Creating Greater Accountability Across Lab Operations

<p>Strong lab operations depend on more than having the right processes in place. Teams also need clear priorities; shared expectations; and a culture in which people follow through on commitments and understand how their work affects the broader organization.<br />
This roundtable will give attendees the opportunity to compare approaches for strengthening a culture of delivery across their labs. The discussion will explore how leaders can set clearer expectations; create accountability without micromanaging; address recurring barriers that slow progress; and help staff balance competing demands.
