The Art of the Move: Staff-Centric Strategies for Healthcare Construction
Christina Olivarria and Jhiah Chang unpack the high-pressure work of orchestrating over 100 projects in just 18 months on a busy academic medical center campus.

If you think enabling projects are just a logistical checkbox, think again. Learn how thoughtful planning, staff-focused strategies, and streamlined communication can turn logistical hurdles into opportunities for innovation.
