In this episode of Culture Change RX, I discuss the concept of high reliability in healthcare, emphasizing the importance of setting ambitious goals. The conversation delves into the challenges of goal setting, the significance of a growth mindset, and the systems necessary for fostering high reliability organizations. I highlight the upcoming Healthcare Executive Forum, where healthcare leaders will explore strategies for achieving high reliability and continuous improvement.

  • Setting ambitious goals can drive organizational improvement.
  • Leaders and employees can often feel that big goals are impossible goals and a set up for failure.
  • Setting ambitious goals can lead to significant performance gains.
  • Celebrating the positive gains is important, even when goals are missed.
  • Goal systems are crucial for continuous improvement.
  • High reliability benefits patients, employees, and communities.
