What is a crucial conversation?
A discussion between 2 or more people where
1) stakes are high
2) opinions vary
3) emotions run high

Why are they so difficult?
• We often learn from an early age to avoid confronting people.
• We feel uncomfortable.
• We lack skill & confidence.

Study results
• 1700 respondents from 13 hospitals – Doctors, nurses, other clinicians, administrators – Teaching, general, and specialty hospitals
• Identified conversation categories that are especially difficult, and at the same time, essential in health care – Teamwork – Performance/competence – Behavior

Study results
• 84 % physicians & 62% nurses & other clinical-care providers witnessed co-workers taking shortcuts that could be dangerous to patients
• 1 in 5 physicians say they have seen harm come to patients as a result of poor communication, teamwork, or performance
• 23% of nurses indicated that they are considering leaving their jobs because of these concerns

How often do we speak up?
• Only 1 in 10 respondents fully discussed concerns with co-workers
• Most indicated it was between difficult & impossible to confront people in crucial situations
• Much tougher to confront a physician, even by other physicians

Why don’t we speak up?
• We weigh the risk to benefit of having this conversation – Fear of retaliation
– Low confidence that it will make a difference or improvement
• Belief that “it’s not my job”
• Lack of opportunity

Talking to others
• We may not bring it to the attention of the
person involved, but we often will speak to others – 25% to 50% said they mentioned their concerns or
frustrations to other co-workers or the person’s supervisor, not because they thought it would fix the problem but to
• Create workarounds • Warn others • Blow off steam

Difficult Topics of Conversation
• Co-workers not following policies, guidelines, or accepted practice
• Concerns over co-worker competence – poor clinical judgment – missing basic skills – making mistakes*
• Poor teamwork – lack of support for co-workers – divisive behavior – disrespect – bullying

Starting the conversation
Too often we think we only have 2 options: • Option 1: Speak up and turn this person into a
sworn enemy OR • Option 2: Suffer in silence and make a bad
decision that may put patients at risk Add an Option 3: I can speak up AND maintain my relationship with this person & protect my patients.

Starting the Conversation
• The environment must feel safe • Conversation must be respectful
– Ask yourself, “How can I be 100% honest & 100% respectful at the same time?”
• Stick to the facts – Reduces an emotional response
• Give the other person the opportunity to share their view of the issues

When you disagree
• Listen – you probably agree more than you think
• Ground the conversation with the central issue, not the specifics
• Point out where you agree
• Don’t tell the other person they are wrong; rather, point out where you differ
