Living Like a Leader: A day in the life of Paul Viviano, CEO of Children's Hospital Los Angeles
“When the pandemic first showed up, I asked our leaders who could do so safely to be present, to be here, be visible and ensure we are leading by example since we are designated as an essential service. There was a lot of pressure to have team members work remotely, but I asked my direct reports to refrain from working from home routinely. I wanted our presence to be felt by the entire team.”
On August 11, 2020, Becker’s Hospital Review featured Children’s Hospital Los Angeles CEO, Paul Viviano, to learn what a typical day looks like for him. In the article, Viviano, who has been leading the hospital since late 2015, shared that he decided to take the role to lead the top safety net children’s hospital in California because he “sees it as giving every single child- regardless of their family’s financial status- the best chance to survive and thrive, to have a life that’s productive and promising,” he said. “No one could do better in providing that opportunity to the precious children that have been entrusted to us.”
