An Entrepreneur (ESTP) is someone with the extraverted, observant, thinking, and prospecting personality traits. They tend to be energetic and action-oriented, deftly navigating whatever is in front of them. They love uncovering life's opportunities, whether socializing with others or in more personal pursuits.

Entrepreneurs leap before they look, fixing their mistakes as they go, rather than sitting idle, preparing contingencies and escape clauses. They have a unique skill in noticing small changes.

Entrepreneurs use these observations immediately, calling out the change and asking questions, often with little regard for sensitivity.
They should remember that not everyone wants their secrets and decisions broadcast.

Strengths

ESTPs are loved by almost everyone they meet. They have their own brand of humor, and others are drawn to their charisma. They love to be the center of attention. They always try to be straight-forward with others — a trait that others often appreciate — and rarely sugar-coat things.

ESTPs are great problem-solvers. They are very resourceful and are able to adapt easily when necessary. They are able to think critically and logically when making decisions, rarely letting their emotions cloud their judgment. When confronted with a problem, ESTPs try to use the information available to make the best decision, hoping for the best. They place a great deal of trust their own judgement, which is based solely off of unbiased logic and reasoning. They have little tolerance for intuitive judgments. Rather, they prefer to evaluate the information available to them and make a decision quickly.

ESTPs have initiative, and others often describe them as “doers”. They are very competitive, and are always pushing themselves to be the best. This helps them become very successful in life, particularly in their careers.

Weaknesses

Because ESTPs are very detail-oriented, and may have a difficult time thinking about big concepts or theories. They would much rather focus on realistic possibilities that are practical, rather than big ideas with limited practical importance. At times, it may be hard for ESTPs to see the “big picture”, or see too far into the future, and they may get caught up in details of the present moment instead.

ESTPs are not afraid to take risks. In some cases, this can be a positive trait. However, these risk-taking tendencies often make ESTPs prone to making poorly thought-out decisions. They may make irresponsible financial choices—gambling or making impulsive purchases. At times like these, ESTPs often forget about their responsibilities and how their actions may affect others. Aside from this, ESTPs’ impulsiveness may make them prone to difficulties in other areas of their lives. They are constantly seeking new and exciting things, making it hard for an ESTP to focus in school. It is critical that ESTPs continually practice keeping their impulses in check. If ESTPs are able to keep their impulsiveness in check, however, their enthusiasm and charisma will help them become very successful in life.

Before the meeting today, I have prioritised the workload and prepared my perspectives. I was also trying to lead the session to discuss and decide what resources to create.
In the meeting, we managed to:
- Discuss about the survey results
- Decide what resource we will create
- Gave educators a conclusion of the project plan
- Summarised the survey results into a ppt to present tomorrow

Everyone were engaging and trying to make a agreement. And they are happy with my ideas of the project.
The only thing we could improve is, while we start making the ppt, we were working individually and a bit lack of communication at first. Efficiency can be improved if we assigned tasks to everyone. And we was working more effectively as we are started a meeting and communicate more again.

Well done everyone, it was a long day!

As we approach two years since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, it's safe to say that the digitization of the healthcare industry is accelerating at a never-before-seen pace. While this tech transformation was bound to happen, the pandemic kicked it into overdrive, forcing healthcare organizations to adapt quickly or be left behind.

‍

Digital transformation has gained momentum in the healthcare industry and it looks like it won't be stopping anytime soon. According to the HIMSS Future of Healthcare Report, 80% of healthcare providers plan to increase investment in technology and digital solutions over the next five years. In addition, 47% cited digital as a top organizational priority and 58% plan to invest $10M+ in digital health programs by 2026.

‍

Emerging healthcare technology trends play an especially critical role in alleviating a particularly pressing problem in the industry: labor shortages.

‍

An analysis of the US healthcare labor market by management consulting firm Mercer reveals that demand for healthcare workers will outpace supply by 2025. There are a variety of reasons for this impending shortage, including an aging population demanding more medical care, coupled with advancements in medicine that are causing people to live longer, often with more chronic conditions as they age.

‍

Of course, we would be remiss if we didn't mention COVID-19 as a factor that has further compounded the issue, as a nationwide labor shortage has hit the pandemic-strained healthcare industry especially hard, with burnout causing a significant number of healthcare workers to quit while those who contract the virus themselves are forced to stay at home. In fact, according to Bloomberg, hospitals and health agencies are facing the worst staffing shortage in as much as four decades, leaving the industry hungry for viable solutions to help solve this issue.

‍

The US healthcare market is growing at a rapid pace, with the value of the national healthcare product expected to rise as high as 6 trillion USD by 2026. With the industry rapidly changing, there are tons of opportunities for healthcare organizations to evolve. But to do so and keep pace with where the industry is headed, it's necessary for healthcare leaders to embrace emerging healthcare technology trends to transform their organizations with more efficient operations and higher quality, more accessible care while mitigating an impending labor shortage. Let's look at the top 10 trends healthcare CIOs should keep an eye on in 2022.

‍

Trend #1: Artificial Intelligence in Healthcare

AI technology is revolutionizing almost every industry, and healthcare is certainly no exception. In 2022, its impact is expected to continue to grow, as more organizations and clinicians adopt advanced AI technology in a variety of domains to optimize the patient journey and achieve better health outcomes.

‍

In 2021, the global artificial intelligence in healthcare market size was valued at a whopping $10.4 billion, a figure that is expected to expand at a compound annual growth rate of 38.4% from 2022 to 2030. However, in spite of its astronomical value, there is still room to grow when it comes to adoption.

‍

According to the HIMSS 2021 Future of Healthcare Report, 62% of clinicians have yet to begin working with AI tools but are interested in doing so for a wide variety of applications, with 80% reporting that they expect to use AI in clinical settings for detection of diseases, and 73% expecting AI to deliver administrative benefits on the patient management side.

‍

With stress and burnout being rampant in healthcare, professionals expending undue time and energy on routine tasks is only compounding the issue. AI technology in healthcare can help alleviate these burdens by automating such tasks, freeing up professionals to focus on delivering outstanding care and services.

The Role of AI in Combatting COVID-19

There's no denying that the pandemic has had a massive impact on our everyday lives. But, without AI technology playing a crucial role in virus detection, prevention, and vaccine development, things could have been far worse.

‍

For example, AI technology has been helpful in analyzing crowd temperature data to identify potentially symptomatic individuals. Advances in AI-powered facial recognition are capable of identifying individuals even if they are wearing a face mask and can also detect if the user is wearing a mask in areas where it is mandatory.

‍

The COVID-19 vaccines were developed in record time and much of that unprecedented speed is owed to advanced AI technology. Researchers used machine learning to help identify protein fragments and produce viable vaccines in a much shorter period of time than ever before. AI is also being applied to analyze lung scans of patients who have contracted COVID-19, to better help medical professionals understand the effects of contracting the virus and provide effective treatments.

Improving Mental Health with AI

Beyond physical health, AI technology is also making its mark in the realm of mental health, particularly in the context of the pandemic that has wreaked havoc on individuals' psychological well-being. According to data from the Kaiser Family Foundation, over 30% of American adults have reported symptoms of anxiety or depressive disorder, compared to less than 10% in 2019.

Researchers at MIT and Harvard University have been utilizing machine learning to track trends in mental health as it relates to COVID-19. They applied an AI model to analyze the text of 800,000 Reddit posts, identifying changes in the tone and content of language that people used as the first wave of the pandemic progressed, from January to April of 2020. This analysis revealed changes in conversations about mental health, including an overall increase in discussion about anxiety and suicide.

‍

Outside of helping researchers better understand the profound psychological effects of the pandemic, AI technology is also helping physicians identify mental illness earlier and put together more targeted treatment plans, by categorizing patient diagnoses into different condition subgroups to help mental health professionals personalize the care they provide. With AI technology, therapists can sift through large amounts of data to identify family histories and responses to prior treatments to make more insightful decisions.

‍

Conversational AI for Healthcare

Conversational AI utilizes advanced automation, artificial intelligence, and natural language processing (NLP) to make machines capable of understanding and responding to human language, via voice or text. Think of it as the brain behind the chat window - like a human brain, it has the flexibility, processing power, and learning ability to engage in complex conversation. Advanced conversational AI platforms can seamlessly ingest data from healthcare organizations, patients, and various other sources to become better at the services they offer.

In contrast, traditional chatbots have a narrow scope and rely on rigid intent-based flows, causing them to stumble when they are asked a question they do not have an answer for, or if the question is worded slightly differently than what they were trained with. On the other hand, conversational AI solutions can use language in much the same way humans do, with an understanding of the particular context, nuances, dialects, and a working memory of the conversation.

More and more healthcare organizations are investing in advanced conversational AI platforms that promise to boost the patient experience and streamline organizational efficiency. With the right platform, conversational AI improves patient engagement and opens new avenues for access, while improving healthcare outcomes by enabling:

Appointment scheduling: Access to care may be limited if the only way to book an appointment is through a phone call, as some patients might struggle due to a language barrier, social anxiety, or other factors. Conversational AI solves this problem by making it easy to find a provider and book an appointment online, through text or voice.

Appointment reminders: An AI-powered virtual assistant can issue reminders to patients directly through SMS or via social channels, so that there are fewer no-shows.

Electronic prescribing: Patients can use an advanced chatbot to request a refill or reauthorization of a prescription.

Communication with healthcare professionals: The lack of opportunity to converse with healthcare professionals presents a significant barrier to accessing care. Conversational AI allows patients to ask critical questions that physicians can respond to electronically or mark to be addressed in the next appointment.

Distribution of public health information: A conversational AI platform helps ensure the health and safety of communities by offering quick and easy access to key information from verified sources, taking significant pressure off of healthcare professionals who can focus on more critical activities.

Trend #2: Telehealth and Remote Care

Although the pandemic may be (hopefully) approaching endemic status, many of the changes it causes in care delivery are here to stay, none more so than telehealth and video conferencing. The use of virtual care skyrocketed in the last year and that trend is expected to continue in 2022 and beyond, with as many as 64% of global healthcare leaders saying they're currently investing heavily in it.

On the patient side, the appetite for digital health appears to be stronger than ever. According to the 2021 HIMSS Future of Healthcare Report, more than half of patients surveyed indicated they would be open to telehealth visits exclusively, with this all-digital inclination being especially pronounced among younger respondents. Moreover, when asked how they felt about all healthcare visits being virtual by the year 2025, 52% of those surveyed reported being "somewhat" or "strongly in favor", indicating an overall positive inclination.

As remote care continues to gain traction both in the U.S. and worldwide, it is expected to eclipse traditional in-person visits in the coming years. However, before that happens, care providers must ensure that they are HIPAA compliant. While some restrictions were relaxed during the peak of the pandemic to enable wider access to care, that will no longer be the case going forward. It's crucial for healthcare organizations to thoroughly evaluate the applications they use to communicate with their patients remotely and ensure they meet regulatory standards.

Trend #3: Digital Therapeutics

Digital therapeutics (DTx) are devices that deliver evidence-based therapeutic interventions, via software like mobile health and wellness apps, to replace or complement the existing treatment of a disease. They differ from the broader digital health market as they are subject to approval by regulatory bodies and must display a viable proof-of-concept. With virtually limitless possibilities, it's not surprising that Insider Intelligence forecasts the DTx market to be a $56 billion global opportunity by 2025.

DTx vendors are currently leveraging their technology to treat chronic and behavioral conditions, which make up the bulk of healthcare spending in the U.S. However, the growing need for therapeutic treatments combined with the long-term effects of the pandemic are fueling growth in new areas in the global DTx market. As pandemic-induced anxiety and depression continue, DTx companies are poised to make an impact by complementing existing treatments or even replacing them altogether.

‍

Trend #4: Remote Patient Monitoring

In a similar vein to the rise of telehealth, healthcare providers are increasingly turning to remote patient monitoring devices as a way to complement remote care delivery, a trend that is here to stay for the long haul. To ensure non-stop patient monitoring and help with the treatment of complex diseases, clinicians provide patients with wearable devices that measure critical health data, remind patients to take their medication, and send back relevant data for monitoring.

Such devices serve to maximize access to care, strengthen connections with at-risk populations, and minimize the transmission of COVID-19 while providing engaging patient experiences. Wearables help healthcare organizations reduce the strain on scarce resources by cutting down on time and costs while delivering outstanding care. The many benefits for both patients and providers have served as a driver to implement digital health solutions at scale throughout the U.S., particularly in underserved areas such as rural regions and with disadvantaged populations.

While this trend is another positive step forward, there is still a long way to go. According to the World Bank and World Health Organization (WHO), half the world still lacks access to essential health services and, without drastic action, it's estimated that 5 billion people will be unable to access healthcare resources by 2030. This alarming prediction illustrates the need for advanced healthcare organizations to continue to develop innovative digital health technologies that improve access to quality healthcare for all.

Trend #5: Improved Payment Collections in Healthcare

Prior to the pandemic, the medical billing landscape had remained relatively stable. However, the COVID-induced chaos has significantly sped up the healthcare industry's digital transformation, bringing about new advancements and paradigm shifts in all domains. In addition to firmly cementing as the de-facto method of care delivery, the pandemic has also illuminated a need to improve the management of administrative tasks, particularly when it comes to billing and claims processing.

A few key trends in medical billing to watch in 2022 include:

Artificial Intelligence: AI is already being used in many billing solutions and its scope is expected to continue to expand, thanks to its ability to prevent errors in medical coding, reduce time spent on manual labor, and analyze data. ‍

Integrating EHRs into the billing process: As medical billing systems continue to improve, integrating EHRs into the billing workflow provides a multitude of benefits, including saving time on data entry, simplifying access to medical histories, and offering a seamless data flow. ‍

SaaS solutions: This model provides many advantages for healthcare systems, as software vendors are responsible for infrastructure, maintenance, and updates. This means that healthcare organizations can reduce spending, increase data security, and ensure uninterrupted access to services.

Common challenges, such as staff efficiency, payments not being made on time, and a lack of proper billing software are all issues that can be addressed with the right tech solutions. For example, integrated e-Prescription systems can provide healthcare workers with details on insurance coverage to ensure that patients are only prescribed drugs covered by their insurance plans. All the paperwork, including insurance coverage, is automatically verified, so all the patient has to do is pick up their prescription, or have it delivered to their residence.

Trend #6: Virtual and Augmented Reality

When we look back on this particular time in history, we will without a doubt remember the turbulence of the pandemic. But, not to be outdone, the advent of the metaverse will also likely stand out as a zeitgeist-defining development. And if Mark Zuckerberg is to be believed, our hypothetical foray into the past may be a wholly immersive experience thanks to advanced virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technology.

What is the Difference Between VR and AR?

According to research by Deloitte, almost 90 percent of companies with annual revenues between $100 million and $1 billion are now leveraging augmented reality or virtual reality technology. With these technologies garnering so much interest, let's take a moment to differentiate between the two.

‍

Virtual reality immerses people in experiences, usually through the use of sophisticated technology such as headsets. On the other hand, augmented reality usually begins with a real view of a device like a camera or mobile phone, and then projects realistic images onto the screen or viewer to enhance the lifelike experience.

‍

Today, the most common uses of AR and VR are in gaming. But, that is slowly shifting, as more industries begin to adopt these sophisticated technologies. According to research from IDC, the combined augmented reality and virtual reality markets were worth $12 billion in 2020 and, with a massive annual growth rate of 54%, they are projected to reach a valuation of $72.8 billion by 2024.

VR and VR in Healthcare

Virtual and augmented reality tech is already starting to make its mark in the healthcare industry, with a wide range of practical applications, including improved medical treatments, helping individuals with developmental disorders, and simulating surgeries to reduce errors.

‍

VR tech is also statistically proven to provide healthcare workers with enhanced training that leads to better outcomes. It has been reported to reduce skill fade by 52% and improve retention by up to 75%, compared with 10% for traditional methods. Another study on the impact of VR training in healthcare revealed that students who received VR training were able to complete medical procedures 20% faster than a control group who only received traditional training, with the VR-trained group also completing 38% more steps correctly than the traditionally-trained group.

‍

Treating anxieties and phobias represents another practical use for VR and AR technology on the patient care side, as healthcare professionals can use these immersive tools to simulate real-life scenarios where people feel psychologically challenged, such as fear of insects, fear of confined spaces, or social anxiety. This type of immersive therapy has proven to be highly effective, with Oxford VR reporting a 68% reduction in fears and phobias after an average treatment length of just two hours.

Trend #7: IoT in Healthcare

Let's start with a simple definition. The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a connected infrastructure of health care systems and services, aimed at providing effective remote care thanks to innovative technology and data integration.

‍

Although there is some overlap between IoMT and remote patient monitoring, IoMT is a broad term that encompasses all types of technologies, while remote patient monitoring refers to devices that help gather, monitor, and process data for improved patient outcomes. The value of digital medical solutions was on full display throughout 2020-2021, and it's safe to say that that upward trend will continue, as the global IoMT market is expected to grow to $254.2 billion by 2026.

‍

IoMT devices are of the highest value in providing high-quality care, by providing options for healthcare in remote areas that do not have full-time hospitals and giving the option for accessing care from home, something that is especially critical for individuals with limited mobility or those in more isolated communities. Portable devices can run a variety of regular tests and share the results remotely with physicians, all from the comfort of a patient's own home.

‍

In addition to patient-centered benefits, there are financial advantages as well. A Goldman Sachs report estimated that IoT healthcare could save the American healthcare system $300 billion by improving accessto diagnostic, treatment, and preventative care with telehealth, behavior modification, and remote patient monitoring exhibiting the most potential.

‍

Trend #8: Employee Wellness Apps

Given the significant mental health effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, specifically among healthcare workers, it's no surprise that wellness initiatives were on the rise over the last two years. Given the widespread benefits on both mental and physical health, that trend will undoubtedly continue to gain traction. In fact, Deloitte's Future of Health report projects wellness to continue as one of the most important digital health trends in the next 20 years, particularly through the use of various apps that offer a variety of benefits for both workers and employers alike, including:

Lower costs: In 2018, reports estimated health apps might save the U.S. healthcare system $7 billion each year. ‍

Higher job satisfaction: A report from SHRM found that 48% of U.S. employees claim that they would have more confidence in digital health tools if their employer offered them, with 26% saying that they would be more inclined to stay with their current employer if such apps were offered. ‍

More personalization: Most health and wellness apps allow users to set up personal profiles to track key measures like weight, calorie count, mood, and other metrics, giving people more visibility and greater control over their health. .

Trend #9: Increased Focus on Healthcare Privacy and Security

There has been a worrying trend of increased cybersecurity attacks in recent years in virtually all industries, healthcare included. Despite greater precautions and more healthcare provider awareness, data breach statistics demonstrate a dramatic increase over the past few years.

‍

Cybersecurity firm Carbon Black's report on cybersecurity in healthcare found an average of 816 attempted attacks per endpoint in 2020 - a 9,851% increase from 2019. With multiple data breaches and attacks affecting thousands of patients across the U.S., it's clear that cybersecurity and data protection will play an increasingly crucial role in 2022, as healthcare providers look to protect their digital ecosystems and patient data.

‍

The first essential step towards avoiding a data breach is to ensure HIPAA compliance. Organizations that operate internationally should also consider the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union.

‍

To prevent data breaches, healthcare organizations can take additional actions such as conducting annual cybersecurity checks, providing adequate training for staff, keeping all devices and records and tight supervision, and ensuring all systems are up-to-date and protected against unauthorized access.

Trend #10: Smart Implants

Smart implants are personalized bio-implants that have diagnostic capabilities, in addition to providing therapeutic benefits. In 2022, it's expected that more advanced implant technologies will make an impact in the healthcare market both in the U.S. and worldwide, promising higher efficiency in regenerative medicine and better outcomes for patient rehabilitation. Some devices even have the potential to offer cures for disabilities that were previously thought to be incurable.

‍

The advent of advanced 3D bioprinting technology has been a major accelerator of the smart implant domain and is expected to continue to drive its growth. In fact, the volume of 3D printing opportunities in the healthcare domain is estimated to surpass $6 billion by the year 2027. While 3D bioprinting is not a new method, the technology is set to become more reliable and accessible in 2022, thanks to new materials and more sophisticated prosthetics methods.

Looking Ahead: Fully Embracing Innovation

As we continue to navigate the pandemic, it's clear that the healthcare industry has undergone monumental changes that are here to stay for the long haul. With remote care becoming the new gold standard, and advancements in diagnostic, training, and patient engagement tools reaching new heights, healthcare organizations have no choice but to adapt.

‍

The consensus among experts is that new technologies promise more accurate and wide-reaching care, along with greater organizational efficiency, to the benefit of patients and healthcare workers alike.

‍

On paper, it seems simple. Healthcare organizations should embrace these trends and implement new technologies to provide better care and run more efficiently. The reality, however, is much more complex. To navigate various priorities, challenges, and stakeholders, many healthcare leaders are adopting a three-step approach to digital transformation, as outlined in the Philips Future Health Index 2021 report :

Step 1: Investment in telehealth to bolster care delivery during the pandemic and beyond.

Step 2: Investment in artificial intelligence as a powerful enabler of operational efficiency and improved diagnosis and treatment.

Step 3: Establish strategic partnerships with technology companies and others to drive forward digital transformation.

The technology that powers many of the trends outlined in this article isn't particularly new - in fact, some of it has been around for years. The COVID-19 pandemic gave the health industry as a whole the push forward that it needed to embrace technology and new trends and understand the value that they bring.

‍

As healthcare organizations prepare for the year ahead and beyond, fully embracing innovation and cutting-edge technology is the key to unlocking a brighter future of higher quality care that is more accessible to all.

others begin depending on their leader to make all their decisions

Laissez Faire
Your Laissez-faire leadership score is 0 out of a possible 80.

Laissez faire leadership style is made up of 2 elements:

Laissez-Faire (LF) where the leader exercises little control over their team, leaving them to sort out their roles and tackle their work on their own. This approach can leave the team floundering with little direction or motivation.

Management by exception (passive) (MBEp) describes leaders who do not seek to change the exsiting working methods or team membersso long as performance goals are met. The leader only intervenes if something is wrong. In this case, it is "passive," where the leader does nothing until a problem or mistake has actually occurred.

Your MBEP score is 0
Your LF score is 0

Laissez faire may be an effective style to use when:

team members are highly skilled, experienced, and educated

team members have pride in their work and the drive to do it successfully on their own

outside experts, such as staff specialists or consultants are being used

This style may not be appropriate when:

it makes team members feel insecure

the leader cannot provide regular feedback to let the teamknow how well they are doing.

leaders are unable to thank team members for their good work.

the leaders doesn't understand their responsibilities and is hoping the team can cover for them

How to be a perfect leader? Emotional Intelligence!

# data[].attributes.body
Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand and manage your own emotions, and those of the people around you. People with a high degree of EI know what they're feeling, what their emotions mean, and how these emotions can affect other people.

Five key elements:
1. Self-awareness
- understand my feelings, how my emotions and actions can affect others
- knowing my own strengths and weaknesses
- behaving with Humility
Ways to improve:
Keep a journal - recording my thoughts
Slow down - clam down to examine why when strong emotions emerge. "No matter anything, I can always choose how I react to it."

2. Self-regulation
- Its all about staying in control. Avoid verbally attack others, make rushed or emotional decisions, stereotype people, or compromise their values
- commitment to personal accountability
Ways to improve:
Know your values - spend time examining my 'code of ethics'
Hold myself accountable - Make a commitment to admit to your mistakes and to face the consequences
Practice being calm

3. Motivation
- Self-motivated leaders work consistently toward their goals, and they have extremely high standards for the quality of their work
Ways to improve:
Re-examine why you're doing your job
Be hopeful and find something good - be optimistic

4. Empathy
- Leaders with empathy have the ability to put themselves in someone else's situation.
- They help develop the people on their team, challenge others who are acting unfairly, give constructive feedback, and listen to those who need it.
Ways to improve:
Put yourself in someone else's position
Pay attention to body language
Respond to feelings

5. Social Skills
- Be a great communicators. Open to hearing bad news as good news.
- Leaders set an example with their own behavior
- Managing change and resolving conflicts diplomatically
Ways to improve:
Learn conflict resolution
Improve your communication skills
Learn how to praise others

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The more that you, as a leader, manage each of these areas, the higher your emotional intelligence. So, let's look at each element in more detail and examine how you can grow as a leader.

Emotional Intelligence in Leadership

1. Self-awareness

If you're self-aware, you always know how you feel, and you know how your emotions and your actions can affect the people around you. Being self-aware when you're in a leadership position also means having a clear picture of your strengths and weaknesses, and it means behaving with humility.

So, what can you do to improve your self-awareness?

Keep a journal. Journals help you improve your self-awareness. If you spend just a few minutes each day writing down your thoughts, this can move you to a higher degree of self-awareness.

2. Self-regulation

Leaders who regulate themselves effectively rarely verbally attack others, make rushed or emotional decisions, stereotype people, or compromise their values. Self-regulation is all about staying in control.

This element of emotional intelligence, according to Goleman, also covers a leader's flexibility and commitment to personal accountability.

So, how can you improve your ability to self-regulate?

Hold yourself accountable. If you tend to blame others when something goes wrong, stop. Make a commitment to admit to your mistakes and to face the consequences, whatever they are. You'll probably sleep better at night, and you'll quickly earn the respect of those around you.

Practice being calm. The next time you're in a challenging situation, be very aware of how you act. Do you relieve your stress by shouting at someone else? Practice deep-breathing exercises to calm yourself. Also, try to write down all of the negative things you want to say, and then rip it up and throw it away. Expressing these emotions on paper (and not showing them to anyone!) is better than speaking them aloud to your team. What's more, this helps you challenge your reactions to ensure that they're fair!

3. Motivation

Self-motivated leaders work consistently toward their goals, and they have extremely high standards for the quality of their work.

How can you improve your motivation?

Re-examine why you're doing your job. It's easy to forget what you really love about your career. So, take some time to remember why you wanted this job. If you're unhappy in your role and you're struggling to remember why you wanted it, try the Five Whys technique to find the root of the problem. Starting at the root often helps you look at your situation in a new way. And make sure that your goal statements are fresh and energizing. For more on this, see our article on Goal Setting.

4. Empathy

For leaders, having empathy is critical to managing a successful team or organization. Leaders with empathy have the ability to put themselves in someone else's situation. They help develop the people on their team, challenge others who are acting unfairly, give constructive feedback, and listen to those who need it.

If you want to earn the respect and loyalty of your team, then show them you care by being empathic.

How can you improve your empathy?

Respond to feelings. You ask your assistant to work late - again. And although he agrees, you can hear the disappointment in his voice. So, respond by addressing his feelings. Tell him you appreciate how willing he is to work extra hours, and that you're just as frustrated about working late. If possible, figure out a way for future late nights to be less of an issue (for example, give him Monday mornings off).

5. Social Skills

Leaders who do well in the social skills element of emotional intelligence are great communicators. They're just as open to hearing bad news as good news, and they're experts at getting their team to support them and be excited about a new mission or project.

Leaders who have good social skills are also good at managing change and resolving conflicts diplomatically. They're rarely satisfied with leaving things as they are, but they don't sit back and make everyone else do the work: they set an example with their own behavior.

So, how can you build social skills?

Summary

Motivational Interviewing (MI) is often recommended as an evidence-based approach to behavior change. However, definitions of MI vary widely, including out of date and inaccurate understandings. This document provides a brief summary of what MI is, what is isn't and where to go next if you are interested in learning more about this approach.

What is Motivational Interviewing?

"MI is a collaborative, goal-oriented style of communication with particular attention to the language of change. It is designed to strengthen personal motivation for and commitment to a specific goal by eliciting and exploring the person's own reasons for change within an atmosphere of acceptance and compassion." (Miller & Rollnick, 2013, p. 29)

The most current version of MI is described in detail in Miller and Rollnick (2013) Motivational Interviewing: Helping people to change (3rd edition). Key qualities include:

MI is a guiding style of communication, that sits between following (good listening) and directing (giving information and advice).

MI is designed to empower people to change by drawing out their own meaning, importance and capacity for change.

MI is based on a respectful and curious way of being with people that facilitates the natural process of change and honors client autonomy.

It is important to note that MI requires the clinician to engage with the client as an equal partner and refrain from unsolicited advice, confronting, instructing, directing, or warning. It is not a way to "get people to change" or a set of techniques to impose on the conversation. MI takes time, practice and requires self-awareness and discipline from the clinician. (Miller & Rollnick, 2009)

While the principles and skills of MI are useful in a wide range of conversations, MI is particularly useful to help people examine their situation and options when any of the following are present:

Ambivalence is high and people are stuck in mixed feelings about change

Confidence is low and people doubt their abilities to change

Desire is low and people are uncertain about whether they want to make a change

Importance is low and the benefits of change and disadvantages of the current situation are unclear.

Core elements of Motivational Interviewing

MI is practiced with an underlying spirit or way of being with people:

Partnership. MI is a collaborative process. The MI practitioner is an expert in helping people change; people are the experts of their own lives.

Evocation. People have within themselves resources and skills needed for change. MI draws out the person's priorities, values, and wisdom to explore reasons for change and support success.

Acceptance. The MI practitioner takes a nonjudgmental stance, seeks to understand the person's perspectives and experiences, expresses empathy, highlights strengths, and respects a person's right to make informed choices about changing or not changing.

Compassion. The MI practitioner actively promotes and prioritizes clients' welfare and wellbeing in a selfless manner.

MI has core skills of OARS, attending to the language of change and the artful exchange of information:

Open questions draw out and explore the person's experiences, perspectives, and ideas. Evocative questions guide the client to reflect on how change may be meaningful or possible. Information is often offered within a structure of open questions (Elicit-Provide-Elicit) that first explores what the person already knows, then seeks permission to offer what the practitioner knows and then explores the person's response.

Affirmation of strengths, efforts, and past successes help to build the person's hope and confidence in their ability to change.

Reflections are based on careful listening and trying to understand what the person is saying, by repeating, rephrasing or offering a deeper guess about what the person is trying to communicate. This is a foundational skill of MI and how we express empathy.

Summarizing ensures shared understanding and reinforces key points made by the client.

Attending to the language of change identifies what is being said against change (sustain talk) and in favor of change (change talk) and, where appropriate, encouraging a movement away from sustain talk toward change talk.

Exchange of information respects that both the clinician and client have expertise. Sharing information is considered a two way street and needs to be responsive to what the client is saying.

MI has four fundamental processes. These processes describe the "flow" of the conversation although we may move back and forth among processes as needed:

Engaging: This is the foundation of MI. The goal is to establish a productive working relationship through careful listening to understand and accurately reflect the person's experience and perspective while affirming strengths and supporting autonomy.

Focusing: In this process an agenda is negotiated that draws on both the client and practitioner expertise to agree on a shared purpose, which gives the clinician permission to move into a directional conversation about change.

Evoking: In this process the clinician gently explores and helps the person to build their own "why" of change through eliciting the client's ideas and motivations. Ambivalence is normalized, explored without judgement and, as a result, may be resolved. This process requires skillful attention to the person's talk about change.

Planning: Planning explores the "how" of change where the MI practitioner supports the person to consolidate commitment to change and develop a plan based on the person's own insights and expertise. This process is optional and may not be required, but if it is the timing and readiness of the client for planning is important.

MI is framed as a method of communication rather than an intervention, sometimes used on its own or combined with other treatment approaches. There are a number of benefits of learning MI amongst other approaches to helping conversations:

MI has been applied across a broad range of settings (e.g. health, corrections, human services, education), populations (e.g. age, ethnicity, religion, sexuality and gender identities), languages, treatment format (e.g. individual, group, telemedicine) and presenting concerns (e.g. health, fitness, nutrition, risky sex, treatment adherence, medication adherence, substance use, mental health, illegal behaviors, gambling, parenting).

MI compares well to other evidence-based approaches in formal research studies.

MI is compatible with the values of many disciplines and evidence-based approaches.

Although the full framework is a complex skill set that require time and practice, the principles of MI have intuitive or "common sense" appeal and core elements of MI can be readily applied in practice as the clinician learns the approach.

MI has observable practice behaviors that allow clinicians to receive clear and objective feedback from a trainer, consultant or supervisor.

Predictors of professional placement outcome: cultural background English speaking and international student status [Attrill et al, 2016] 

# data[].attributes.body
Learning in placement may be challenging for culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) students, international students, or those without sufficient English proficiency for professional practice. This study investigated whether these factors, which are hypothesized to influence acculturation, predict poor placement outcome.

Method
Placement outcome data were collected for 854 students who completed 2747 placements. Multilevel binomial regression analysis was used to determine whether being CALD student predicted placement outcome.

Key points:
- To succeed in these placements, international students and domestic CALD students must adjust to western settings; manage culturally unfamiliar approaches to learning, assessment and supervision; and conduct their practice in English.

- The extent of an individual's acculturation is influenced by several factors including their ethnic and cultural similarity to the receiving community, proficiency in the majority language. social supports, adaptation strategies, and the attitudes of the host culture.

-Individual acculturative factors such as personal attributes and values, sociodemographic status and coping strategies may also contribute to placement outcome, and should also be considered for future studies

Limitation:
There are likely to be many predictors of placement outcome including factors related

to student, supervisor, placement context and the assessment of competency, but this study did not aim to include these in modelling.

I attempted to lead the session with my co-worker. We have a few task to be done, and we managed to finish all. I know it wasn't our best efficiency, but take our time and chat about others irrelevant as a little break is good for team vibe, and its not necessary to push ourselves too hard.

I do think I can be more organise of the work plan. Prepare the work plan and figure out what are we looking before the meeting. Then, a clear action plan can be use to lead the team on progress.

Don't be too wordy! Keep text concise and clear.

Organization is key. Think about what you want to say first and then carefully consider layout.

Consider your audience. What will they have questions about? What do you want them to learn from your poster?

Make sure your title is descriptive and large enough to be readable from far away.

Think about image and font sizes so the poster is readable from 5-8 feet away.

Use headings, bullets, and graphics to break up text.

Make sure your images and graphics have contrast so they pop on the page.

Think about including contact information for those who want more information.

Remember, your poster will read left to right just like a page.
