Description:
It may be unpopular to talk about the increasingly restrictive funding environment in today’s industry but it has become a catalyst that is forcing change on a faster rate than anything this industry has ever seen. More than ever the RTS holds a position to either help improve the health of their company or doom it. Success will be based on their decision to either stand up and help lead or pretend business is as usual. Being a successful RTS requires competencies in 5 areas; 1) technological, 2) communicative, 3) clinical, 4) intrapersonal skills and 5) acumen for running a healthy company.
