  • Book Club Ep. 012: Tribal Leadership: Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization

    Book Club Ep. 012: Tribal Leadership: Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization
    Jul 19 2024
    This month, the CMS Book Club discusses "Tribal Leadership: Leveraging Natural Groups to Build a Thriving Organization." CMS works closely with healthcare organizations to help improve culture via conversations, which aligns with the thesis of this book, which is that how we talk to one another is a primary driver of culture in an organization. Can every organization achieve a top-level culture? How do you navigate moving between different work settings (floors, professions, hospitals) with drastically different work cultures? How do you protect yourself from toxic culture while still trying to make things better? How can teams, sports, and labor dynamics inform what we do to make work better for our people? www.harvardmedsim.org

  • Book Club Ep. 011: Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well (Amy Edmondson)

    Book Club Ep. 011: Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well (Amy Edmondson)
    May 10 2024
    Join the reconvened Center for Medical Simulation Book Club as we discuss Amy Edmondson's excellent "Right Kind of Wrong: The Science of Failing Well." Featuring Roxane Gardner, Grace Ng, Jenny Rudolph, Chris Roussin, Lon Setnik, Laura Gay Majerus, James Lipshaw, Henrique Arantes, Hannah Lawn, Melissa White, Saqib Dara, and Lia Cruz. In this episode: A mildly spicy conversation around using outcomes to determine if we've failed. When should we use the retrospect-oscope to determine whether we did a good job? Does it matter more that we land the jump or that we took the right steps to set it up? Two obvious lessons learned from the new era of college sports: You need to a) develop your people over time and then b) pay them enough that they stay.

  • Brief Debriefings #013: Onboarding Non-Clinical Teams into Simulation

    Brief Debriefings #013: Onboarding Non-Clinical Teams into Simulation
    Mar 29 2024
    Not every simulation center has a readiness plan in place for onboarding new simulation staff, particularly those without clinical experience. At CMS, we begin by having our new staff participate as learners in our weeklong Healthcare Simulation Essentials course, immersing them in our teaching and debriefing strategies. In this week's Brief Debriefing, we're speaking with Jenny Bourque and Sam Huang, respectively our new Education Coordinator and Simulation Technician, to learn from their perspective and experience as newcomers to simulation but experts in their own fields at the end of their 5 day course. Enjoy!
