For this year’s Academy meeting, Ryan will focus his presentation on lab management. This presentation involves logistics, such as arranging and assigning responsibilities, managing time, and setting realistic deadlines. Ryan will also discuss personnel issues, like finding the right team members based on skills, work ethic, and team synergy, as well as effective communication, safety concerns, and liability issues. The goal is to bring a deeper understanding to both seasoned professionals and those who are new to our field of what it means to operate an O&P lab.
