PME article shares how our experiences unlock new insights for communicators

A Life in a Day is an experience like no other that transforms patient centric thinking and behaviour throughout your organisation and increasing passion and commitment by enabling individuals to appreciate the importance their role can have in improving patient lives.

I would argue the quality of the insight is everything. The adage ‘we get back what we put in’ comes to mind. In all our work we should be striving for the best insights possible and that, of course, includes understanding the lives of those we are trying to help with our health innovations.
