Ethics
A careful bridge between psychiatry and organizational practice
With Brainspark Strategies I sit at the intersection of two very different worlds: the clinical, ethical and scientifically grounded practice of psychiatry, and the more structured, often commercially inspired world of organizational and business models.
It matters to me to keep a clear watch over the principles and boundaries that come with being a physician-psychiatrist. Within that, I look for the balance with designing practical tools and project proposals that also apply outside the clinic. Curious what these principles involve?
