In this episode, we will explore reverse mentoring and challenging the status quo in quality improvement with Carl Betts. We will look at Carl’s reflections on mentorship and reverse mentorship of Quality Improvement fellows within an Ambulance service setting. We dig into how Carl leads these QI fellows but also how they lead him in innovation and ideas. The focus of reverse mentoring is to increase the mentee’s inclusion competencies; however, mentors are simultaneously provided with the opportunity to learn from their mentee’s experience, knowledge and skills so it can be considered as a career development opportunity for both parties. Reverse mentoring is an effective way to build genuine awareness of the barriers faced by ethnically diverse employees and different perceptions of leadership from the mentee’s perspective. We also dig into the assessment process for the fellowship and how Carl has flipped this on its head.
Carl Betts is the Quality Improvement lead for the Yorkshire Ambulance Service (YAS) and has been a Paramedic for over 10 years. He currently leads the fellowship program for his service. Please enjoy this wide-ranging conversation with Carl Betts, a regular contributor and guest on the podcast.
