Talent is over-hyped.

- Are you on time?
- Do you work hard?
- Are you coachable?
- Can you be trusted?
- Do you accept your role?
- Do you help the team win?
- Do you make the right plays?
- Do you bring positive energy?

Talent, without the list above, is no fun for anyone.

In the wake of the falling of now TWO they-who-shall-not-be-named CMGs in emergency medicine…

I am reminded how lucky I am to work with some of the best of the “good ones”.
Times are tough, but leadership matters.
And, physician leadership really matters.

Dr. Jess Kirby @EMDrChick and Dr. Heidi Knowles (and #ACEP Board member) @HeidiKnowles17 chat with @DrRobertGlatter @Medscape on boarding and pearls of throughput.

I’m honored to work at their ED, one that is a top-20-highest-volume ED in the US, and a COUNTY one no less, that miraculously dropped LWBS from as high as 20% to now as low as 0% — all under their collaborative leadership and a focus on always doing the right thing for patients.

Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast!

Focus on your team & patient centered care…the rest will take care of itself! @JPS_Health we dropped our LWBS below the national benchmark (at times O%) while seeing ⬆️volumes & ⬆️patient experience. Pts are seen timely & are happy!
