Disruptive Innovator is a term I have heard in my career that speaks to understanding the requirements of the customer and seeking to maximize resources to achieve goals disregarded by higher authorities. Through confidence, competence, and candor, Chiral Medical Consulting seeks to disruptively innovate.
Persistently dissatisfied is another phrase spoken that refers to the drive to constantly improve the personnel, processes, and capabilities around your sphere of influence. Chiral Medical Consulting will continue to seek improvement for self and customers.
