What Leadership Means
Stepping up as a leader of your department’s unit-based team—as a UBT co-lead or a UBT health and safety champion—means you’ll be guiding the team to make your department a great place to work and to receive care. You’ll lead meetings, facilitate partnership processes like interest-based problem solving, coach team members and advocate for the team’s success. You’ll also help the team develop along the Path to Performance.
