THE LEADERSHIP LENS PODCAST - TILLER-HEWITT

How a Leader Discovered His WHY!

How Something So Small Can Change a Career Trajectory

 

Hey Leaders! Today my guest is Scott Johnson – Chief Strategy Officer at St Luke’s Health System.  I’ve had the privilege of working with Scott, executing his vision of successfully standing up over 70, yes seven zero physician outreach programs across the country simultaneously.  Don’t you just want to hear what makes a man with that kind of vision tick – of course you do - take a listen!

Knowns and Unknowns Matter

Moving from Innovation to Transformation Without Going off the Rails

Hey Leaders, you’re about to hear from a gifted and humble Chief Transformation Officer who shares valuable lessons from her journey as a practicing physician to Chief Innovation Officer and now the organization’s first Chief Transformation Officer.  She puts a very different spin on thinking outside the proverbial healthcare box because in her mind there is no box, speedbumps perhaps, but really how we must lead differently to be truly transformational.

Lessons That Drive Leadership & Organizational Growth

Today my guest is Yelena Bouaziz. Of all my podcast interviews, this might be my hardest to tee up because she took us to so- many - places.

You’ll love hearing about her journey as an only child, and an impressionable teenage girl, her family immigrated from Russia to (wait for it) North Carolina. From Russia to North Carolina. If that doesn’t scream culture shock, nothing will!  She shares a couple of very relevant lessons learned from the cultural differences that admittedly made her a better leader – and frankly, these lessons provide valuable reminders for all leaders!

She shares great advice for all you overachievers listening!  I kept saying – “OH, this will set someone free today!”

I loved an aha moment she recently experienced while having a conversation with her child’s teacher that ironically applies to all leaders today!

Then we jumped into Yelena's unprecedented expertise at Sg2 around consumer loyalty, innovation, what we can learn from outside healthcare, and what organizations miss when they uber-focus on market share data as their true north. 

When you finish with the podcast, Yelena shares so much more on our leadership webinar series titled: Don’t Expect Growth – Earn it with Customer Loyalty. You can find that full recording and slides on our website at www.tillerhewitt.com.

I’ll hush it up so you too can get all that Yelena brought to this podcast.

The Power of Leadership Influence

30-Seconds to Change a Career Trajectory

My guest today is Chris Klay, President & CEO of St. Elizabeth’s Hospital, a member of the Hospital Sisters Health System or HSHS.

Chris has one of those stories and a powerful lesson for other leaders.

Leadership: Watch & Listen

When Leaders Leave the Room

Today my guest is Frank Sawyer – VP of Operations at Trinity Health Oakland Hospital.

Frank is a young leader who didn’t waste time climbing the corporate ladder – but he did so it in a manner that reminded me of the great leaders highlighted in Jim Collins’ NYT best-selling book Good to Great. He shares some of his servant-leadership traits and I particularly loved what he said about what to watch for when leaders leave the room. He hooked me when he shared his thoughts on empowerment – empowering people – see what you think!

Leading with an Abundance Mentality

Doubt Your Doubts

While a former Marine – William made it clear what he learned most about leadership came from Al Mahoney – his very own drill Sargent – better known as dad. 

William is also the senior Vice President of the health system’s Community Hospital Group overseeing Cox Health’s rural hospitals.
