Topics:
Early efforts can help you to make the most of your leadership term. If you’ve recently assumed
a new role, the first 31 days can be vital. Topics to be covered during this installment of Grand
Rounds include:
- Which Hospital and Medical Staff policies should you read, front to back, to prepare
- for this role?
- Identifying internal resources that are available to you throughout your leadership term (and understanding when you can – or should – call on them)
- What can you learn from your MSSP?
- Did your leadership positions come with a “welcome letter”? Learn what should be included in such a letter – and why tenured leaders tell us they like them so much
- How to set and stick to an agenda
- Running a meeting that does not waste people’s time
- Keeping meeting minutes
- Authority and accountability for follow-up between meetings
- Reaching out to your constituents (e.g. keeping key Medical Staff members informed and involved in the leadership’s activities through routine communication)
