Ochsner Leadership Podcasts

In the final episode of this series, as well as in our season, we explore a leader's perspective on listening to her team. Cicely Lewis, Director of the GI Surgical Stepdown Unit at Ochsner Main Campus, Jefferson Hwy, as well as an RN-BSN on her unit, Elias Esquivel. They discuss the importance of listening on their team and recommendations for how leaders can implement some of their best practices.

In the second episode of this 3-part series on listening, we explore the concept of deep listening: listening beyond only what your team members say, but even what they don’t say, and how it all contributes to a larger story your team is telling you. Hear from our guest speakers Susan Bacher, AVP of Partnerships and Integrations and Hillary Davis, Regional D&I Director of the Northshore Region as they share best practices of listening deeply and how it can create deeper trust between you and your team.

Finances are among the top stressors of Americans. In fact, 70% of Ochsner employees have a desire to improve their financial wellbeing, a key aspect of overall wellbeing. Ochsner is committed to providing resources to support this and every aspect of employee wellbeing, but it’s often up to leaders to ensure their teams know these resources exist and how to use them well. Listen to this episode of Thrive at Ochsner where we’ll hear from an Ochsner leader and from the Office of Professional Wellbeing on ways you can support your team’s financial wellbeing.
