How can you make your mark and shape nutrition care for the future? What must you do to grow and promote your authority as a trusted professional? And how can you leverage your authority into dynamic leadership?

Dr. Susan Finn helps answer these questions as she shares her own wisdom and the voices of other nutrition change-makers and describes the three pillars that support nutrition authority for dietetics professionals-learning from our history, relying on science as a foundation, and exploring new frontiers.

The knowledge and experience Dr. Finn has gained as a collaborator, leader, and nutrition expert in business, government, and public health guides professionals of today and tomorrow to succeed in any venue. Interviews with leading nutrition professionals provide inside views and advice from dietitians on the ground floor of varied enterprises.

From the history of our profession's founders and leaders to establishing nutrition science as the keystone of dietetic practice and the application of emerging thinking as dietitians lead explorations into new territory, Nutrition Authority: Perspective on Opportunities will inspire anyone considering the field, starting out, and making their next career move to assert their leadership and authority in whatever choices they make.
