Quality Medicine
Caring matters
It's not either-or... It's both-and...
The decision to continue practicing medicine while consulting is an important aspect of the mission: to provide outstanding medical care and help others do the same. Advising other healthcare providers on a new approach or solution will always align with the delivery of better, personal patient care at the bedside. Share your passion.
Professional Conversation
Shed some light
Starting is sometimes just saying it aloud...
The hope is by conversing, coaching, and coaxing a new opportunity to life we can achieve the creativity we all seek. Many of us in healthcare keep good ideas locked in our own heads for a variety of reasons: time, territory, timidness.... Let the lightbulb shine! Share your idea.

What's Your FOCUS?
Reaching for a new idea...
Find the Opportunity
Discover. Develop. Design.
What's your idea? What's the goal? Is it SMART enough to try? Why would you build it? Where would you begin?
Organize the Team
Meet & Greet.
Who are the decision-makers, the policy-makers, the stakeholders? Who needs to be at your side to nourish your idea?
Clarify the Target
Define. Refine. Draw the Line.
What do you know, exactly? What is missing? Do you have a process improvement methodology? How will you aim your idea on the target state?
Understand the Variation
Compare Today. Expand Tomorrow.
Is the current state accurate? What needs to change? How will other influences change your idea? How will your idea prosper in a changing environment?
Select the Strategy
Unlock the Potential.
How do you define success? What is the magnitude of your idea? Is there an endpoint or a sustainable continuation model for optimizing your idea?
Be SMART With Your Goals!
Success is found first through defining the goal
Specific
Details, details, details...
Write down the goal. Then rewrite it with more detail. Keep reiterating the goal until the aim is a clear, definable, quantitative result you wish to attain.
Measurable
Measure up.
By placing the measuring stick against the goal you can see how far you've come and how far the finish line may still be. Success is not just found at the end of the project, but along the journey of smaller milestones.
Attainable
When climbing a mountain, stay on the trail.
Every goal must be based on truth, understanding, and an ability to be reached. Go ahead, set your sights high, but have a path beneath your feet.
Realistic
Think globally, act locally.
An ability to understand the sphere of your influence and those around you allows a realistic view of the potential in completing your goal. Sometimes one goal needs to break into smaller steps to reach an eventual summit.
Time-bound
Tick tock...
Setting a time limit, a deadline, a last day...this is often the hardest to do. Without a countdown there is no launch.
