Podcasts about competencies

In this episode, we speak to Dr Diarmuid Quinlan, a GP and MD candidate based at the Department of General Practice at University College Cork.Title of paper: Competencies and clinical guidelines for managing acne with isotretinoin in general practice: a scoping reviewAvailable at: https://doi.org/10.3399/BJGP.2025.0135There is evidence of inequitable access to the most effective treatment for severe acne, isotretinoin. This scoping review identified the clinical competencies to safely manage acne using isotretinoin. No global consensus exists among clinical practice guidelines (CGPs) on whether GPs are appropriate prescribers of isotretinoin. Appropriately resourced and CPG-guided patient access to isotretinoin in primary care may promote safe, timely, and equitable acne management for patients and improve antimicrobial stewardship.Transcript:This transcript was generated using AI and has not been reviewed for accuracy.

And welcome to our autumn edition of the BJGP podcast.We're kicking off with a new set of interviews for the next few months. So thanks again for joining us.Today we're speaking to Dr. Dermod Quinlan, who is a practicing GP in Cork and is also an MD candidate at University College Cork in Ireland.We're here today to discuss his paper, recently published in the BJGP titled Competency and Clinical Guidelines for Managing Acne with Isotretinoin in General Practice. A Scoping Review. So thanks very much, Dermid, for joining me here today to talk about this paper.But yeah, I guess I just wanted to start by saying that this is a really interesting paper and I think it covers a very common condition that we see in general practice and covers treatment, which can be quite difficult as well for acne.But I wonder if you could just start by telling us a little bit about why you wanted to do this research and just a bit about the treatment of it and why you focused down on this topic, really.Speaker B00:01:09.610 - 00:02:59.510So lovely to meet you, Nada. I'm first and foremost a GP and I see patients three days a week, 20 hours a week.And I did a diploma in dermatology over a decade ago and I still do some online tutoring. So I have a long standing interest in dermatology and have an extended role in dermatology.I work in an urban practice with lots of young teenagers and young people in it.Acne is a common chronic disorder and I would see a lot of young people with acne of all grades of severity, mild, moderate and severe, and very severe. And as a clinician, very clearly recognize that behind acne is a patient very commonly suffering profound distress.And we know that the morbidity associated with acne and particularly severe acne, is very extensive.There's the emotional morbidity, there's psychological morbidity, it impacts people's employment opportunities, their education achievements, and then more widely, because treating acne is resource intensive, it has an impact on the healthcare workforce. And then there are concerns about the very prolonged use of antibiotics in acne, raising real antimicrobial stewardship concerns.So I have an interest in this. And then we decided that we would do research into it because we don't know the clinical competencies for safe use of isotretinoin.So I was particularly interested in severe acne and the management of severe acne, and also it didn't clearly...

Welcome to Episode 50 of the HPNA Palliative Perspective podcast—a meaningful milestone, and one that gave us pause to reflect on the incredible leaders who've shaped the hospice and palliative care space. In early conversations about this episode, we considered dedicating it to Betty Ferrell, a visionary in the field and the longtime Editor-in-Chief of JHPN, the Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing.  But, in true Betty fashion, those close to her reminded us she prefers to stay out of the spotlight. So instead, we're honoring her legacy in a way we think she'd appreciate: by celebrating the educators.  In this episode, we're shining a light on the hospice and palliative nurse educators featured in an upcoming issue of JHPN—innovators who are creating new programs and pushing boundaries in their Schools of Nursing to bring both primary and specialty palliative care to the forefront of nursing education. Their work is not only advancing the field but also shaping the future of compassionate care.  Join Andra Davis, PhD, MN, RN, and Megan Lippe, PhD, MSN, RN, ANEF, FPCN®, FAAN—guest editors of the November issue of JHPN—as they share powerful insights on preparing the next generation of nurses in hospice and palliative care. Educating future nurses requires more than just a solid curriculum—it demands mentorship, creativity, and a deep, ongoing commitment. In this episode, we explore why palliative care is no longer a “nice to have,” but a necessity in nursing education. From shifts in accreditation standards to real-world bedside challenges, Drs. Davis and Lippe discuss the essential role faculty and mentors play in helping students navigate the emotional, clinical, and human complexities of whole person care. We also explore how practicing nurses can be part of this movement—supporting learners and strengthening the future of compassionate care.   Podcast Notes/Links  JPHN Article, releasing in Nov— https://journals.lww.com/jhpn/pages/default.aspx   Betty Ferrell, speaking at HPNA Annual Conference, link  Scope, Standards and Competencies for the Hospice & Palliative RN & APRN, link  The Corner https://www.aacnnursing.org/elnec/elnec-faculty-corner      Megan Lippe, PhD, MSN, RN, ANEF, FPCN®, FAAN Dr. Lippe is Associate Professor with tenure at the University of Texas Health San Antonio and a national leader in palliative nursing education.

What's the key to thriving in the workplace? According to The Six Types of Working Genius by Patrick Lencioni, it's more than just doing a good job. Working Genius is a powerful tool for understanding ourselves and how we work with others. It helps us discover the stages of work that bring joy and fulfillment—and the ones that leave us feeling drained or burned out.In today's exchange, Doug Bradle, Nussbaum's Chief Operations Officer and certified Working Genius coach, unpacks the six stages of work:• Wonder – asking the big questions and imagining what could be.• Invention – creating brand-new solutions from scratch.• Discernment – evaluating and improving ideas with insight.• Galvanizing – rallying people and generating momentum.• Enablement – jumping in to help and provide practical support.• Tenacity – grit to push things across the finish line.The Working Genius Assessment identifies two areas of Genius—your natural gifts that bring energy and joy. It also reveals two Competencies—things you're capable of doing and don't mind—and two Frustrations—things you aren't good at and naturally drain you. Using real-world examples, Doug shares how this framework can transform hiring decisions, team culture, and even how we relate to family and community. At its core, Working Genius helps us better understand what we want from our work—and what those around us want, too.Press play to learn more!FROM TODAY'S PODCAST• Guest: Doug Bradle, Chief Operations Officer at Nussbaum • Learn more about The Six Types of Working Genius at workinggenius.com. • Take the AssessmentLET'S CONNECT• Visit us online at terminalexchange.org • Follow The Terminal Exchange on social media! • Facebook• Instagram • XABOUT NUSSBAUM Employee-Owned, Purpose Driven | Nussbaum is an industry-leader in over-the-road freight transportation.

“Are we valuing what we measure or measuring what we value?” It's probably a familiar question to many of you. And this week we're taking a detailed and reflective look at the role of measuring complex competencies in our schools, as this is often a big part of the discussion about what needs to change in formal education.

This week we're particularly pleased to be able bring you this conversation with Michaela Horvathova from Beyond Education.

Philippe Johnson is a retired United States Air Force officer and advocate for principled and ethical leadership in public service. What are the essential character traits and competencies all leaders need to exhibit to most effectively do their jobs? Using the core traits you have identified for what makes a competent and principled leader, how does former President Trump serve as a case study of poor leadership, and what have been the material outcomes of his failings? There are so many critics out there who decry Trump's personal character and leadership style, but very few actually posit specific criteria for why he is such an aberration, other than pointing to the more sensational aspects of his court cases and social media rants. Can you clearly outline his shortcomings from a practical, on-the-job perspective? The Trump administration seemed to place a premium on loyalty. Your book talks about the difference between “principled” and “unprincipled” loyalty. Which term best applies to those within Trump's inner circle and why? Please define “courageously selfless leadership,” and why is that such an integral part of governing an organization or company?

This realization helps demystify culture and make it actionable.Small organizations can see cultural shifts in 3-6 months, while larger organizations may need more time and multi-level buy-in.Feedback is simply data that helps inform whether behaviors need to shift, removing the negative connotation.Quality trumps quantity when it comes to manager-employee check-ins; even 15 minutes can be effective with established trust.Cultural competencies can be developed using simple tools like AI prompts to generate starting points.The minimum cadence for one-on-one meetings should be every other week, with weekly being ideal.Highlights:00:00 Welcome and Intro 02:47 Understanding Work Culture 05:49 Defining Organizational Culture 08:17 Embedding Culture into Strategy 11:21 Performance Clarity and Competencies 12:44 Cultural Accountability and Leadership 14:29 Organizational Culture and Change Management 18:00 Feedback Mechanisms in Communication 21:03 Utilizing AI for Leadership Competencies 24:01 Translating Strategy into Operations 26:42 Building Trust in Remote Work Environments 29:38 Transitioning from Corporate to Entrepreneurship 30:10 Transition to Entrepreneurship 32:58 Entrepreneurship and Client Profiles 35:31 Improving Work Culture in Alternative Markets 38:12 Website Promotion and Cultural Improvement 39:19 Podcast episode ended Resources:FAST goal-setting framework: Frequently discussed, Ambitious, Specific, TransparentSMART goal-setting framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Time-boundAI tools like ChatGPT/Perplexity for generating competency frameworksSample culture statements and competency frameworks onlineCarol Shen, founder of Start Culture Shift, helps leaders build people-centered, high-performing cultures.

Josh and Amelie discuss the second chapter of the Financial Counseling textbook by Durband, Law, and Mazzolini. Top takeaways: Financial knowledge is very baseline (what is a savings account). Financial literacy is the understanding of how to apply the knowledge. Financial literacy only really works when you're teaching people about things that are directly relevant to their lives at that point in time. Financial capability is the ability to actually implement the knowledge. Financial ratios are great, but many guidelines are situation-specific. It's important to be aware of potential scams to help your clients protect themselves. Be aware of the topics (taxes, insurance, investing, estate planning, etc.) that bring higher liability and may be legally regulated as far as what you are and are not allowed to discuss. Make sure you do some kind of continuing ed to stay on top of research, methods, scams, etc. Want help building or growing a successful financial coaching business?

The FNP program includes a series of clinical courses: Primary Care I, II, and III, with Primary Care III occurring the semester of graduation. Dr. Elizabeth Phenneger and other FNP faculty incorporated a self-evaluation for students taking Primary Care III at the end of the semester and identified gaps in students' competencies. Faculty created an improvement plan tailored to address these deficits that included : (1) a 7-hour in-person clinical skills intensive day incorporating multiple case-based learning activities, standardized patient case simulations, clinical skills practice on task trainers, and unfolding case studies, and (2) a series of physiology cascade assignments threaded throughout the course. Surveys and faculty assessment revealed significant improvement in students' competencies.

In Part One we looked at two broad categories of leadership competences around being Self-Aware and having Accountability.  In this next tranche, we will look at being Others-Focused and at being Strategic.  Others-Focused has many sub-points, but today we will investigate five key aspects Inspiring Through role modelling and communication skills, leaders can and should inspire followers.  The olde days of the boss having to know more than everyone else has gone.  The focus has shifted to developing followers, through personal interest and example.  Are you consciously, systematically doing this? Develops Others Once upon a time, certainly when I first started work,  there was no particular concept that it was the leader's role to develop others.  Individuals had to step up and do it by themselves. This is fundamentally what all leaders had done in the past.  Today however, business is more complex and fast moving, so everyone needs help.  One of the issues is the struggle between selfishly focusing on your own glorious career and the role of others in boosting that cause and your own efforts to selflessly boost the careers of your direct reports.   Companies need leader producing machines. The talented rise faster and higher by demonstrating they are that very elevating machine. Those who can demonstrate they can produce leaders are given a bigger remit to do that at scale.  Can you do it and are you doing it? Positively Influences Others Rabid rivalry and internecine warfare between competing thrusters amongst the leadership team permeate the wrong messages to those below.  Disciples pin their hopes to the banner of the thruster they think will go higher and take them with them. Everyone is grasping the greasy pole, trying to climb over each other to the top.  Politicians and sycophants abound inside companies and are a vicious form of poison, because they are playing all ends against the middle to feather their own nest.  The leader sets the tone.  Not whining about others in the company, not playing petty internal power games and keeping firmly focused on beating the external rivals is the correct path.  Are you and all of your colleagues on it? Effectively Communicates Personal capabilities and mastery of one's designated tasks are the usual path to promotion.  Being 100% responsible for oneself is different to being responsible for a team.  This is where leadership communication skills are soon shown to be frayed and tatty.  Speaking the lingua franca is frankly so what? Communicating key messages and inspiring and persuading others to your path are the required skills.  Few leaders do a great job because many are locked into the belief that all this communication stuff is fluff and hard skills are the only currency.  They are doomed to be low altitude flight path denizens, because companies are looking for people who can move the masses forward.  Is what you are doing every day moving them forward? Providing Direction This sounds so simple.  I mean how hard can this be?  What if it is the wrong direction though? What if we are all being urged to sprint faster off the cliff?  This is the VUCA world of Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity and Ambiguity. Setting the correct direction isn't the easiest thing for leaders these days.  We can't know if the direction is correct until we start down the path.  The clue is to adjust when confronted by unpleasant hints about the actual truth. We need to keep adjusting to the market realities and not become too convinced of our own genius and superiority.  Has your leader ego convinced you that you are always correct? Being strategic is one of those tropes of leadership, but what does it actually involve?  Let's look at couple of issues. Innovative This competency sounds obvious and easy except that very few companies, let alone people, are actually innovative.  Think of all the companies you have worked for and nominate how many came up with any significant innovations?  We are better off developing the innovation muscle of the entire team, than relying on our own scampy offerings. If you are substantially personally gifted in the innovation department then hats off to you.  How many people like you then have you ever worked with?  The answer is clear.  The collective team, if harnessed properly to the task of coming up with innovative ideas, can do it together.  The sticking point is, do you know how to marshal your team to do that? Solves Problems The is another obvious competency, except that are you the one running yourself ragged solving everything? Have you delegated tasks sufficiently so that others can share the burden?  Leaders should be involved with big strategic issues, not with every small fry decision.  If you are in the problem weeds and getting down and dirty with minor issues, it is time to rethink how you have positioned yourself as a leader.  Uses Authority Appropriately Does every decision have to run by you?  Are you in too many meetings?  Are you hooked on your own authority and feel the need to be on top of everything?  Developing staff means letting go and giving them some things to try and possibly fail with.  “There are no mistakes, only learning opportunities” is a good mental intervention, for when your staff screw things up.  Delegating your own power is a tough one for driven leaders.  However, if you want to rise, you have to breed successors like rabbits, so that there are plenty of people to take over so that you can rise up the ranks.  

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, John McMahon, John Kaplan and Sunil Dhaliwal, founder and general partner at Amplify Partners, explore the board's perspective on sales leadership. Sunil shares critical insights on selling in the early stages of a startup, knowing when to walk away from a deal, and the importance of transparency in sales forecasting. The conversation dives into the competencies that separate exceptional sales leaders from the rest—honesty, market assessment, and adaptability. If you're leading sales at a high-growth company or thinking about joining a startup, this episode is packed with must-know strategies.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:47] The Pressure of Startup Sales – Why every deal feels like life or death[00:01:27] The "Man on an Island" Feeling – The loneliness of sales leadership in startups[00:02:29] The Risk of Overpromising – How inaccurate forecasts hurt the whole company[00:03:16] The Cost of Poor Sales Leadership – When inaccurate reporting sets a company back quarters[00:04:09] The Most Critical Competency – Why great sales leaders must accurately assess the battlefield[00:05:38] Market Awareness & Adaptability – Understanding product fit vs. chasing deals[00:06:02] The Power of Asking the Right Questions – Why startups need more than just "closing" skills[00:08:00] Honest Forecasting – How sales leaders should communicate realistic expectationsQUOTES[00:00:47] "A lot of people have a hard time backing away from a deal, but sometimes the right move is to walk away."[00:01:27] "Good sales leaders in startups embrace that lonely moment and are honest about what's going on."[00:03:16] "The worst thing you can do is overpromise.

Leading is super easy.  You are given the title, the authority, the budget, the power and then you just tell people what they need to do.  How hard can that be?  As we know, leading is a snap, but getting others to follow you is the tricky bit. Our awesome power will certainly bludgeon compliance. Sadly, the troops turn off their commitment and engagement switch whenever they come into contact with kryptonite bosses.  We get promoted because we personally did a rather good job on our individual tasks.  That is a false flag though when it comes to being able to communicate, coach, set the direction and inspire others.  Few great athletes become great coaches. It is a totally different skill set.  There are four broad areas we will focus on to help us become successful leaders: Being Self-Aware, Accountable, Others-Focused and Strategic.  The possibilities are endless, but these four areas will serve us well to elevate our thinking about what is required to be a great leader. Under the umbrella of Self-Awareness we have four focus areas. Self-Directed There is a mental and physical requirement for leadership, driven by a strong desire to be successful. We explore inside ourselves to understand what we need to do and why we need to do it.  Someone who can only function on the basis of the advice of others is a follower not a leader.  Of course, taking advice is good, but leaders have their own sense of True North and keep moving forward, charting their own course Self-Regulated Being a self-regulator requires supreme discipline.  Knowing what not to do is as important as making action step choices.  Shiny objects abound, multiplying like amoeba, but time, money and resources are limited.  Be it business focus or our temper, we need to rein them both in and assert control. Develops Self Constant application of self-improvement sounds obvious, but many leaders are cruising.  The more diligent may be doing a good job working in the business, but they are too busy to be working on the business. Is that you? Technology, society, company culture and organisational development overtake some leaders and ultimately they are ejected from the firm.  Where is the locus of self-development to be found?  Good question and there are multiple options. Good choices will have a lasting impact on our longevity as leaders. Confident “We don't know what we don't know” is a big problem.  Before you become a leader there is that misplaced confidence that you know what to do in the role. As you rise through the ranks, you keep making new discoveries.  The more you learn, the less you find you really know.  Imposter syndrome is a big factor here after we step up into new responsibilities.  Constant self-development is the cure for this, as we grow into the job. Accountability covers four sub-topics. Competent This is often mistaken for technical knowledge or business content cover.  That capability within your old job is what thrust you into a leadership role.   What about your competency as the leader?  What do you really know about leading?  How persuasive are you?  How well do you understand the aspirations of the team?  Can you coach others who are just not like you?   Can you set the correct course in a raging sea? This requires study and doesn't happen by osmosis. Honest and Having Integrity Are you honest?  Would your people agree?  Seeing people as cogs in the machine elevating your brilliant career, jousting with rivals for the next job using the team resources for that purpose and being all about me, me, me is often the leader reality.  Think about some of your bosses up to this point. The crust on top of this reality is a false veneer disguising what is really going on.  Subterranean self-interest is often voiced over with pious pronouncements.  Being honest is about sincerely wanting to develop the team members and integrity is what you do or think when no one is observing you.  Manages Progress Towards Goals Obvious.  Yet are the goals clear to your team? Is there an intelligent plan? Are people engaged and bought in? Are you the pirate captain simply bellowing out orders and threatening the crew with the plank? Makes Effective Decisions When do you know a decision was effective?  Certainly never at the time of making it.  In that moment, we are working on hope rather than certainty.  Are the team convinced of the wisdom of the decision?  Was there any input opportunity for them?  Does our power of personality or position power just crush access to the diversity of opinions available?  When it isn't working, are we trapped by pride, ego and arrogance to keep running faster off the cliff?   In Part Two, we will investigate being Others Focused and Strategy for Leaders.

Desires dictate Priorities. Priorities structure our Choices. Choices determine the course of our lives. "The key is not to prioritize what's on your schedule but to schedule your priorities." – Stephen R. Covey Step 1: Review your list of desires. Step 2: Choose ONE thing from each of these four quadrants. Select the one thing that, when accomplished, will have the greatest effect on your other listed desires: - Core (Faith, Family, Health, Well-being) – If prioritized, what one desire would strengthen everything else in this area? - Experience (Learning, Competencies, Alliances) – What experience, learning, or association will create the most significant long-term impact? - Contribution (Arrows Out, Compassion, Impact on Others) – What act of service or generosity will amplify your influence? - Financial (Dynamic Value, Nurturing Connections) – What financial priority, when accomplished, will support everything else? Step 3: Reflect on these four priorities. When you achieve your top 4 priorities, what is the likelihood that almost everything on your list will also be achieved?

Drs. Jorge Burmicky and Kevin McClure discuss their research on effective leadership in higher education. They bring quantitative and qualitative data to help us understand the challenges and competencies of successful college presidents. They discuss the seven interconnected competencies and ways to develop them for more effective executive leadership in higher education and beyond.

In December 2024, the three organizations that oversee medical school (MD and DO) and residency education released a set of “Foundational Competencies for Undergraduate Medical Education,” that represent a consensus on the observable abilities medical students should exhibit as they begin practicing medicine under supervision. Not surprisingly they include taking a relevant patient history, performing a relevant physical exam, and creating and prioritizing a differential diagnosis.  But a new one – and it's the first one under Patient Care -- entails integrating patient context and preferences into patient care. Stefan interviews co-host Saul Weiner who has documented a strong correlation between contextualizing care and patient health care outcomes in thousands of encounters. Saul reflects on how contextualizing care is a deeply human but teachable process that AI can't replicate and that makes care measurably more effective for patients, and more meaningful for doctors. The Institute for Health Care Improvement's new online course on contextualizing care is accessed at Contextualizing Care 101. For bulk orders email OpenSchoolSubsribers@ihi.org
