Presentation Slides: Culture Eats Accountability for Breakfast
Learning Objectives
This workshop will invite participants to rethink the importance of team culture by:
- Understanding ‘whole-mind’ thinking
- Leading inter-professional collaboration
- Shifting the leadership culture of their teams.
Summary
Team-based primary care in Ontario is driven by a ‘left-brain’ approach to healthcare. Accountability, fiscal restraint, governance, policy, structure, patient statistics- these are the things that drive Ministry-funded primary care organizations. But for the people leading these teams, the need to embrace ‘right-brain’ thinking brings a healthy balance to the experience. Purpose, collaboration, trust, creativity, relationships and patient stories- these are the things that inspire a high performance team culture. Participants will be invited to reflect on their own team’s ethos and identify new ways of balancing the demands of accountability with the desire for a thriving team environment. They will hear how taking a ‘whole-brain’ approach to leadership can create a healthier high performance team culture. And they will be invited to consider how they might shift the leadership culture of their team by unleashing the leadership potential of all team members.
