In this episode of The Interconnectedness of Things, hosts Emily Nava and Dr. Andrew Hutson sit down with Michelle McClay, Chief Strategic Integration Officer at Ascension, to explore how healthcare systems can work smarter—without losing their human touch.

- How automation can support, but not replace healthcare professionals
- Why the future of healthcare hinges on collaboration and interdependence between teams
- The vital role of data in decision-making (and how to avoid data overwhelm)
- Creating a culture of mentorship, feedback, and early career development
- What she wishes she'd known at the start of her career—and what she tells young professionals now
