Known for developing high-performance leaders and teams in the corporate sector with organizations such as Target, General Mills, Walmart, CVS, Lilly, Aon, PepsiCo, and many others, GLLG will be launching its Workforce Belonging and Retention Training for Health System and Nursing Leaders at the Collaboratory in Fort Myers, Florida.
"Healthcare leadership is currently in crisis," says Llopis, a 15-year Forbes.com leadership strategy contributor. "Rising economic pressures, evolving business models, high labor costs, and several workforce challenges in the areas of talent management, retention, and belonging, particularly for nurses, are forcing healthcare leaders to navigate higher levels of uncertainty that most leaders are unprepared to tackle. Legacy leadership models of the past were not designed to embrace this environment of rapid complexity amidst significant ambiguity," continued Llopis, who is a faculty member at the American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE).
"The skills and competencies needed by practicing nurses such as clinical reasoning and clinical judgment, are a primary focus in nursing education. Patient centered care and the full human experience alongside those essential skills and competencies are key to providing safe and compassionate care," shares Raelene Brooks, Ph.D., RN, Dean of College of Nursing at University of Phoenix. "The remedy for burnout is connection and belonging. Nurses are advocates for their patients and that patient advocacy mindset can help find clear paths connecting us within a complex healthcare delivery environment."
Challenges Facing Healthcare Leadership:
- Contrary to common assumptions, according to Indeed's Global Work Wellbeing Survey (analyzed by the University of Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre), factors such as compensation and flexibility rank lower in their influence on work wellbeing. Instead, it's the social elements, particularly belonging and inclusion, that are the most influential factors.
- Legacy models approach reinvention with outdated operating standards that limit how both clinical and non-clinical leaders and managers can best contribute.
- Healthcare leadership must start allowing their employees to influence how they work beyond existing standards, based on their own realities and values as individuals. Especially now that employees are consumers with more career options.
This sentiment is validated in Indeed's - The Pulse of Healthcare 2024 report, which identifies significant gaps between employers' perceptions and the actual concerns of healthcare workers regarding burnout, job dissatisfaction, and job fulfillment:
- Healthcare employers underestimate the importance employees place on appropriate staffing in the workplace (20% vs. 50%), work-life balance (48% vs. 78%), and psychological safety measures (8% vs. 20%).
- Moreover, few employers perceived relationships between healthcare workers and patients and workers and colleagues as important to their employees despite their significant role for workers (18% vs. 46%).
Given the urgency of the moment, GLLG's 2025 goal is to teach over 1,000 health system and nursing leaders across clinical and non-clinical roles to restore humanity in healthcare leadership. GLLG utilizes its proprietary Leadership in the Age of Personalization Methodology, created from Llopis' research-fueled five published books. The methodology is designed to not only teach participants how to create work environments of belonging, but also to provide proven strategies to retain top talent and beyond, using highly personalized interactive scenario-based design-thinking exercises to unleash participants' diversity of thought.
"Our Leadership in the Age of Personalization methodology is foundational to shaping new mindsets in today's age of personalization, where it's no longer about the institution defining the individual, but about the individual defining the business – or as RBC Capital Markets calls it, The Individual Revolution," says Llopis. "Our approach is not to push content for participants to memorize; it's to pull content out of participants so they can sustain the learnings, apply them daily, and influence change across the enterprise. The goal is to help participants reinvent their approach to operationalizing work environments that account for the realities and capacities of their employees that, for many, have been suppressed for years," continues Llopis.
This reinvention means:
- Fostering environments that allow employees to align their unique talents with the institution's growth strategies – driving wellbeing while elevating the organization's ability to innovate and adapt.
- Empowering individuals to embrace reinvention by unlocking their potential while ensuring they are engaged, agile, and ready for the future to accelerate the institution's growth outcomes.
The data validates this time-sensitive need for healthcare leaders to reinvent with personalization to drive workforce retention and belonging. Indeed's Global Work Wellbeing Survey (analyzed by the University of Oxford Wellbeing Research Centre) reveals that:
- 59% of employees globally report feeling stressed most of the time
- 57% are not completely satisfied with their job
- 57% do not feel happy at work
These factors are not only barriers to reinvention readiness but also an indication that work environments are not serving the needs of their employees. This is further supported by GLLG's data, which shows that:
- 87% of managers agree that current work environments work against individuality.
- 76% of those managers strongly agree they are being forced to comply with how their company wants them to behave and work.
- 79% of leaders admit they are not ready for reinvention, with 69% of those leaders strongly agreeing they are uncertain of what their current roles should be.
- 69% of those leaders strongly agree they are uncertain of what their current roles should be.
- 89% of managers acknowledge that their current work approaches are not shaped nor rewarded to foster agility, resilience, or authenticity, all of which are essential for successful reinvention.
- 71% of those managers strongly agree their work environment causes unnecessary stress due to conflicting behavioral expectations.
This is further alarming when you consider PwC's Finding Opportunity in Reinvention Pulse Survey, which states that business executives and CEOs see the need for reinvention. As the report reveals, 84% of executives say executing at the pace needed to win in the market is a challenge, yet only 41% of executives say there is strong consensus about how they'll change the company's business model.
With both the work environment and unique individual needs in mind at the macro level, the two-day learning experience will help participants solve three time-sensitive opportunities:
- Deconstruct outdated leadership models and reconstruct new approaches. This will ensure that healthcare leaders and their organizations remain relevant, resilient, and agile in the face of uncertainty.
- Align business growth strategies with the true talents of the workforce. This will ensure healthcare leaders are proactive in utilizing their employees' distinct capabilities while further elevating their potential.
- Design workplace cultures of wellbeing that create harmony between the work environment and unique employee needs. This will accelerate innovation, increase retention, and attract top talent.
At the micro-level, participants will leave the learning experience with a personalized playbook to share with their colleagues and teams to further scale and position the organization to gain a unique competitive edge that can address a wide array of critical core competencies.
"This intensive, dynamic, and transformative two-day learning experience is for health system and nursing leaders who desire the skills, have the will to shift their mindset, and are ready to break free from the inertia that keeps pulling us away from what we aim to achieve," concludes Llopis.
