From the 2022 Joint Annual
Meeting (recorded 6/28/2022)
Presented by Sarah
Matthews, MLS(ASCP)CM
The scope of what a new lab
manager does is broader than most people realize. It also requires more emotional
intelligence and the ability to influence and persuade at a hospital level and
beyond. This presentation will provide guidance on the most important parts of
our job as lab managers and share ways to prioritize our responsibilities.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
At the conclusion of this presentation,
participants will be able to:
- List their top priorities in their lab and the reasoning for placing them in that order.
- Summarize emotional intelligence and identify their own strengths and weaknesses in that regard.
- Summarize what a business case analysis is and how to use it to convince others of what your lab needs.
