Purpose

Dr Aisling Diamond has developed her own company which provides medical cover to large events and provision of support to artists arriving in this country. She grew this company to international level without support and will share some leadership lessons from her journey.

 

The company was designed to stop the ‘hot potato’ routine which is practiced and that enables all patients to be referred to Emergency Departments without challenge. The standards practiced by this company persistently improve and outperform the standard established by the industry. The session will include exploring the practical elements of developing an idea into a business.
