Opening Keynote Address
Tango: Lessons for Life

This keynote presentation is intended to inspire us and enhance our listening and communication skills. Through the metaphors derived from Argentinian Tango, I will share the foundations of lead and follow, emphasizing the sensitivity and accountability required of leadership and the often ignored strength and agility of the follower. Indeed, we will celebrate the virtues of following, not as something passive or weak, but as responsible and resilient. We also explore the paradox of interleading within a partnership or team. Ultimately, we are all followers when it comes to our patients’ well-being. When we listen, we are guided and led by our patients’ needs and our professional ethos.
