AI is not going to replace radiologists. But it is going to transform how they work — and most health systems have no idea how to govern that transformation responsibly.

Dr. Shlomit Stein, Professor of Radiology at Hofstra Northwell and Director of AI for Enterprise Imaging at Northwell Health, has built the governance model that actually works. In this episode, she explains why she replaced "AI governance" with "AI management and coordination," how agile working groups make faster and better decisions than top-down committees, and why withholding AI from radiology residents is the wrong call. A must-listen for any leader navigating AI at scale.

What do you do when you know what your patients need, but no one will pay for it?

Josh Gregoire, DNP, RN, AVP of Quality and Population Health at Valley Health System, has built programs the system was not ready to fund. His work includes a Food as Medicine program, an LGBTQ primary care center, and an IRB-approved maternal health trial.

In this episode, Josh shares how he uses community support, proof of concept, and strong relationships to move ideas forward. He also explains what it means to lead by influence and how to create an "army of problem solvers" when your team is small, but your mission is big.
