What Does Being A Leader Entail?

An organisation flourishes if leaders are able to identify their team’s strengths

Healthcare is a multi-discipli-nary and complex arena. Our ecosystem is an extremely intricate co-relation of multiple professional groups, departments, and specialties. Establishing a seamless and robust system of coordination and interactions amongst each of these groups is the foundation of a strong entity considering the inter-dependence the groups have upon each other. Alongside, leaders in the healthcare industry have a task of integrating organisational commitment into day-to-day practices at an institution so that we work towards common goals meaningfully.

Any successful entrepreneur with a vision to serve needs to capitalise on the diversity within the organisation to emerge as a piece of effective and efficient machinery. An organisation flourishes if the leaders are able to identify the strengths of its team, leverage them appropriately, and stand-by our people.

My vision is to expand HCG's state-of-the-art treatment across the country and beyond borders making it affordable and accessible to the patients. To bring alive this vision, we consciously invested in our people and ensured that every employee at HCG is aligned to our beliefs and mission to care, concern, and be compassionate yet save lives. I had to take tough calls during this journey, but every single decision made was completely worth it.
