Does your team's performance and culture positively reflect your efforts? If the answer is no, ask yourself: Are you setting up others for success? In this episode, Rich is joined by Mark Noon, author of Set Up: Timeless Leadership Skills for Your Success, wherein they discuss how to own your own development if you're not a born leader, how providing strategic opportunities to lead helps individuals be prepared for formal leadership roles, and how to foster a culture of leadership in your organization.

In 2008, Studer Group was on a mission to better understand how women working in healthcare attempt to blend the multiple roles they assume in their lives. We wanted to know more about the unique issues they face on a daily basis and what their employers could do to ensure that they provide the best possible place for these individuals to work. To answer these questions, we conducted an online survey of 7,000 women working in the healthcare field. The findings of this study led to a number of recommendations to employers regarding ways to assist their female employees in dealing with the work-life balance. Now, ten years later, we felt compelled to ask, “How have things changed for women working in this critical employment sector?” Furthermore, with the worldwide response to recent disclosures of sexual harassment cases, we wondered about the related issues faced by women in healthcare. Expanding upon the work we started a decade ago, our newly completed survey looks into the careers and personal lives of women across the United States. Joined by Studer Group President Debbie Ritchie, in today’s episode, we’ll review some of our findings from the survey and discuss their implications on the future of healthcare and those that work within the field.

Is your organization preparing its up and coming leaders for success? Better yet, is your organization learning from those new leaders and adapting to be attractive to younger generations? In this episode, Rich discusses these questions and more with Faye Sullivan.

In a time when patients often decide who their provider of choice is before they ever need to be seen, organizations must connect with their communities to affirm their trustworthiness and results. In this episode, Craig Deao joins us to discuss how, combined with a shift to thinking of and communicating with potential patients as consumers, engaged employees and clinicians drive outcomes.

Have you ever been so run down at work that you just don't know if you can keep going? Most of us have been there. In this episode, Rich shares his own stories of being in this rut, explains how and why we get there, and what we can do to combat it. Get your water bottles ready!
