Dr. Sindhu Koshy was not the official managing partner.
She was the one handling the schedules, hiring, staffing issues, meetings, day-to-day operations, recognition, and the details that kept the practice moving.
Everyone knew it.
The title never quite caught up.
In this episode of The Other Side of Leadership, Dr. Koshy talks about the leadership women often perform before anyone names it, pays it, or protects it.
She also shares a story many women in medicine will recognize: being told there was no money in the budget for a leadership role she was doing, then watching money appear when a male physician took over.
Healthcare loves to call this complicated.
Women usually call it Tuesday.
