Description

Welcome to The Second Skillset podcast series! In this first episode, our panelists explore why non-clinical competencies are no longer optional for cardiologists navigating today's evolving healthcare systems. The conversation highlights how the cardiologist's role is expanding beyond clinical care to include leadership and system-level influence. Listeners will gain insight into the core non-clinical skill domains: leadership, business, and communication. They will also learn how to assess their own strengths and gaps using a structured self-inventory tool.
