Health System Website Revamp? How to Win Over Stakeholders
When starting a health system website revamp, numerous decisions have to be made. What are the priorities? Who will have the final word? How will you align your decisions with your health system’s strategic plan?
But most importantly, how will you engage your stakeholders and win their approval when doing a health system website revamp?
