2019 November Excellence Exchange
Welcome to the November edition of the Excellence Exchange. We were excited to see so many of our colleagues at the Magnet Conference
® this year. Once again, we heard how overwhelmingly important shared governance/professional governance best practices are to many of you. We also heard that many organizations are either implementing or rebooting their councils, so we wanted to provide a few helpful resources in this newsletter. In addition to our upcoming shared governance workshop in Estero, Florida, our website has archived newsletters with articles on shared governance, as well as archived webinars which are free to anyone who registers.

Which Journey to Take - Pathway to Excellence® or Magnet®?
For some organizations deciding which journey to take is a significant concern. A comparison of the purpose, similarities, differences, and cost can often help gain clarity and lead to the best decision for an organization.

Creative Health Care Management offers numerous workshops like shared governance, journey to excellence, and Magnet® workshops throughout the country. We know that often the timing or location is just not conducive to attending or sending a team to attend. We also understand that sometimes the cost for a single organization to bear the expense to bring a consultant onsite can be a barrier. For this reason, we have alternative options for organizations to consider.

WEBINAR: Crafting Your Employee Survey Communication Plan

Come learn about the elements of a strong communication plan that includes actionable items for the pre-survey, the survey itself, and the post-survey phases. Particular attention will be spent on the post-survey results dissemination and action plan accountabilities.

Q:
We have had unit-based councils in our organization for a few years. In some councils the managers come to the meetings, in others they do not attend the meetings. What is considered the best practice for managers attending unit council meetings?
A:
To attend or not attend council meetings is a common question, and it really depends on the manager. In some instances, the formal unit leader can attend the meeting and allow the staff chair to lead the meeting, in other instances it is difficult for the manager to attend and not lead the meeting. In the latter case it may be more beneficial for the leader to attend only the last few minutes as a check in to see if they are needed as a resource, or if resources are needed for a project or initiative. This leader may choose to not attend the meetings at all.
Learn the key to leadership presence at council meetings
