Want to improve your organization? Effective communication, training, campaigning, and meetings can help.

• Great organizations define and implement effective communication strategies.
• Clarity around key terms enhances communication efforts.
• Training is distinct from communication and focuses on skill development.
• Campaigns support ongoing learning and engagement.
• Meetings should prioritize goals and projects over communication.
• Regular communication reduces stress and misinformation.
• Employee-driven teams can enhance communication efforts.

In this episode of Culture Change RX, I discuss the importance of improving communication within healthcare organizations. Key terms such as communication, training, campaigning, and meetings are defined to clarify their distinct purposes and their role in leading change initiatives. The episode concludes with a call to action for leaders to prioritize communication as a crucial element in fostering a positive organizational culture.

Hi! I’m Sue Tetzlaff. I’m a culture and execution strategist for small and rural healthcare organizations - helping them to be the provider and employer-of-choice so they can keep care local and margins strong.

For decades, I’ve worked with healthcare organizations to navigate the people-side of healthcare, the part that can make or break your results. What I’ve learned is this: culture is not a soft thing. It’s the hardest thing, and it determines everything.
