Personal Sacrifice To Be Able To Be In The Medical Field.

Need to be able to communicate on all levels. Be confident with your surgeons to the driver. Be a mentor for your staff.

Core Of The Business.
Marketing Director:
Pros: In the core of the company and what holds all the departments/divisions together towards one goal.
Cons: When the sales are doing great a marketing department is rarely congratulated. When the sales go down, marketing is the first to be blamed.
This is why it is crucial to have measurable KPI's to be able to judge well the performance of the department.
