I have over 10 years of experience in the operating room, with the last 5 years dedicated to leading a team of 10+ healthcare professionals. My leadership has been instrumental in maintaining a high standard of patient care, ensuring efficient surgical procedures, and fostering a collaborative environment among team members.

I thrive under pressure and have developed effective stress management techniques, such as prioritizing tasks, maintaining clear communication, and staying calm in emergencies. I also ensure that my team is well-prepared and confident, which helps mitigate stress during critical moments.

In one instance, there was a conflict between two team members during a procedure. I addressed the issue immediately by facilitating a private discussion to understand both perspectives and mediating a resolution that aligned with our team’s goals and patient care standards.

I implement regular training sessions, conduct routine audits of safety protocols, and encourage a culture of accountability among team members. I also stay updated on the latest safety guidelines and ensure that all staff are informed and adhere to them during every procedure.

I motivate my team by recognizing individual and collective achievements, providing constructive feedback, and offering opportunities for professional development. I also ensure that each team member feels valued and supported, which enhances their performance and commitment to patient care.
