It’s common for leaders to focus on improving results by identifying and resolving problems. However, this problem-solving approach often leads to employee resistance, defensiveness and disengagement.
In Beyond Problem Solving: Leading with Appreciative Inquiry, participants learn to utilize a strengths-based approach to generate an environment that fosters motivation, creativity and collaboration. This approach leads to visionary thinking, engaged teams and innovative results.
This retreat is designed for clinical, non-clinical and administrative health care leaders who want to build on their team’s strengths to achieve organizational outcomes, foster transformational change and have a more positive impact on patient care.
Join other health care leaders on Oct. 11, 2024, 9 a.m. to noon, on RUSH University’s Illinois Medical District campus.
This was an excellent class for leaders or aspiring leaders. The 5-D methodology is a very great process to use when creating and fostering change. The delivery of this method was well done with using an integrative approach.
