Many women aspire to hold leadership positions but are held back by their own insecurities. In this episode of Next Up, we're speaking with Patty McClimon, the Senior Vice President of Strategic and Facilities Planning for Nationwide Children's Hospital, about how women can rise to leadership roles in healthcare organizations.

We"re talking with Dr. Mandy Cohen, Secretary of the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), on what it takes to move to the C-suite and beyond.
