This episode is all about leadership.
Everyone in hospice is a leader, and being a leader is completely different than being a boss.
In this episode I provide some practical advice to help make sure we never lose our perspective on what our nurses go through every day. I encourage administrators and clinical directors to do ride alongs with a field nurse at least twice a year.
I spend quite a bit of time talking about avoiding spending a lot of time trying to place blame for agency failures. In a very strange turn of events, I spend time talking about the dangers of gaslighting when trying to always place blame when mistakes happen.
At the end of the show I recommend the following books to help us all grow as leaders.
Leaders Eat Last - Simon Sinek
The Speed of Trust - Stephen Covey
It’s your Ship - Michael Abroshoff
Developing the leader within you - John Maxwell
Developing the leaders around you - John Maxwell
Becoming a person of influence - John Maxwell
The 21 Irrefutable laws of leadership - John Maxwell
The 8 paradoxes of great leadership - Tim Elmore
In a pit with a lion on a snowy day - Mark Batterson
