I’m back behind the microphone as I return from a month-long break from the show.

In this episode I take on the challenge of discussing hospice leadership. 

I review some of my own challenges in my leadership experience. I also spend some time discussing the last 7 months I have spent in the field, and how much stress and emotion is involved.

I also mention that I would share some of my favorite leadership books here in the show notes.

Leaders Eat Last

It’s Your Ship

Developing the Leader Within You

Developing the Leaders Around You

The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership

The Eight Paradoxes of Great Leadership (highly recommend)

I discuss some of the behaviors by hospice leadership that I think can be very toxic. I also share my thoughts on how leadership should handle staff members who are struggling.

Ultimately, I believe that the success of any hospice agency should be attributed to the field staff. Failures by the agency should first be examined by leadership to make sure the problem isn’t process related.
