Healthcare’s MissingLogic Podcast

Where healthcare leaders see their problems and challenges through a brand-new lens.

#221: Encore Episode: TRU Series Polarity Intelligence™

In this episode, we focus on leveraging Polarity Intelligence™, which is Pillar #2 of our Dynamic Balance EffectTM (DBE) Framework. Polarity Intelligence applies the “missinglogic” to leverage the unavoidable tensions and challenges impacting your daily life. The thing is, most leaders feel these tensions are problems to solve because it’s the only lens they’ve ever known. If you treat them as problems and you don’t realize that you’re experiencing unmanaged polarities, you will realize your greatest fears and end up failing. In this podcast, we talk about the numerous tensions that act on you and how to identify and leverage them to establish a balanced life. We also talk about four crux personal polarities and their early warning signs, and negative outcomes if you over-focus on one over the other.

#220: Encore Episode: Attention Leaders! Busy is a Badge of Burnout

How many times do you say, “I’m fine, I’m just really busy” when people ask you how you are? Being busy becomes a status symbol as a leader. In fact, the more you can do, the more you’re asked to do, and the more you feel you’re bringing value to your team and your organization. In this podcast episode, we talk about why being busy is a badge of burnout, not honor. We also discuss the importance of setting boundaries for leaders and some warning signs of wearing a badge of burnout.

#219: Encore Episode: Calling all Leaders! Work-Life Balance is Possible

You've probably heard that work-life balance doesn't exist. Or maybe you've tried to balance your personal and professional life, especially during these challenging times, but you feel like it's impossible to achieve. As leaders, we're taught to look at challenges and issues as problems to solve and we think that problem-solving is the logic we apply to all challenges we face. Are we right? The thing is, not every problem is solvable, and if you can't recognize that the challenge isn't a problem to solve, then you're going to fail over time. In this episode, we reveal that Work-Life Balance is possible and why you can achieve it as a leader. We also discuss why some problems are not solvable, what a polarity is, how they work, and how you can take a different approach to manage them.

#218: The MissingLogic® Journey Beyond Healthcare

One of the common questions we frequently get asked when speaking to other leaders is whether we will be doing work outside of healthcare. And guess what? We're absolutely thrilled to announce that we’re expanding our reach beyond healthcare leaders. With over 20 years of experience working with healthcare leaders and different organizations, we always knew that what we have been doing was applicable to all leaders. Therefore, we believe it's time to expand our reach and work with all leaders in all industries. In this podcast episode, we share some incredibly exciting changes that are taking place at MissingLogic and some up-leveling to the podcast that you're not going to want to miss! We also talk about why we started our podcast with healthcare leaders and why we are running some stellar encore episodes for the next several weeks on our podcast.

#217: Being in the Flow State as a Leader

Have you ever experienced a moment when you are deeply immersed in whatever you are doing, focused with extreme clarity and creativity, and felt incredible joy and fulfillment? That's being in the flow state, and we're going to explore it today. You may or may not know being in the flow state doesn't occur during our easiest or most relaxed moments, but usually when we are stretched to the limit with a task associated with something we enjoy and are good at. In this podcast episode, we talk about being in the flow, how you can leverage it, and why maximizing your impact as a leader is important. We also talk about the benefits of being in a flow state and some recommendations to create opportunities to be in the flow state as a leader.
