Leading Boldly for the Future: The Under-appreciated and Unrealized Power of Relationships Greetings AUPHA members: For several months, I’ve found myself constantly thinking about relationships. Personally, and professionally. I don’t do “transactions.” I don’t know how. I’m not good at it. And I don’t care for the approach. I do relationships. I always have. And the older and more experienced I’ve gotten, the more I realize how incredibly important my relationships are, and the more I appreciate the profound long-term impact my relationships have had on my career and my life. One of my longtime mentors, the healthcare quality improvement ...

Welcome to the AUPHA Exchange. As we look forward to the Annual Meeting in less than two weeks, the 75th anniversary makes me think back on my almost 45 years of engagement with AUPHA. In the early years of AUPHA, we would meet in Washington, DC, where we would connect with health policy and meeting legislators. Since then, AUPHA has become the big tent for health administration education and research. My early mentors in health information technology were Charles Austin and Stuart Boxerman. Both men inspired me in my academic research and teaching. AUPHA has provided me with continuous education, collaboration with colleagues, and the opportunity ...
