connections, and create their own. They
have to examine interactions, see how
people respond to each other, look at
formal and informal relationships, and
watch how influence flows.
" After you have an understanding of
where power and influence exists within
your organization, you have to really
watch and pay attention to the interactions
that happen, " says Wyatt.
In healthcare, many leaders may
have different roles and titles in different
departments, and their influence is
different in each arena. It is important
for managers to know the different roles
and the relationships that accompany
those roles.
" In the end, it is important to not be
afraid of politically powerful people, "
says Wyatt. " You have to get to know
them and understand what is important
to them, and you must be genuine. "
Develop your EQ
" Developing your EQ [emotional quotient]
is one of the most important
things a manager can do, " says Wyatt.
This means becoming self-aware and
having emotional self-awareness.
One of the biggest challenges for
managers is to work with someone who
is not self-aware and who evaluates
their capabilities differently than everyone
around them. It is also a fundamental
flaw of managers when they can't
stop and be self-aware and have some
insight.
Wyatt says he has often asked managers
he works with to pay attention to
the impact they have on people around
them and to note when their team is
functioning at its best.
When managers see their teams " firing
on all cylinders, " they should stop
and look at what they were doing when
it happened, he says. " Were they in
the middle of it? Were they encouraging
from the sidelines? Were they completely
away from it? "
doing and the impact it had on their
teams that is important, says Wyatt.
The outcome they want is for their staff
members to continue firing on all cylinders
and to facilitate that.
Becoming self-aware is challenging
for managers because they first need to
find the cues around them to tell them
what they are actually like. " We all view
ourselves differently than other people
view us because it is clouded by what
we want to see and what we want to
be, " he says.
If managers function from the basis
that no one is capable of really evaluating
themselves, then they will find other
ways and pay attention to other cues.
Unfortunately, says Wyatt, a lot of the
people managers are surrounded by
aren't good sources because they report
to them and want something from them.

emotional self-awareness, as are emotional
control and adaptability. " I don't
think we can underscore adaptability
enough, " says Wyatt. When leaders decide
what their leadership style is and
never change or sway from it, they are
telling those around them that " this
is who I am, and everyone around me
should adapt to me, " he says.
" It is simply not reasonable for a
leader to say that or believe that or act
like that, " says Wyatt. " Leaders must
adapt to their teams because their
teams are ever-changing. "
Amid the migration to disposable products in the OR environment and rising concern
over medical waste that is landfilled or burned, HEINE, a global manufacturer of
primary diagnostic instruments, wants to help healthcare providers look at product
procurement from a quality and sustainability point of view. According to Christian
Berling, Vice President of Sales and Marketing, the company has created the next
generation of laryngoscope systems so that providers do not have to compromise
on performance or environmental impact. In this interview, Berling shares insights
about responsible product innovation and the importance of executable instructions
for use (IFU) while dispelling myths about the cost and safety of reusable products.
