🤝 In a world that often feels fragmented - imece - reminds us: community is built not by convenience, but by commitment. Collective hands planting a garden or rallying of friends to tackle a challenge together.

Lasting bonds form when we choose each other over ease.

🎓 Grateful to support and teach the next generation of healthcare leaders. As students dive into their studies with purpose it reminds me why of my why - to make a real difference in people's lives.

Here's to a semester of growth, discovery, & building the skills that will shape the future!

Clarity isn’t about control…it’s about presence. A leader doesn’t always have answers…they hold space for discovery.

A recent visit to this quiet corner of the FDR Memorial reminded me that leadership must always serve liberty and compassion
A call to vigilance
We honor not by preserving stone, but by living the principles carved into it

Each of us must do our part

Triple failure…abandoning vulnerable patients counting on its findings, medical professionals without needed evidence-based guidance, & squandering invested taxpayer dollars. These types of decisions prioritize short-term budget adjustments over public health & fiscal responsibility.

"By canceling a multi-year study of older people with lung disease – a few months before it was due to end – the Trump administration has left patients without help, doctors without answers, & wasted taxpayer dollars" says Mary B. Rice, MD, MPH

“One who doesn't know how to listen cannot know how to choose”

“Dinlemesini bilmeyen, seçmesini de bilemez."

- Yunus Emre

“For right choice, first right listening is required”

Rather than seeing missed opportunities as personal failures, invite yourself and others to embrace the fundamental incompleteness of human existence. There's wisdom in recognizing that no life can contain all possibilities…this is simply the nature of being human.

Interesting and fun…If species membership were also unknown (you might be human, dog, elephant, etc.), it would dramatically expand the scope of thought. Push toward principles that consider the interests of all sentient beings.

Healthcare leaders have a higher threshold for their stress response, which normalizes crisis & spreads stress. Ultimately leading to lower productivity for themselves & the team.

Your most powerful tool? Recognizing your personal stress response & how to mitigate it.

Up to 70% of work time is in meetings

Ask 4 questions

Is my expertise required?

Will a decision affecting my area be made?

Is my presence irreplaceable?

Is this a relationship-building opportunity?

2 “yes” answers = attend personally

1 “yes” = delegate

0 “yes” = decline with explanation

When poor decisions are made, we rarely ask: “What time of day was it?” Yet cognitive energy follows predictable patterns. The same decision at 9am vs 4pm often yields different outcomes.

What is 1 underrated skill? Knowing when NOT to decide.

Why do so many ignore personal productivity? The competency that enables all others. The best leaders aren’t just strategic thinkers but masters of their cognitive energy.

What if productivity wasn’t just personal preference but a skill we could develop?

Thoughts on rain:
In the space between cloud and earth, raindrops fall…neither where they were nor where they will be. This liminal state mirrors our own existence: always suspended between memory and possibility.

"In the in-between moments, in the liminal spaces, we are remade." - Elif Shafak

Your most valuable leadership asset might be those moments when you appear to be doing nothing at all.

The spaces between your thoughts are where wisdom emerges. This time of “keyif” or purposeful pauses supports:

Strategic clarity
EQ
Decisions
Innovation
Sustainability

I've arrived in Cape Coral, FL to present my workshop, "Aligning Quality Metrics with PX Goals," emphasizing that PX is fundamentally intertwined with quality of care.
My presentation explores practical approaches to "zipper up" quality & PX, creating a unified framework.
