Global Hand Surgery with Guest Jim Chang

March 02, 2025 • Chuck and Chris and Jim Chang • Season 6 • Episode 4

Chuck and Chris welcome Jim Chang from Stanford University for a deep dive on two really amazing topics. First, we discuss Jim's leadership of the IFSSH Triannual Meeting in Washington DC March 24-28. And second, we discuss global reconstructive surgery and Jim's work in this area, specifically with Resurg International. Join us for interesting conversation (and then join us in DC). Jim had much to share about psychic compensation and 4 tenants to successful international work: finding the right host, being a good guest, making a lasting impact, and not competing with other organizations.
