    Prioritizing Diversity and Inclusion for a Better Workplace with Prof. Dr. Ulrike Attenberger| Christoph Zindel

    Diversity and inclusion are big topics in business today. While it’s something many organizations are striving for, it’s not always understood on a statistical or emotional level. When employees don’t feel as though they’re part of the team, the consequences can mount up to something much bigger. Feeling “apart” takes a toll on not only performance, but also the health of the employee. Likewise, a lack of diversity means a lack of varied experience. This can hold the whole team back, and foster a lack of understanding. Healthcare bears a unique responsibility when it comes to fostering an environment of comfort and consideration. Understanding the needs of patients is much more than tending to wounds and performing surgeries. At its core, it’s about empathy. When empathy and understanding exist within the work environment, only then can they effectively translate to the realm of care.  In this episode, Managing Board Member Christoph Zindel interviews Prof. Dr. Ulrike Attenberger.  Professor Attenberger is Director of the Clinic for Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology at Bonn University Hospital in Germany, and a member of the Diversity @ DRG Commission. Her interest in gender diversity led to her contribution to a 2018 special report entitled “Women in radiology: gender diversity is not a metric—it is a tool for excellence”, published by European Radiology. In today’s conversation, you’ll hear about the positive influence of a diverse workforce within the healthcare sector. Professor Attenberger believes that diversity allows us to embrace dimensionality, and shares how this reflects positively in the workplace. She also reveals the ways in which inclusivity can be achieved through organizational reforms, and how it has the capacity to benefit physicians as well as patients.  Some Questions Asked: What is diversity and inclusion for you? (2:15)How should physicians take diversity into account in their work and training? (10:46)What can be done to increase the representation of women in leadership? (15:22)How do you foster inclusion at the University Hospital in Bonn, and in medicine as a whole? (22:38) What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The dangers of homogeneous healthcare (4:49)The most important aspect of building a successful team (7:35) What we know about unconscious bias (13:23)Ideas about how we can close the gap on gender-based career obstacles (19:25) Connect with Ulrike Attenberger: University Hospital Bonn Connect with our Managing Board Member, Christoph Zindel:   LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.

    How Finland is Leading the Digital Healthcare Revolution with Päivi Sillanaukee, MD, PhD, eMBA | Christoph Zindel

    Every country is unique in its healthcare operations. Much of Europe has a long history of socialized medicine based on The Bismark Model, a German system dating back to 1883 which guarantees healthcare to its citizens. Programs in Europe and Asia are primarily adaptations of this model.  By the 1960s, however, Finland saw the need to rethink its healthcare system and create something that served its population better. A young group of doctors who were also in charge of policymaking took the lead in creating a new model. In 1972, the current Finnish healthcare system was signed into law, making public health centers the central concept.  In this episode, Managing Board Member Christoph Zindel interviews Dr. Päivi Sillanaukee, Director-General at the Finnish Ministry of Social Affairs and Health. Dr. Päivi Sillanaukee is the thematic Ambassador for Health and Wellbeing at the Ministry for Foreign Affairs of Finland as part of a pilot program of cross-sectoral cooperation on global issues. She also represents Finland on the World Health Organization’s Executive Board. We’ll learn how the healthcare model in Finland operates, the infrastructure it requires, and how this model actually encouraged digital innovation from its inception. We’ll also discover the lessons that can be extracted from this model that has been serving the Finnish population for nearly half a century.  Some Questions Asked: What can we learn from the system of healthcare in Finland? (2:30)How do you view the scalability of your system? (6:00)How can access to care be improved? (9:20)What conditions do policymakers need to create for digitization? (21:37)What advantages come from diversity in healthcare? (29:51)How do you stay healthy during the long winter months in Finland? (37:59) What You’ll Learn in This Episode: The role of socialized healthcare in Finland (3:39)How Finland built the infrastructure for digitalization (10:59)Two things you need in order to have digital innovation in healthcare (14:48)Why trust in technology among populations is so important (17:36)How culture plays a role in keeping us healthy (39:13) Connect with Dr. Päivi Sillanaukee: LinkedInTwitter Connect with our Managing Board Member, Christoph Zindel:   LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.

    A Visionary for Change: Ophthalmology and Accessibility with Aravind Srinivasan MS, MBA | Christoph Zindel

    Over half of the world's population lacks access to basic healthcare. Beginning to tackle this problem requires more than structural change in the way we provide care. A true sense of purpose to create and direct those changes is vital for the structural DNA of a healthcare system to be rewired.  Blindness was once a major problem for people all across India. The issue was accessibility to care in the early stages of ophthalmological complications. In 1976, Dr. Govindappa Venkataswamy opened the first Aravind Eye Hospital. The goal was to streamline care and make it more affordable while keeping the quality of care at a premium. Since its founding, the Aravind Eye Care System has expanded, serving more than 55 million patients across India. That legacy continues under the leadership of today’s guest. In this episode, Managing Board Member Christoph Zindel interviews Dr. Aravind Srinivasan, Chief Medical Officer at Aravind Eye Hospital Chennai. He is a cataract surgeon and expert in ophthalmology at Aravind Eye Care System. His focus is on management, innovation, and mentoring, specializing in evaluating and interpreting the performance of each division of AECS.    Dr. Aravind Srinivasan shares the organizational mission, being that if treatment exists, then there’s no reason for people to suffer blindness needlessly. Through streamlining and standardizing their process of care, Aravind Eye Care System has helped countless people gain access to treatment. Today we’ll hear about the personal motivation that led to building the system,  how it’s applied across India, and what it takes in terms of experience and personal drive in order to manage such a revolutionary system of healthcare.    Some Questions I Ask: Can you explain your system of healthcare? (3:36)How are you able to make care so affordable? (9:20)How have you increased accessibility to care in India? (13:21)Is telehealth contributing to accessibility during the Covid-19 pandemic? (17:55)What can other healthcare organizations learn from your model? (20:00)How do diversity and inclusion play a role in the building of your teams? (24:20)  What You’ll Learn in This Episode: How the problem of accessibility was addressed (4:35)Why a sense of purpose often gets lost in the business of healthcare (7:50)How poverty created a cultural barrier to asking for care (13:50)A simple example of streamlining that helped shape AECS (20:22)  Connect with Aravind Srinivasan MS, MBA: FacebookAravind Eye Care System  Connect with our Managing Board Member, Christoph Zindel:  LinkedIn  Hosted on Acast.
