experience, trust is the cornerstone of successful leadership, especially in the MedTech and health sectors, where stakes are high, and outcomes impact patient lives. One concept that has resonated deeply with me is the "Trust Triangle"—a simple yet powerful framework for cultivating trust within teams, organisations, and the broader market. The Trust Triangle comprises three key elements: 1. Authenticity: Being genuine and transparent in communication and actions. Leaders who openly share their motivations, challenges, and intentions create a space where others feel safe to do the same. We trust people who are authentic and are suspicious of those who are not. 2. Logic: Sound reasoning and good judgment build confidence. In the health tech space, this means decisions that are data-driven, evidence-based, and align with a shared mission of enhancing patient outcomes. Even when employees don’t agree with the final decision they will be more accepting if they understand the logic that went into the decision making. 3. Empathy: Understanding and valuing the perspectives and emotions of others. By listening deeply to colleagues, customers, patients and stakeholders, we foster stronger connections and make informed decisions that truly resonate. It’s easier to deliver tough news or feedback when it’s done with empathy, respect and compassion. During my leadership roles, including at Alcon Surgical, I actively applied the Trust Triangle to create a more cohesive and collaborative culture. By leading with authenticity and being transparent about our goals and challenges, I noticed an increase in employee engagement. When team members felt confident in the rationale behind our strategic decisions and recognised that their voices were heard and valued, collaboration between departments or functions and alignment with the executive leadership team improved significantly. This, in turn, drove stronger cross-functional behaviours and enabled us to better serve our customers and patients. I thought I would share this concept with my network to see if it’s helpful and to open a discussion on how we can leverage these principles or trust more effectively. Building trust isn't a one-time effort—it's a continuous practice that can transform how we work together and, ultimately, how we impact patient outcomes. How have you seen trust play out in your leadership experiences? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts on how we can further apply these principles to build stronger, more connected teams. #Leadership #TrustTriangle #MedTech #HealthTech #TeamCulture #LeadershipDevelopment

* "Setting Yourself Up for Success: How to Be an Engaging Board of Directors and Drive Innovation in Healthcare" 😁 As a healthcare leader, setting yourself up for success as an engaging Board of Directors is crucial to driving innovation and solving complex challenges. But how do you achieve this? 😁 First, prioritize leadership resilience. In today's fast-paced healthcare landscape, resilience is key to navigating uncertainty and driving progress. Develop a growth mindset, embrace failure as a learning opportunity, and cultivate a culture of psychological safety. 😀 Next, foster a culture of innovation. Encourage experimentation, empower team members to take calculated risks, and provide resources to support creative problem-solving. Stay curious, ask questions, and seek diverse perspectives to challenge assumptions. 😀 Effective communication is also essential. Clearly articulate your vision, actively listen to stakeholders, and address concerns with empathy and transparency. Leverage technology to facilitate collaboration and drive data-driven decision-making. 😀 Finally, prioritize diversity, equity, and inclusion. Harness the power of diverse perspectives to drive creative solutions and ensure that all voices are heard. Address systemic barriers and biases and create a culture of belonging. By prioritizing leadership resilience, innovation, effective communication, and DEI, you will set yourself up for success as an engaging Board of Directors, equipped to tackle even the most complex challenges. 😁                                          Written By: Michael Sandnes  #LeadershipResilience #InnovationInHealthcare #EffectiveCommunication #DeIinHealthcare #HealthcareLeadership 😀

Building a national healthcare company from the ground up was a journey of perseverance and strategic growth several years back. From a single concept, we expanded across five major metropolitan areas with 125 healthcare providers and 500 employees. The coup for me personally was cinching a JV agreement with Mass General and Brigham and Women’s following a national RFP process. I wore multiple hats leading three divisions: ✅ medical office ✅ employer health services ✅ business operations And gained valuable experience in P&L management, revenue cycle management (RCM), payer negotiations/contracting, and employer relations The key for me was embracing each challenge and continuously adapting to drive more success. If you're in the process of building a company, remember it's not just about having a great idea, but about the determination to see it through.

⚡️ It was a big lesson for me. Throughout my 30+ years in healthcare, I've worn many hats – from critical care physician and C-suite executive to healthcare technology advisor. One moment that stands out is my time at the White House, where I learned the importance of strategic coordination and clear communication. Whether working on trip briefings, overseeing motorcade movements, or briefing the Press Corps, I learned firsthand how meticulous planning leads to success. And I had to get really good at meticulous planning fast! Today, I am leveraging these insights and others to help Medtech and Healthtech CEOs and founders navigate the complex U.S. healthcare system, ensuring their innovations not only shine but deliver real value. What's the most impactful lesson you've learned in your career? #FridayEngagement #Leadership #CareerLessons
