8 Essential Skills of a Healthy Team Webinar

Studies show that cultivating and sustaining a high performing and cohesive team begins with a healthy work culture. Especially now. Recent research confirms that burnout and turnover are caused from toxic and negative work cultures.

For over a decade, the Healthy Workforce Institute has been working with healthcare leaders and their teams to create a healthy work culture by first, addressing bullying and incivility. Over time, we’ve noticed patterns of behaviors and skills common in departments that didn’t need our help because they had already built a healthy team. On the contrary, in departments that were struggling, these skills were missing.

The evidence is clear. Leaders need to be as competent in establishing a healthy work culture as they are managing the administrative aspects of their job.

In this interactive virtual retreat with Renee Thompson, leaders learn 8 essential skills required to hardwire so they retain and grow a high-performing and cohesive team. Each essential skill includes practical strategies for the leader to develop (self) and strategies to develop their team.
