In this week's episode of HPN Liam takes you through the simple, practical steps to make your CV a stand out at your next job application, he shares his views on your CV being your entry way into a new role + just how critical it is as part of the application. 

Although it may sound boring, thoroughly evaluating the format, layout, font and length of your CV is paramount when aligning yourself with the right role for you. 

He also chats about the preparation you can do to make sure the job role you are applying for is not a mismatch therefore preventing time wasting on a workplace that doesn't tick all your boxes in terms of culture, values and vision.

In this episode of HPN Liam chats with Dunja, social worker and case manager about her accidental journey into working with her heart in social work. Together they unpack what it means to listen to the inner voice and passion of yourself and how doing good in an area that does good for your heart also, is rewarding on so many levels. 

As a nurse health care professional, both Liam and Dunja dissect the cost of doing the job of caring and talk about how to confidently and politely call out bad behaviours in the workplace so it can be a safe and feel good working environment for everyone.

Dunja gifts us with two tools that social workers have, to benefit your relationship with yourself and your patients showing us that invaluable insight identifying your values can be have in the job and that using it as a guiding light when you are tired or close to burnout can be incredibly beneficial. 

Lastly, Liam and Dunja dispel the myth of hierarchy and that people in senior roles, or who have worked for longer or are older than you, know better... a lesson both health professionals have learnt on the job.

Liam shares with us his learnings after attending a Brené Brown workshop on leadership. He shares his personal insights around adapting the takeaways to the healthcare industry and highlights the need for more vulnerability and courageous leadership. Pointing out that work cultures that don't shame or blame are often more inclusive, effective and have better outcomes. 

Liam shares that the definition of vulnerability focuses on 3 key components; risk, uncertainty and emotional exposure and that embracing the suck actually makes for a more flexible and authentic leader. He explores that part of being a great leader is the ability to have the hard conversations in real time and that embracing failure in all it's forms is actually a healthy path of progress and change in the workplace. 

He also poses two great questions for you to ponder...

How authentic are you in leadership? 

How sustainable is it?

If you have ever wanted to work on your leadership skills this is the episode for you!

Crossing international waters we chat with Darisha Datt, Program Manager at the Fiji Cancer Society in this episode of HPN to highlight the underpinning public health has on the work nurses do and of course the different paths you can take with your nursing career. With 12 years experience in the Public Health sector as Program Manager Darisha's core focuses are on cancer prevention and cancer care support.

Liam's internship at Medical Services Pacific in Fiji where he met Darisha opened his eyes to the astounding difference between first and third world Public Health systems.... not only are they shatteringly under resourced but the impact that not being able to care properly for patients has on the medical professionals working on the frontline demonstrates just how much we take for granted in a well funded health system.

Darisha shares with us the challenge of trying to provide healthcare without things as simple as adult incontinence pads, stoma bags or even access to enough medication such as panadol,, highlighting the fundamental things that should be supplied by the ministry but just aren't.

An eye opening chat you don't want to miss!

Liam chats with Nichola Browning who has an impressive & extensive nursing career spanning many specialities & disciplines, we hear her baptism of fire in the UK as Nichola speaks to the impact the mentorship of key senior nurses had on her burgeoning career to progress, grow & lead. We also hear her unpack the vitally important part debriefing & reflection have on processing emotionally challenging times to avoid burnout as Liam asks Nichola about her time in MDT practice within an ICU.

Nichola shares a personal story of her time as a project manager in organ transplant that perfectly demonstrates the fact that, as nurses, when we are not at the bedside we often don't feel like we have the skills to offer new roles, however transferable skills really are evident when you look.

This episode also tackles Imposter Syndrome, transition shock & psychological safety among peers and leadership within units, cultivating the qualities of being curious to grow. 

Lastly Nicola tells us her lived experience on the other-side of the healthcare system when she recounts the moments her daughter suffered a stoke and how moving through that time has opened up opportunities to be a voice of change for young people in the same position.

In this episode of HPN Liam chats with Dan Mabon about the differences between the Australian + British health care systems + just how lucky Australia is in the face of a global pandemic. We hear about our nursing colleagues in the UK on the frontline who are not only extremely underpaid but undervalued in the world's most trusted profession of nursing + as a result, both men chat about their contribution to alleviate the pressure Covid has brought to our shores.

We also about the moment every nurse has... of sitting with someone as they pass away + how that has shaped nurses to being extremely empathetic even after the patient has passed. They both dig into the unique quality nursing brings to life, the ability to reflect not just on the job but in all areas, using the data from that reflection as fuel to move forward.

Dan also reveals the work involved in setting up a HDU + how that has strengthened his management style, defining what makes a good leader by giving his key tips + tricks for creating a great, cohesive environment that more reflects a family than a workplace.
