🎯 Leadership Breakdown. Toxic Behavior. Hidden Costs.
If you’re a healthcare leader dealing with high performers who create chaos, staff turnover, or cultural tension—but feel “too valuable to lose”—this episode is for you.
🎙️ In this episode of All Things LOCS, Dr. Dan Neissany, DPT sits down with executive coach Aashi Arora to unpack the real cost of disruptive leadership behaviors in healthcare.
