Trust is a critical component of any healthy society. In health care, any potential erosion of trust can have negative impacts on the field as a whole. In this Leadership Dialogue conversation, Tina Freese Decker, president and CEO of Corewell Health and 2025 AHA board chair, talks with two health care leaders, Lynn Hanessian, former chief health strategist at Edelman, and Robert Trestman, M.D., Ph.D., chair of psychiatry and behavioral medicine at Carilion Clinic, about why trust is eroding in society, how that impacts patient care, and what leaders can do to restore and strengthen it.
