Handling Multiple Roles as a Leader

Learn the best practices to expand your strategic impact on the organization and manage people, situations, and items effectively and ethically. Most organizations have strong operational leaders. Many ascended to their leadership roles from the ranks of managers and supervisors and are adept in their operational abilities. They tend to work to maintain the status quo. In today's complex business environment there is a need for a new approach to leadership, and the roles that leaders must play to solve complex problems have expanded greatly. These problems can't be solved with a single solution or diminutive action. In traditional leadership roles, the focus has been to play one of the following: planner (devising strategies to formulate a plan), director (assigning responsibilities), and controller (making sure everyone does what they should). These roles are outdated, as organizations in the 21st century require strategic leaders that challenge the prevailing view, and can act on big and small picture items at the same time while able to change course as needed. They need to lead with inquiry, engagement, and advocacy while operating from a deeply held humility and respect for others. This requires that leaders take on new roles that expand beyond stakeholders and encompass a broader society. This new style of leader must play new roles such as: visionary (providing a compelling prospective), architect (designing a desired outcome), coach (unleashing the ability of others), and influencer (guiding the actions and opinions of others). The traditional roles become woven into the way people work. This webinar will help you understand these new roles and will guide you on how to handle multiple roles as a leader. It will focus on the best practices and practical strategies that will guide leaders in incorporating, prioritizing, and executing their multiple leadership roles. This class will help leaders expand their strategic impact on the organization and manage people, situations, and items effectively and ethically.

You will be able to recognize the different types of leadership roles.
You will be able to identify the foundations of leadership.
You will be able to recognize how to handle multiple roles as a leader.

Medical Records 101: Responding to Requests for Patient Information

Learn how to navigate federal laws governing access of patients to their health information and educate yourself on new patient access initiatives. In the U.S., patients have always had the right to access copies of their medical records from physicians, hospitals and health plans covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA) - but for years this right was poorly understood by patients and entities covered by the law. But federal incentives for the purchase of electronic medical records have laid the groundwork for more seamless sharing of data with patients, and additional federal law - the Information Blocking Rules - established additional penalties for some entities that place obstacles in the path of sharing data with patients. On top of that, national health information networks previously only available for sharing of records among medical providers are opening additional pathways to patient access. Learn from the former policy and enforcement lead at the HHS Office for Civil Rights on how to navigate federal laws governing access of patients to their health information and educate yourself on new patient access initiatives that could become more widespread in the coming year.
