Show Notes

Dr. Marjie Bessel has been a rock during the pandemic. As the Chief Clinical Officer for one of the largest integrated delivery systems in the country, Dr. Bessel knows first-hand about the profound responsibility of that role. Banner Health, where Dr. Bessel occupies this senior physician role, includes 30 acute care hospitals in 6 states, more than 50,000 employees and 3 academic medical centers. Banner owns urgent care centers, rehab hospitals and employs thousands of practicing professionals.This is no small job and the pandemic tested every aspect of the Banner Health system and will have repercussions for some time to come. Where did she find the resources and tools to perform so well under such immense and constant pressure?

In this episode we learn about the key inflection points in her leadership journey beginning with her unwavering commitment to healthcare that began as a child. But perhaps more importantly, throughout the podcast, Marjie models the behaviors that define the best leaders in any field. Her humility, passion, and self-awareness shine through. Hear how she navigated obstacles along the way. Listen to the themes that drive her actions and behaviors today. Dr. Bessel understands that learning and self-improvement are not simply the product of formal mentorships, though formal mentors are very important, but also the product of everyone who was, and still is, part of her journey, irrespective of title or position.
