Thinking about how the same gesture can be received as incredibly compassionate or just- not- depending on the actor.
Ex- after 4 was in the ED, I took cookies to say thank you. The nurse cried. "No one does this."
But if an org leader did the same, likely different response. 1/
I appreciate that the meaning and receipt of the gesture depends a lot on the power and intention of the person making it.
An org leader can change difficult working conditions and chooses instead to bring cookies, that's incompetent compassion for workers.
2/
I think the best case is to work in a system in which clinicians are so well cared for, that even small gestures by leaders can be received as helpful and a kind of love.
To get to that place requires fixing structural healthcare workplace issues first.
3/
This means that the compassion competence of the act depends not just on the needs of the person receiving it, but also on the valence of the actor and their power to shift other underlying sources of suffering.

Session TH103A Leading for Wellbeing with @KristinMDCT. Let's go! #hapc23 @AAHPM
Point 1: Wellbeing of leaders predicts wellbeing of staff. There are indices that are specific to leaders. #hapc23
Point 2. Psychological safety is critical to team wellness. (@AmyCEdmondson)
Defn: If you speak up, there is not a threat that you will be punished.
When people need help, they ask.
People can process mistakes, dissent, name problems even when hard. #hapc23
