There are two big mistakes in life: 1. Worrying about what other people think about you. 2. Believing that other people think about you in the first place. Fight back. Stop worrying about what others think, be yourself, and live according to your values.

Owning up to your mistakes doesn’t cast doubt on your credibility. Admitting you were wrong shows that you care about getting it right. Recognizing moments of bad judgment is a step toward demonstrating good judgment. Issuing a correction is a mark of intellectual integrity.

We are fortunate to have a truly exceptional Standardized Patient program and today was our annual SP appreciation event. SP’s are trained to portray patients to improve healthcare provider communication and physical exam skills and ours are amazing. Thank you!! @ASPE_Tweets

The essential question: "What makes a team more than the sum of its parts?...the single most important driver of team performance [?] ... not the skills, intelligence or personality of team’s members, but rather the quality of the team’s interactions..." @WorkFearlessly @yanche
The shift towards virtual work and the stressors we are subject to do not always spell disaster for teams. As with any human connection, it’s about putting in the work – and that effort must begin with leaders.    @yanche   knowledge.insead.edu/blog/in…

Over 50 team members from Prenatal, L&D, Mother/Baby and anesthesia participated (live or via zoom) in today’s sim testing response to a precipitous preterm delivery with cord prolapse and breach presentation. It was amazing. #cultureofsafety #highlyengagedteam
