2014 Making Change Happen – From CEOs Who Have Been There

  1. Takeaway #1. Getting away from the regulatory mindset is tough – and needs deliberate action.
  2. Takeaway #2. It is easy in a time of financial pressure to lose the focus on consumers – which is the only focus that is a “true north” for long-term strategy
  3. Takeaway #3. Strategy is as much about deciding what not to do, as deciding what to do
  4. Takeaway #4. The role of the CEO is to make the decisions where there are no obvious answers.

Challenge #1 - how do you sustain the deliberate action when faced with daily pressures from regulators?

Challenge #2 - how do you assure this is the consistent focus - not just the focus when someone is looking or asking?

Challenge #3 - how do you make a decision that might require not doing what you like doing and deciding to do what you do not like to do?

Challenge #4 - how do you survive mistakes?

2015 Why It’s So Hard To Fill Those Executive Positions At Behavioral He...

"There are five factors that make leadership recruitment complex:

  1. Hiring for mission
  2. Compensation inequities
  3. Lack of experience with finance
  4. Cultural dissonance
  5. Role of the board"

Our responsibility is to deal with these five factors and to prepare the leaders of our company to also deal with them. How do we deal with the following challenges?

1. Communicating and understanding our mission so that we can assure that the leader is the right fit?

2. Asking our leaders to influence and lead those whose compensation (and perceived value of time) may differ from ours?

3. Being functionally sound and yet not having the financial intuitiveness or discipline to manage complexity?

4. Managing across generations, internal sub-cultures, external cultures and existing perceptions?

5. Building an internal set of advisors (especially for a new-hire in a leadership role?)

2017 Why Schizophrenia Remains ‘Top Of Mind’ At Health Plans

How can we structure work and management of work to be more than - "work as hard as possible today then - go home exhausted - but don't kick the dog and then return tomorrow for more of the same and realize how well off you are because it is better than working for a company about to go bankrupt." I did not make up this quote - I heard it first hand from an executive who I believe was trying to motivate his employees.

Is this uncommon?

What is our role in preventing it from being the words we live (even if we do not speak them) and how can we help our companies operate differently?

2018 California To Launch Self-Determination Program For Individuals Wit...

Here is a definition of "Self-Determination" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-determination_theory

It is perhaps quite contradictory to a 20th century industrial era assembly line leadership style. It may also be contradictory in a highly regulated-security conscious high risk arena - such as health, finance or transportation - what about education or learning or leadership?

And what about education, learning and leadership in highly regulated arenas?

What are the long term (or perhaps short term) consequences of forcing humans to abandon self-determination between the hours of 9 to 5 (or longer depending on the color of their collar?)
