Hi Histonetters , Over the past few weeks, the histology community has been opening up about the real pressures labs are facing — staffing shortages, rising complexity, and teams stretched thinner than ever. This week, I’m shifting the conversation toward something more productive:
What can we actually do about it? Tomorrow, I’m sharing a new post that outlines grounded, realistic steps both techs and leaders can take to navigate this moment with more clarity and less strain. For leaders like you, a few themes stand out: * Communicate expectations openly and consistently * Advocate upward with specifics, not generalities * Create micro‑growth opportunities that keep techs engaged * Stay flexible where it makes a meaningful difference None of these require major budget changes. They’re small, strategic adjustments that help stabilize teams and reduce burnout. If you’d like to catch the post when it goes live tomorrow, you can follow along here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/reliasolutions/ And if you’re seeing shifts in your lab — or wondering how to adapt your hiring strategy to the current market — I’m always here to talk it through. Sometimes the solution is a new hire. Sometimes it’s a smarter approach to the team you already have. Warmly, Pam "The secret of getting ahead is getting started." - Mark Twain. Thank You! Pam M.
