She shared the following tip on Vizient’s blog:

“Data shared in a vacuum without the ability to hold people accountable is often a fruitless activity. It may start out well, but a lack of structure often leads to a lack of focus and priority.

Organizationally, structure and governance are a strategic commitment to processes and outcomes that are supported by executives.”
