Episode 223: Encore Episode: Is Problem Solving the Most Valuable Skill a Leader Can Have?

One of the core characteristics of a strong leader is they are an excellent problem solver. As clinicians, you are also trained to solve problems for the patients/clients you serve.

But what we’ve come to learn is not all problems are solvable, and problem-solving skills don’t work on all the challenges that leaders face.

So, then what do you do? Today, we are going to tell you what you do. We are going to talk about an essential competency every leader must have to overcome unsolvable problems and achieve sustainable outcomes.

In this episode you’ll hear:

04:27 - Why not all problems can be solved

06:11 - About the missing logic and competency in healthcare

07:20 - How preferences influence what we hear

08:28 - About false choices

09:22 - Why vicious cycles happen

09:51 - How we define Polarity Intelligence™

12:53 - What combination of skills lead to Polarity Intelligence™

14:48 - Why Polarity Intelligence™ is an essential competency for healthcare leaders

20:27 - About serious consequences of not hearing differing perspectives

We could tell you this episode will give you a new perspective on the essential competencies for healthcare leaders, but we won’t, we’ll let you discover that for yourself.
