#EmotionalVocabulary #MentalHealthAwareness #EmotionalIntelligence This week we are covering Mental Health, and discussing the interconnectedness of Mental Health and language. In this video, we are going to talk about the power of language, and how language is a tool, too often overlooked, that can really boost our mental health. Join in as we talk about how to leverage language (or languages), to level up the way you think about and talk about your mental health to others. As you build a clear frame of your mental and emotional footprint, it's a great opportunity to add to your emotional vocabulary to make sure you capture your experiences with the best fit of words available in our lexicon (inventory of words within a language, or across languages).

Our guest today, Jennifer Zelmer, is the newly appointed CEO of the organization formed through the amalgamation of the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement and the Canadian Patient Safety Institute. It’s called Healthcare Excellence Canada and we were fortunate to speak with Jennifer on the exact day the organization officially opened its doors, March 3. Jennifer did her undergraduate degree in health information science at the University of Victoria and did several work terms in India, Australia, Denmark, and Canada. Those experiences awoke her interest her healthcare transformation – and since then she’s been dedicated to finding ways of making care not just better and safer, but how to scale those improvements so everyone can benefit. Jennifer joined the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement as President and CEO in 2018 and was previously president of the Azimuth Health Group where she was a strategic advisor to leaders who sought to advance health and healthcare at local, national, and international levels. Although they didn’t plan to bring the two organizations together in the midst of a pandemic, Jennifer is excited by the possibilities. “Amalgamation is a process, not a journey,” she says and knows change won’t happen in a day. But she’s dedicated to leading the organization in helping shift the conversation in healthcare in some simple and profound ways. It starts with asking not “what's the matter with you” but “what matters to you”. Quotables “Looking for opportunities for where were some of those levers of change and how could you put them together to make transformation happen.” “We need to learn from some of those preparedness pieces as well as from the response during the pandemic.” “This was an amalgamation that we chose as organizations to embark on, so quite a different context from amalgamations where that choice isn’t yours. Coming together as organizations just made sense.” “It’s not just about individual innovations, but also about building our capacity for fostering excellence in the health system.” “Culture is fundamental to patient safety.” “The need for that connection has never been more clear. There’s absolutely no substitute for just spending that time to be able to connect, even if we’re connecting in different ways.” “There has never been more focus on healthcare than now (in my lifetime at least), so where are those opportunities, to say ok, here now we can move this mountain together. It’s going to take all of us, going to take some heavy lifting, there will some twists and turns in the road we didn’t expect, but we’re committed to getting there together.” Mentioned in this Episode: Healthcare Excellence Canada Myer Horowitz Azimuth Health Group Access More Interviews with Healthcare Leaders at HIROC.com/podcast Follow us on Twitter, and listen on iTunes.

We have a special mini-series we're releasing this week: Engaging in Storytelling: A 3-part collaborative podcast series with SPOR Cast, Matters of Engagement and PEP Talks. We each cover a different angle on patient stories and storytelling – together they provide a rich picture of some of the challenges, concerns, and also opportunities when it comes to engaging in storytelling. We will be sharing all three episodes on our platforms. This is the 2nd of 3, and it's produced by us! Organizations and Patient Stories Our guests are Carol Fancott (Director of Patient Partnerships and Engagement at the newly amalgamated organization that's brought together the Canadian Foundation for Healthcare Improvement and Canadian Patient Safety Institute) and Daniel Z. Buchman (Bioethicist and Independent Scientist at the Center for Addiction and Mental Health, Assistant Professor at the Dalla Lana School of Public Health at the University of Toronto, and member of the University of Toronto Joint Center for Bioethics). Carol shares her thoughts on patient stories and storytelling based on the subject of her PhD, which is: how organizations use patient stories for learning. We talk about ‘spectating', control and power, using dialogue to enhance learning, and how stories are just one input of many when it comes to understanding patient experience. Dan then helps us think through some of the moral and ethical implications about what organizations are asking of patients when it comes to telling their story.

Even the best design teams, methods, architecture and tools are no match for a project beset with political infighting, divided priorities or unfocused goals. To truly make an impact, product teams need to have business buy-in and a shared understanding of the project’s direction. Often, it’s up to designers to smooth the way and facilitate this consensus. By greasing the tracks in the early stages of a project, designers can gain the much-needed support of business stakeholders, avoid wasted effort, increase their influence (within their teams and the company at large), and make a more meaningful difference with their work. The key is to bridge competing viewpoints, develop a common vision and break through project roadblocks. And it all starts with the right combination of tools and techniques. In this session, you will: * Discover how to bridge competing viewpoints, develop a common vision and eliminate roadblocks on your next project. * Explore the ways in which your existing design skill-sets can be expanded to improve communication within your team and throughout you company. * Learn facilitation techniques to help engage business stakeholders and manage the conflicting priorities and lack of direction that so often derail a project.
