Episode Insights and Takeaways

Standards of behavior are essential in healthcare organizations to define and align behavioral expectations with core values.

• Leaders need to take ownership of the standards and keep them alive through various tactics such as communication boards, training events, and department meetings.
• Leadership practices, such as giving and receiving feedback, play a crucial role in elevating behaviors and holding employees accountable.
• Persistent behavior issues should be addressed through one-on-one conversations to ensure accountability and maintain the standards. Leaders have a responsibility to address toxic behavior in the workplace and intervene effectively.
• Behavior standards may need to be updated to align with strategic priorities.
• Onboarding processes should include orientation on behavior standards to set new employees up for success.

Over the duration of the 10-week Capstone Leadership Bundle Academy, participants will be guided through a “learn-do”
experience designed to support the adoption of a consistent cadence of purposeful and impactful
actions anchored in nine core leadership practices that move people higher and progress forward.
