Networking can, and often does, lead to some amazing things. Dr. Jeff Cohn is back to share how an unlikely relationship has blossomed into an amazing movement. Listen in to hear how he's making waves with a new app designed to help you lean into gratitude while monitoring your vulnerability, and how this practice impacts your mental health.  Dr. Jeff met his business partner, professor Jeff, when they both attended an academic conference. They had some amazing conversations then and though a natural working partnership didn't reveal itself then, they both agreed to stay in touch, just in case.  Then Covid happened and physician mental health became a pressing topic. Dr. Jeff and Professor Jeff came back together to create an app specifically designed to help health care professionals acknowledge their feelings, prevent burnout, and create a more humane workplace environment. I've been using it for a while now and I have to say, I'm loving it. It really does help you tap into what you're feeling, where it's coming from, and how your feelings are impacting your environment. Listen in to hear all about the app, how it was developed, why they've developed it, and what they hope to accomplish in the coming months and years. You can find the app for both Apple and Android, just check your app store! “We developed a way of displaying how people are feeling with a color format.” Dr. Jeff Cohn   In this episode: [01:40] Welcome back to the show, Dr. Jeff Cohn!

Sometimes when you're the one with boots on the ground, seeing the devastation wrought by a pathogen, you become the person who needs to find a new path. Dr. Jeff Cohen found himself facing a spate of MRSA cases while he was still working in clinical medicine, and rather than continuing to follow outdated CDC guidelines, he used positive deviance to discover inside experts.    What does this mean?    The experts at the CDC weren't seeing the same data or results that Jeff and his team were. So he began to sort through what each team member and group knew to come up with better solutions for reducing MRSA transmission.   They put together a series of questions to determine which underlying practices each team member was using to keep from transmitting MRSA. In fact, they surveyed the specific people who were most likely to transmit the disease, but who hadn't.    It was using this method that they developed entirely new protocols regarding MRSA and other highly transmissible hospital pathogens.    Listen as Jeff shares more about this practice and his story. Do you think using positive deviance could help your practice address their internal processes?     “I could give up the responsibility of having the answer, I could approach this purely through a toddlers eyes and really be curious.”  Dr. Jeff Cohen In this episode: [01:20] Welcome to the show, Dr. Jeff Cohen! [01:32] He shares his background and what he's doing now. [02:41] Listen as Dr. Cohen discusses the transformative approach of Positive Deviance. [06:40] Learn about the timeline involved with starting the conversation with PD. [15:17] After implementing some of the ideas to stop the MRSA infections they then went around to see what was helping and what wasn't. [18:35] Some examples of where changes were made. [24:10] Dr. Cohen talks about the outcome of this PD project. [28:05] He discusses some other projects he's done using the Positive Deviance approach. [31:25] Connect with Dr. Cohen.

Dr. Arvind Singhal, expert in Positive Deviance and professor at the University of Texas where he teaches the subject, says context, communication, and micro behaviors are the keys to identifying and understanding positive outliers.  Through positive deviance, people are able to solve problems or have better success without extra resources, and often against great odds.  Yet, somehow they persevere.  Arvind shares compelling examples of this - most notably the stories of two Indian villages that are tremendously successful at controlling the covid-19 pandemic.  Check out this interview to hear from Arvind about by analyzing the data around these positive deviants, we can have success with problems.  Because human behavior is the variant, we must analyze their micro-behaviors and understand the context.  Be sure to check out Arvind's newest book, The Art of Positive Deviance, a Radically Different Way of Solving the World's Toughest Problems, which launches on June 11th.  Connect with Dr. Arvind Singhal: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arvind-singhal-0a00b32/ Topical time codes: 00:44 - Positive deviance 2:33 - Examples of positive deviance in 2 Indian villages battling covid19 6:59 - Micro-behaviors, pay attention to positive variations 11:55 - Recognizing deviants 16:26 - The role of data & analyzing micro-behaviors 20:51 - Role of context, relationship, communication  23:48 - Takeaway message: be humble _________________________________ AiRCare Health is a supporter of the Speaking Of, Making Healthcare Work show.  About AiRCare Health: https://aircarehealth.com We envision a world where the emotional and mental wellbeing of individuals is seen as the most important component of overall health.

During our discussion group exploring TVOL's Third Way Series, What is Positive Deviance? There's a small chance that you know all about it and a larger chance that you've never heard of it at all. That's because successful cultural change methods have a way of emerging at a particular time and place, spreading to a degree on the basis of their success, but then coming up against boundaries, beyond which they remain unknown. So it is with Positive Deviance, which has been used to prevent child malnourishment in Vietnam, female circumcision in Egypt, and even improve an American pharmaceutical company's outreach to doctors. Our guide to this effective change method is David K. Hurst, a Management educator and author of The New Ecology of Leadership: Business Mastery in a Chaotic World among other books.  Sage Gibbons, budding evolutionist and TVOL's Marketing and Development Strategist, joins me as guest host as we explore what Positive Deviance teaches us about the Third Way and how a formal articulation of the Third Way can add value to Positive Deviance.  Referenced Materials: "Of Boxes, Bubbles, and Effective Management", David K.

Clinical managing editor Karen Roush speaks with Dr. Jodie Gary, assistant professor at Texas ANM Health Science Center College, and author of the article “Exploring the Concept and Use of Positive Deviance in Nursing.” She describes the difficulty nurses encounter providing patient-centered care while remaining within strict policies in a complex environment. Nurses who extend care beyond these policies know that they’re deviating, but are doing so in a responsible way with honorable intentions that benefit the patient. She suggests increased flexibility through guidelines rather than rules under circumstances that require the adaptation of care to suit the patient and their immediate needs.

In the course of the series, we will explore many different definitions, views and angles on positive deviancy, whan makes deviants and how to recognize them, what it takes to be a deviant, the effects of deviants on others, how deviants come about, and how and what we can learn from them.

Jerry Sternin argued that traditional expert-driven models for individual, social and organisational change often don’t work. The Positive Deviance approach builds on successful but ‘deviant’ (different) practices and strategies that are identified from within the community or institution. Positive Deviance is based on the belief that in every community, organisation, business or group, there are individuals or entities whose uncommon, but demonstrably successful behaviours or strategies enable them to find better solutions to problems than their neighbours or colleagues who have access to exactly the same resources. How does this happen? What can we learn from it? Could it work in Glasgow?
