Leveraging social media for change

DATE: Nov. 17-18, 2022 (10:00-5:00 PM ET) TYPE: Virtual, Facilitated DURATION: 2 days ABOUT THIS COURSE The culture of health care tends to view leadership as “solving problems.” But the conventional wisdom of fixing weaknesses (i.e., find what’s wrong and try to correct it) has been shown to be limiting and ineffective in the long term. It can lead to uninspired individual and organizational performance and contribute to demotivation and stress. Focusing on what works and paying more attention to what intrinsically energizes people is a much more effective approach. This interactive course will help participants accurately identify their personal strengths and leverage them using pragmatic strategies. It also offers ways leaders can identify and leverage the strengths of their people and teams to increase work engagement and well-being and drive innovation. EXPECT TO LEARN HOW TO: <ul> <li> recognize the value of a strengths-based approach to leadership;</li> <li>complete a strength-based assessment to uncover your unique strengths, talents and gifts and those of your team;</li> <li>describe how strengths-based approaches can facilitate improved engagement of health care professionals, reduce burnout and lead to better team and patient outcomes;</li> <li>examine strategies to build a strengths-based culture that values the unique gifts that everyone brings to the team and fosters a culture of engagement, diversity and inclusion;</li> <li>create a development plan to build on your strengths, while managing around your blind spots; and</li> <li>identify and encourage strengths-based approaches in peers and teams.</li> </ul> This course can be tailored and delivered* to physicians and/or interdisciplinary teams at your organization, meeting or conference. We’d be happy to work with you to find the right course for you and your organization.

Date: November 24-25, 2022 TYPE: Virtual, Facilitated DURATION: 2 days 10:30 AM - 4:30 PM ET each day ABOUT THIS COURSE The world has experienced a collective trauma through the COVID-19 pandemic. The long-term impact to health care workers serving on the front-lines is incalculable. Canadian physicians were demonstrating disproportionally higher rates of burnout, depression and suicidal ideation before the pandemic: they were already a traumatized workforce. Further mental health impacts and workforce shortages are predicted among health care workers after the pandemic. Medical leaders may be unaware of the role trauma plays at the individual, team and system levels. This course develops leadership skills to foster recovery, build wellness and promote post-traumatic growth in the health care workforce. Delivered as an interactive workshop, it will facilitate a shift to a wellness-informed mindset and encourage you to apply key wellness-informed leadership practices at all levels. EXPECT TO LEARN HOW TO: <ul> <li>explore the types of trauma experienced by physicians;</li> <li>examine the impacts of trauma at the individual, team and system level;</li> <li>reframe physician burnout through a trauma lens;</li> <li>discover the principles of trauma-informed (TI) approaches;</li> <li>analyze how to translate TI principles into leadership practice;</li> <li>recognize how TI principles apply at the system level to create trauma-informed teams and trauma-informed health care organizations; and</li> <li>develop an action plan to bring TI principles to your leadership practice with team/organizational metrics to measure culture shift.</li> </ul> This course can be tailored and delivered* to physicians and/or interdisciplinary teams at your organization, meeting or conference.
