Overcoming Internal and External Barriers w/ Alisha Merlo

Join Kamaar, George, and Alisha Merlo, the Senior Director of Professional Relations for Colorescience, as they talk overcoming internal and external barriers. They also talk about:

The Patient Experience: From first contact to last touch point, each encounter is an opportunity to differentiate yourself.
The Team Experience: How your team feels when they are with you and when they think and talk about work and the affect it has on how they interact with patients.
The Community Experience: How your community views your business and you as an individual.

Alisha and her husband of 27 years call beautiful San Diego home. She has a heart for community service, is active in her church outreach programs and is passionate about raising her voice to end human trafficking.
