HISA Exclusive Event
Breakfast with Trish Greenhalgh OBE
Oxford University Professor Trish Greenhalgh asks:
Why do so many well-intentioned technology programmes fail? #WhatCouldGoWrong?
Reserve your seat
Who remembers a failed technology project in healthcare?
Why do some programmes become “bigger than Ben Hur” with all the theatrics of a Hollywood production – and then fail at the box office?
Why do others become forgotten or just abandoned?
If you have been part of a health technology program in need of resuscitation – you will sympathise and learn from Prof Trish Greenhalgh’s breakfast presentation: Why do health IT systems fail?
Prof Greenhalgh talks about the application of an insightful tool to assist early decision-making.
Keep your programme on track! Join us for a robust discussion and to hear about ways to avoid failure.
