For the second time in Charting Pediatrics history, we brought a live audience together to watch the taping of an episode with a guest who has made an everlasting impression on our hospital system. This time, the show was for our colleagues here at Children’s Hospital Colorado.  Our guest is one of the top healthcare executives within pediatric hospitals in North America. Don’t just take our word for it; she was recently selected to be the chair of the board of trustees for the entire Children’s Hospital Association. Under her leadership, Children’s Colorado has been routinely identified as one of the country’s top 10 pediatric healthcare systems. In recent years, her advocacy for greater pediatric behavioral healthcare is a notable example of her dedication to research and innovation.  In today’s episode, we welcome Jena Hausmann, the CEO and president of Children’s Colorado. “I think leaders really should be authentic and should role model, always, their true leadership self and impact. I do think it is important for any of us to see ourselves reflected in whether it’s gender or race or ethnicity or age or you name it,” says Hausmann.  Some highlights from this episode include:   Jena’s career evolution and how she landed in her current role How to make an impression in healthcare administration The role that mentors play in career growth  The example she aims to set for women in leadership How Jena’s authenticity and vulnerability enhance her leadership The trends in U.S. healthcare that will impact how we care for kids For more information on Children’s Colorado, visit: childrenscolorado.org
