Identifying workplace health and well-being is critical for us as future healthcare leaders. My present workplace received an overall score of 82 on the Clark Healthy Workplace Inventory (2014), which is considered moderately healthy. We are a state-funded institution, therefore my lower scores were due to the lack of varied concepts and compensations. The quantity of training, collaboration, and career growth chances accessible to staff were areas where I gave the company better marks.
My workplace, in my perspective, has a high degree of politeness. To my knowledge, I've never had an argument or dispute with a coworker, and no other issues have come to my attention within the company. As a result, I feel respected in the workplace and treat others with the same respect. Everyone seemed to enjoy working with one another, which contributes to the positive atmosphere. The unique capabilities that healthcare personnel from all disciplines bring to the workplace may be synthesized when we foster a culture of collaboration (Clark, 2015).
"Self-knowledge and sensitivity to what other people want and need to know are keys to good communication" (Marshall, 2017). Knowing one's skills and shortcomings as a leader might help or impede one's ability to communicate effectively. A high-stress atmosphere that pushes everyone to their limits is the Emergency Department, where I saw this firsthand. On one occasion, I overheard one of the nurse managers in the ED shouting at a different nurse to "get off their lazy (bottom) and help out," but the manager did not understand they were both inputting orders for a doctor in another emergency case at the same time. The Nurse Manager was demoted as a result of this occurrence, which was brought on by stress and a failure to communicate effectively with her team. "Successful communication involves active listening," as stated by Marshall and Broome, and this would have been useful in the aforementioned scenario (2017).
