Utilize both "big picture" and detailed "systems thinking" when analyzing issues and making decisions
Align clinical, tactical operations with the health center's mission, vision, and values
Manage change among the clinical staff as the health center moves into new care models (e.g., Patient Centered Medical Home model)
Actively work to integrate Public/Population Health issues with routine delivery of primary care
