Kick off CLIMB Online 2026 with our keynote presentation "From Burnout to Breakthrough: Reimagining Radiology Leadership for Well-Being, Innovation, and Impact" presented by Chris Salem, Award Winning Executive Coach & Author and CEO of Sustainable Success Coaching & Consulting (CRS Group Holdings, LLC). The session will take place live on Thursday, March 19 at 9:30 AM ET and a recording will be available as part of the CLIMB 2026 On-Demand Library.
Radiology stands at a pivotal crossroads. Across the field, departments are facing relentless workloads, persistent staffing shortages, and widespread burnout—all while navigating rapid technological change, reimbursement cuts, and evolving business models. Yet beneath these challenges lies immense, untapped potential.
In this engaging and thought-provoking keynote, attendees are invited to confront the very barriers holding their departments back—inefficient workflows, disengaged teams, outdated financial strategies, and cultures where too many voices go unheard.
This keynote dares radiology leaders to imagine what’s possible beyond survival mode. Together, we’ll explore how bold, people-first leadership can transform staffing models, strengthen inclusion, and build cultures where well-being and excellence go hand in hand.
Through real-world case studies, powerful storytelling, and actionable frameworks, participants will discover how to:
• Prioritize team wellness as a strategic advantage.
• Leverage technology as a force multiplier for innovation.
• Streamline operations to drive efficiency and engagement.
• Foster diverse, resilient teams united by purpose and pride.
Because the future of radiology isn’t just about reading images faster—it’s about leading with
vision, empathy, and heart to create a thriving specialty prepared for whatever comes next.

Rarely a year goes by when a medical imaging administrator does not have a project to manage, whether it be replacing legacy equipment or starting a new service. Regardless of the scope of the project, its successful implementation is dependent on effective project management. Some projects are organization-wide, and the medical imaging administrator will be a member of the team; other projects are “imaging-centric” so the administrator leads the project. This presentation will include basic terminology and tools used to manage any project. A case study will be presented to illustrate all the steps.
