TIMEOUT with Michael Backus, a part-time basketball referee, and President & Chief Executive Officer of Oswego Health, an independent community-based health system. He brings a whole new meaning to leadership in healthcare and a potential blueprint for others to learn from.
"Find the best people to get on the bus with you"
Transparency, vulnerability, and communication are how Mike has spread passion and purpose throughout all levels of the organization. In turn, their patients are saying, "You cared for my loved one as if they were a part of your family."
If you take care of the community, the community will take care of you. Finding ways to engage and challenge his team to find solutions while modeling his workforce off of the community in which they live and work, makes all the difference in the quality of care and positive health outcomes.
