Podcast Episode 67 – The Insidious Problem You’re Not Recognizing in Your Business – Phyllis Quinlan
Episode 67 – My guest on the podcast today is Phyllis Quinlan. Phyllis has been in healthcare for over 40 years in a variety of clinical, education, and administrative roles. She is the author of a book entitled; Bringing Shadow Behavior Into the Light of Day: Understanding & Effectively Managing Bullying & Incivility in Healthcare.
You know, if you don’t know whether your team has these kinds of struggles, it’s likely that they’re happening without you knowing it. It’s critically important as a leader that you work on recognizing and addressing these issues before they become a cancer that metastasizes throughout your entire organization.
That’s why I’m so glad to have Phyllis on the podcast today. She has really got a bead on recognizing, rooting out, and dealing with the types of destructive internal team dynamics that are so prevalent in most companies. It’s an incredibly practical discussion, and we’ll go through some really specific steps you can take to start addressing some of these issues. If you’ve got a cancer in your organization, you need to excise it. In this conversation, you’ll get the tools you need to do that.
Get on the waitlist for Residency-Proof Your Marriage!
I’m excited to tell you about a new online course I’m launching called “Residency-Proof Your Marriage.” I’ve seen way too many couples get divorced or see their relationships go sour during their medical career. Medical training is an inherently divisive time, so you have to work to combat that!
This online video course will coach you through setting expectations, communicating effectively, getting on the same page with finances, and keeping your relationship thriving during a difficult time. Whether you’re in medical school, residency, or out in clinical practice, Residency-Proof Your Marriage is going to help you build a thriving medical marriage.
This is a very inexpensive investment in your marriage. A weekend marriage retreat will cost upwards of $1000 between food, registration, lodging, and vacation time. This course is just a fraction of that cost and you can complete it on your own time!
Registration for the beta course is closed, but get on the waitlist for the course launch this fall!
