- Maintain line of sight into operational issues that affect Institute goals while respecting existing operational and dyad leadership accountability.
- Build shared ownership and collaboration across disciplines to accelerate innovation, reduce unnecessary interventions, and improve quality of life and outcomes for children with CP.
External Partnerships, Advocacy & Influence
