1 Understand your mutual value proposition

Before you start a cross-functional patient advocacy project with an academic or research institution, you need to understand what value you can offer and receive from each other. For example, you may want to collaborate with an institution to access their expertise, facilities, or networks, while they may want to leverage your insights, experience, or connections. You need to clearly communicate your value proposition to each other, and align your objectives, outcomes, and expectations. You also need to establish trust and respect, and acknowledge each other's contributions and perspectives.

We all going to be patients one day or relatives of a patient close to our hearts .We all know medical science is not mathematics.Many factors come into the play to decide the outcomes.One only expects that each person plays her his role with clarity within limits of skills acquired.Doctor as captain of the ship is expected to reveal what is the present medical interpretation of the suffering and how she he plans to take the next step and the next.Each time reveal it's need, known aspects, benefits costs and side-effects.How a test procedure or operation might change the management or reveal more which would be beneficial to the sick.The sick & relatives are expected to reveal in time what is known to them or what else do they want to know.

2 Define your roles and responsibilities

Another key step to align cross-functional patient advocacy projects with academic and research institutions is to define your roles and responsibilities. You need to clarify who will do what, when, how, and why, and how you will coordinate and communicate with each other. You also need to agree on the scope, budget, timeline, and deliverables of your project, and how you will measure and report your progress and impact. You should document your roles and responsibilities in a written agreement, such as a memorandum of understanding (MOU), a contract, or a project charter.

One must know self with its qualification,scope ,skills acquired & limitations.Clarity of communication in time adds to one's value.Honest questions that arise in the mind of a newbie or experienced expert need freedom of expression.Aims,Purpose of the efforts, the destination,probable timeline and path to be trailed should be drawn clearly.Then each has responsibility to reveal how much situation they have understood at all times according to their background.One should be clear logical in expressing ones analysis and recommendations in time when asked to or when project or team or the cause the purpose needs them .

3 Manage your risks and challenges

Working with academic and research institutions can also pose some risks and challenges for your cross-functional patient advocacy project. For example, you may encounter ethical, legal, or regulatory issues, such as data privacy, consent, or ownership. You may also face cultural or organizational differences, such as different decision-making processes, communication styles, or priorities. You need to identify and assess your potential risks and challenges, and plan how to mitigate or resolve them. You should also have a contingency plan in case of unforeseen changes or conflicts.

Clarity in communication needs both sides to reveal purpose values paths tools costs benefits disadvantage and limitations of the project one envisages to team up with. Decision making roles and criteria benchmarks revealed recorded ,agreed upon. Entry ,why I am being selected what are team or leaders expectations clarified.Exit points & norms and point of no return marked out in the probable journey .Right words at right time is must as the journey begins .Silence means compliance or conspiracy mutually agreed .Recording of meetings becomes important legally to prevent or face and win a conflict of interests or decisions .For each action including inaction one should be ready to accept rewards or punishment .Blame can be fixed easily then.

4 Leverage your strengths and resources

One of the benefits of aligning cross-functional patient advocacy projects with academic and research institutions is that you can leverage your strengths and resources to achieve your common goals. For example, you can use your patient advocacy skills to engage and mobilize your patient community, raise awareness and support, and advocate for change. You can also use your resources, such as your network, platform, or funding, to facilitate and enhance your project. Similarly, you can tap into the strengths and resources of your academic or research partners, such as their knowledge, expertise, or technology, to inform and improve your project.
