Episode 07: Patients Come Second Oct 24, 2022

Show notes

Chris, Manoj, and Greg discuss Patients Come Second on the episode today. The book Patients Come Second shakes up the traditional healthcare model, arguing that in order to care for and retain patients, leaders must first create exceptional teams and find ways to engage nurses, administrative staff, physicians, supervisors, and even housekeeping staff and switchboard operators. By connecting employees’ work with a higher purpose and equipping them with the tools to become leaders themselves, patient care can be dramatically transformed. And with continuing healthcare changes on the horizon and ever-rising pressure to acquire and keep patients, doing so now is more important than ever.

Episode 06: Act Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader Oct 05, 2022

Show notes

Chris, Manoj and Greg talk about the book Act Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader by Herminia Ibarra. Act Like a Leader, Think Like
a Leader looks to challenge this method of leadership development based around the theory of “Outsight”. With this theory you are encouraged to see leadership growth as something that is achieved from the outside in, and not the reverse. The Outsight principle is based around altering your self-identity through small yet impactful changes that will transform your perception of personal limitations. As the book title suggests, Herminia Ibarra holds the belief that the most effective way to do this is “to plunge yourself into new projects and activities, interact with very different kinds of people, and experiment with unfamiliar ways of getting
things done”. There are three basic pillars of Outsight detailed within the book:

Redefine your job
Redefine your network (network across and out)
Redefine yourself (be more playful with yourself) The key aim of Act Like a Leader, Think Like a Leader is to force the reader to understand that the leadership approach that has brought them success so far, may not be fit for purpose when they step up to a new role. How can they change to meet the challenge?
