Ep. 10 - A Year of Capability Building (2025 Wrap Up) | Capability Corner

What a year it’s been. In this final episode of the season, Zoe, Michelle, and Karen come together (in person for the very first time!) to reflect on the conversations, challenges, and learnings that shaped their year in capability. It’s a relaxed, laughter-filled episode that looks back at what’s shifted across the healthcare landscape, how their own thinking has evolved, and what themes they’ll be taking into 2026. Part reflection, part reset — and a chance to reconnect with what capability building is really all about.

BONUS - Inclusive Learning with Vanessa Cameron | Capability Corner

Inclusion isn’t just about what you teach — it’s about what you’re willing to unlearn. In this bonus episode, Zoe sits down with nurse educator and disability advocate Vanessa Cameron to unpack what inclusion really looks like in education. Drawing on both lived experience and years of clinical teaching, Vanessa explores how thoughtful design, reflective practice, and unlearning outdated assumptions can help make learning safer and more equitable for everyone. This is a practical and honest conversation about rethinking educational design — and the real work it takes to build psychologically safe, inclusive spaces where capability can truly grow.

Ep. 9 - Performance Management for Modern Healthcare Teams | Capability Corner

Performance reviews get a bad rap — and for good reason. They’re often rushed, compliance-driven, and disconnected from what really matters: people, capability, and growth. In this episode, Zoe, Michelle, and Karen are joined by Emma Piercy, Learning Innovations Lead at Ausmed, to explore why performance management often falls short in healthcare — and how it can be redesigned to work better for everyone involved. Together, they unpack the real reasons reviews get delayed or avoided, the damage that can do to culture and trust, and how a culture of reflection and feedback helps you move from reactive firefighting to proactive capability-building. Emma also lifts the lid on Ausmed Perform™ — a new performance management tool built specifically for healthcare — and what early pilot results reveal about how it’s saving time, improving quality, and strengthening retention. Whether you’re still stuck in spreadsheets or already rethinking your approach, this episode offers practical insights, a few rants, and a whole lot of heart.

Ep. 8 - AI: Generative Learning & Governance (Pt. 2) | Capability Corner

The future of learning isn’t static — it’s responsive, reflective, and built for capability. In this follow-up to our first AI episode, Zoe, Michelle, and Ausmed CEO Will Egan explore the next phase of AI in learning: generative learning — and the governance frameworks that make it safe and useful in real-world healthcare settings. From rubrics and role-based prompts to closed systems and guardrails, this episode takes a look into how generative AI can personalise learning, support performance, and finally help us bridge the gap between theory and practice.

Ep. 6 - Governance Is Like Running a Family BBQ | Capability Corner

Forget policy binders and bureaucratic buzzwords, Zoe, Michelle and Karen are back with a grounded, challenging and surprisingly relatable take on governance. They explore the tensions between high-level governance ideals and the reality of applying them down in the weeds. What emerges is a refreshing discussion about how governance, when it's 'good', supports trust, capability, and clarity at every level of an organisation.
