Think about running an organization where success depends upon the ability to operate consistently at the outer limits of human, technical, and financial possibility—where outcomes are measured by the meaningful survivorship of innocent lives. Think NASA—back-up systems on top of back-up systems—where failure is not an option. Think of a high-performance culture of brilliant, highly trained people committed to work collaboratively to solve problems whose complexity defies individual effort. Think about going to work every morning knowing that today you have the opportunity to save a child’s life. Think goose bumps, tears, fears, hope, passion, and joy. Call it CHOC Children’s.
