“A few years ago, I asked Danna if she could speak at my hospital Grand Rounds. Due to their strong personalities, addressing healthcare professionals and physicians can be a challenge. Danna delivered an important message that transcended any rank or authority that existed in the room. She gave us all equal footing and empowered the participants to be their best self at work. Egos aside, we all have a common goal of delivering quality care to our patients. Danna helped us to see through minutia to what really matters most. I highly recommend her to any organization that wants to improve workplace cohesiveness.”
