Are you a clinician considering a nonclinical career path?
I get asked regularly about how I got started on my nonclinical career path. Whether I'm speaking at a conference or event, or working with clients on business development strategy projects, it seems people are interested in learning about how an occupational therapist went from treating patients in the clinic to working as a healthcare positioning strategist.
So, this week, we're continuing our series on nonclinical career paths with this solo episode where I break down every role I've held since graduating in 2012. I walk through each job, what I took from each one, how I made the step into the next role, and things that I thought were key factors in skilling up for these nonclinical roles.
What we cover in this Episode:
-The importance of taking every learning opportunity available to you early in your career
-Looking at every position as an opportunity to grow your network and skills
-Starting a healthcare business with no funding
-Purchasing a healthcare business
-Key principles in managing and leading a healthcare business
-How I used LinkedIn to get my first nonclinical consulting role
-Understanding business models and incentives and how that relates to obtaining nonclinical roles
-Achieving Better Outcomes by stepping out of the clinic to affect systemic healthcare improvements
