Executive Presence- What does it mean and why is it important in 2024?
Chuck and Chris discuss patients with dupuytrens disease (in office and in the OR) including our protocols for care after formal surgery. We also discuss some challenges with needle procedures in the office. We touch on our trial of AI for clinic note generation and look forward to listener comments. And finally, we touch on leadership with a deep dive on the HBR article: The New Rules of Executive Presence by Sylvia Ann Hewlett. This article compares leadership criteria from 2012 to 2022 and the differences in priorities are great discussion points.

A fantastic, entertaining, and highly educational podcast! Thank you for taking the time to do this. It is invaluable to me and has helped my practice in all aspects.
Thank you for all that you do!
Chris and Chuck, I want to thank you so much for creating this podcast which has provided me the opportunity to listen and learn about the hand and upper extremity over the past year and half while I study for my CHT. I am happy to announce that I have successfully passed my CHT exam on the first attempt. Listening the to Upper Hand podcast helped me to understand the surgeon’s perspective. I really enjoyed and appreciated the collaboration episodes and discussions with Macy. You helped me make my studying experience more interactive and I have learned a great deal from you both. Thank you for answering my questions I had along the way while I studied for my exam. I plan to continue to listen and learn to the Upper Hand podcast as I continue into my professional career as a CHT.
