Thanks for sharing @KoliBosco! Excited to get this out. Some of the #healthequity related considerations here were key. Maybe worth exploring…

“Quality” feels subjective, in discussions of ideas. Perhaps nuance is needed.

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

Thought I agreed, but on reflection:

True, charisma or compelling qualities can mask flaws in someone’s logic or reasoning.

But also true, writing ability may be a direct reflection of levels or education or training — more than the quality or worth of someone’s ideas.

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

The best way to gauge the quality of someone’s ideas isn’t to listen to them talking. It’s to read their writing.

Compelling speakers can mask weak logic with strong charisma. Putting key points on a page exposes flawed reasoning.

Compelling writing requires clear thinking.

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

In co-creating w/ ppl experiencing #homelessness or #housinginsecurity, some w/o training aren’t strong writers. But ideas they articulate verbally & ways they engage artfully/analytically in discourse show intelligence & critical thinking that even some strong writers lack.

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

@panagis21 @JohnsHopkins What’s the course? Glad to hear it’s on the docket 🙌 much needed.

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

Very excited for @AcademyHealth's next chapter!

And: as people increasingly reject compromise in relationships (sometimes rightfully citing healthier boundaries, more self-respect, etc.) do we risk shielding ourselves from even healthy exposure to diverse attitudes/approaches, and learning through alignment (if not agreement)?

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

Insights for healthy discourse too: can feature disagreement or perfectly oppositional opinions, if people share values of open-mindedness and commitment to learn from/about others’ perspectives.

How do we protect such dialogue, which confronts assumptions & prompts innovation?

[Adam Grant @AdamMGrant]

Strong relationships don’t need agreement. They need alignment.

Agreement is having identical opinions. Alignment is having shared values.

Agreement is taking the same path. Alignment is heading in the same direction.

Closeness is a matter of commitment, not consensus.

Great point by @LizFowler_ that “reducing unnecessary care can be a way of reducing unnecessary waste” during @AcademyHealth’s #ARM23 plenary on the impacts of #climatechange for #health & #healthcare.

“We need to start challenging the idea the health system is a health sector issue,” and broaden our approach. @feljardali on impacts of #climatechange for #health & #healthcare during closing plenary at @AcademyHealth’s #ARM23.

This quotation! Thanks for sharing, @researchmatters.

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

@aidan__crowley @AcademyHealth @PennLDI @PennCHIBE @PayInsightsTeam So nice meeting you at #ARM23. Good luck in the fall!

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

Indeed! It has been entirely too long @Hassanah2017 & @KoliBosco. Ever grateful for the chance to collab with and learn from you both. Again soon!

[Janice Tufte @Hassanah2017]

First time we have seen each other in person since the @AcademyHealth #ParadigmProject though we did write a paper together 'Culturally responsive health research: A collaborative design model for equitable and sustainable community impact' #ARM23 https://t.co/aZC0ZDxVal

[Catherine Chen @DrChenMD]

Appreciate the insights from @Nancy_Lopez_PhD, one of the “New Perspectives on Health Equity” panelists at @AcademyHealth #ARM23. She asked us to ask ourselves 2 questions: 1) What is your “street race?” and 2) What is your social location within grids of power?

[Rachel Dungan @REDungan]

@subatomicdoc: this is another solution to your question from yesterday re: changing #healthcare to support #patientempowerment.

[Lisa Simpson @DrSimpsonHSR]

"If you do not know the etiology of a patient’s symptoms, have enough humility to admit this, validate their concerns, and refer them to a physician who may be able to help."
