Burnis D. Breland,

Pharmaceutical Economics and Policy

I would like to thank Dr. John R. Reynolds and Mr. William A. Gouveia for their wonderful hospitality and Northeastern University for the opportunity to present the 22nd Annual John W. Webb Lecture. I would also like to acknowledge the presence of Mr. John W. Webb and thank him for his inspiration and leadership in hospital pharmacy practice; I especially thank him for being here today. I want to share a message of love for pharmacy and call for a renewal of emphasis in advancing our practice roles to better serve our patients. To some of our more experienced leaders and previous Webb lecturers, I may say nothing new, but I am going to remind you of things you already know. To our younger practitioners, residents, and students, I hope to seed a vision for hospital pharmacy practice in the future and encourage a passionate drive toward leadership and management excellence in pharmacy practice. I hope to encourage you to believe what you know and live what you believe.
