Dr. Jo Shapiro was the founding Director of the Center for Professionalism and Peer Support at Brigham and Women’s Hospital and is an associate professor of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery at Harvard Medical School.. 

Dr. Shapiro saw early on how the culture of medicine needed to better support physicians and how physicians could support each other. The center was intentionally designed to provide practical applications through programs that have become models for other institutions. Dr. Shapiro continues to educate and assist organizations in developing specific programmatic and educational approaches, such as peer support, well-being programs, professionalism initiatives, and conflict management.

We are so excited to bring Dr. Shapiro on to the show to find out why peer support is such a powerful solution to emotional well-being. Tune in as we explore organizational change, how to best support leaders, give people agency, combat isolation and how we can all be partners, not victims, in organizational change.

Through discussions on leadership development, stress management, conflict resolution, and time management, listeners gain insights into achieving work-life balance, overcoming the struggles of being overworked, and fostering personal growth in the ever-evolving workplace.

If you are like many of the clinicians and healthcare leaders we have worked with over the past 30 years, you have experienced the tension between completing routine tasks and practicing at the top of your license or delivering your full scope of practice since the beginning of your career!

The tension is real. And the struggle to balance this tension is significant because safe, quality care is dependent on both.  

As a leader, you probably already realize one is not more important than the other.

In this episode, we talk about the habits that influence this tension between tasks and scope of practice.  Florence Nightingale recognized the importance of understanding habits more than 150 years ago when she said, “This hospital is so busy, in such a hurry that we are falling into bad habits before we are aware.”

Toward the close of the episode, we share how healthcare leaders can begin to support their teams to leverage both the fulfillment of routine tasks and practice to their full scope of practice. 

It’s obvious that you realize this tension isn’t going away, so listen to the episode and get a fresh perspective on how to manage it!

Through discussions on leadership development, stress management, conflict resolution, and time management, listeners gain insights into achieving work-life balance, overcoming the struggles of being overworked, and fostering personal growth in the ever-evolving workplace.

The past year has been challenging for everyone, but it has been especially challenging for those working in the healthcare system.

The front-line clinicians and staff have experienced extraordinary challenges and trauma, and the healthcare leaders who support them have also faced challenges they never imagined.

“I think that our healthcare system and our healthcare leaders have been remarkable in their response,” says Robyn Begley.

During the episode we interview Dr. Robyn Begley, the Chief Executive Officer of the American Organization for Nursing Leadership (AONL). We have an opportunity to talk with Robyn about the longitudinal study AONL conducted in July 2020 and repeated in January and February of 2021 to examine the impact of COVID on nursing leadership.

Despite all the challenges, there have also been, what some would call “silver linings” in the chaos and challenges that have blanketed and rained down on the healthcare system. Robyn talks about some of those “silver linings” with us.

Robyn shares some of the greatest challenges she’s seen healthcare leaders experience over the past 14 months.  We also talk about some of the greatest challenges faced by leaders when it comes to their own well-being and work life balance.

During the interview Robyn also describes some of the strategies AONL is putting in place to support healthcare leaders.

As we wrap up the interview Robyn shares some words of gratitude and encouragement for healthcare leaders.
