“If we focus on doing the very best for the people that work on our team, do we then get the very best out of them?”

 


 

“Being a CEO is hard enough—when you also deeply care about the people that are on your team, that takes another piece of you.”

 


 

“Even when you are busy, there is still time to connect with people.”

 


 

“You have to have both grit and grace, have to work really hard. Leadership is hard, and also the grace to know that you are not perfect, and neither is anybody you’re working with. And if you’re willing to work hard and be a learner, you can lead in healthcare, you can lead in your life.”

 

“I always realized how important people were in the work we do. Buildings don't take care of patients. Equipment doesn't take care of people. People do.”
Chanda Chacón, MPH, FACHE
Chief Executive Officer at Children's Nebraska
