13
Waiting
• Unnecessary Meetings– For each weekly / monthly meeting ask:
“What have been the measurable outcomes and accomplishments over the past year based on attending this meeting?”
If the answer is none, consider eliminating or reducing the frequency of the meeting.
14
Waiting
• Best Known Methods- Addressing Unproductive Meetings– Make it clear that meetings do not have to run the
scheduled length of time; done early, leave early!– Cut all meeting times by 15 minutes
15
Waiting
• Productive meetings– Require an agenda with designated time slots for
topics• Stick to the designated time. • If consensus or an answer can not be reached on the
topic in the allotted time:– Consider tabling to next meeting– Consider breaking topic into sub group to report back with
recommendation– Consider dropping the topic
16
Strategies for Making Meetings Productive
• Have a clear purpose and objective for the meeting and if you do not, don’t have the meeting
• Start and end on time• Make the meetings shorter so people stay more focused• Have an agenda and meeting roles
– Facilitator / Timekeeper / Gatekeeper• Avoid side bar conversations. One person speaks at a time• Summarize decisions, the people responsible and due dates
for actions• Eliminate distractions: no cell phones or laptops
17
Action Item #1
• Look at your calendar and analyze your on-going scheduled meetings– Determine if there are any unproductive
meetings that you can cut– Identify those that you own and cut 15 to 30
minutes off each– For those you do not control, suggest shortening
the time and improving facilitation
18
Over Processing • Tasks that you do that take time but have limited impact
– The bucket of ice example– The ham example
• Are there things you produce that are not necessary (i.e. reports)– Go to those that receive reports to see how valuable and how
often they need it
• Are there things that you produce that are done elsewhere? (Duplication)– Have your EHR’s made some paperwork unnecessary?– Where do the reports go and why?
19
Action Item #2• Analyze the tasks / processing that you do– Be honest with yourself to identify if there are tasks
that do not provide enough value to justify the time spent
– Reach out to those that receive your output• Ask them how much they use your information and if it is
needed in the same frequency – Connect with others in your organization who may
produce similar reports etc…• Look for areas of duplication and facilitate sharing of
information / results• Learn if it can be done more efficiently
20
Inventory • E-mail distributions that you do not need that
clog up your inbox• Miles and miles of old e-mails in your inbox• Piles of files and paper around on or in your
desk
21
E-mail Management Strategies • Manage your time spent on e-mail– Avoid hovering over your inbox throughout the day– Schedule in your calendar two to three times throughout
the day that you will answer e-mail• Preferably: When you start the day / Mid day / Before
you leave• If you do this you may only need 30 mins each time• This will keep you more focused throughout the day
and open up time for improvement coaching
22
- David Allen- Getting Things Done
E-mail Management Strategies • While you are managing your e-mail:
– Step one, ask: Do I need to take action? • If no, determine if it is value added material (if not discard)• If it is value added and you can read it in 2 mins or less, do it• If it is valued but not crucial and will take time, file it in a “Nice
to Read at Some Point” file • If it is valued and necessary that you have to review, but will
take time, file it in a “Hot Review” file and schedule time to review contents in that file
23
- David Allen- Getting Things Done
E-mail Management Strategies
• While you are managing your e-mail:– If you need to take action• Determine if it will take more than two minutes
to do– If it takes two minutes or less, do it– If it takes more than two minutes
» Delegate or schedule doing the task » Add it to your task list (do it within 2 days)
24
- David Allen- Getting Things Done
Action Item #3
• Adopt at least one or possibly all of the discussed e-mail management strategies– When you receive any non-value added e-mails
from distributions, unsubscribe– Schedule specific time slots and throughout your
day where you will answer e-mail and stick to those times
– Use the Actionable – Non Actionable > or < 2 minute e-mail strategy
25
Action Item: Extra Credit
• At least once a week get to Zero in your inbox– Either answer it, file it, schedule it, delegate it, or
delete it until you are at zero• Then quickly shut off your PC and go home!
– It is very productive, empowering & feels great!
26
- David Allen- Getting Things Done
Talent• Analyze tasks vs. talent– Is there someone else that is better or more
skilled at the tasks than you?– Is there someone else that wouldn’t mind doing
the tasks?– What can you delegate to open more time for
improvement coaching? Remember: Your delegation may be someone
else’s development opportunity!
27
Action Item #4
• Find at least one task to delegate to someone who may be better suited and enjoy the task more.
• Teach them, and have a plan to check in with them from time to time.

Strong Improvement Teams: Discussion
What is the most challenging part of creating and sustaining independent work teams?
30
Finding Team Leaders to Coach Who might be ready for a more independent role? Ask!
“I’m looking for someone to lead a team on CAUTI starting in February – if you are interested, please talk to me by Thursday.”
Those who are naturally trusted and respected Reach out to them, give them time to decide
Those with an interest in the topic at hand Not someone who is already overburdened – avoid the
“Same Ten People” problem
31
Developing Self Sustaining Improvement Teams
• Managers and directors can’t do it all!• Have the one-on-one conversation with your
team lead(s) before the work starts:– What their role is (and where their boundaries are)– How you will determine the team is successful– What evidence you need to see from the team
32
• If this wasn’t done in the beginning - do it soon.
Leading when teams are off track
• Act ASAP! (Anything not addressed is condoned)
• Ask for the deliverables: Data, minutes, reports, etc.
• Discuss with those accountable what you see of the evidence for lack of progress
• Consider a Root Cause Analysis
33
Action Item #5: Root Cause Analysis

Is there an issue with: How is this apparent? Why is this happening?(Ask why again…)
Implementation or Execution?Lack of clear expectations?Culture or attitudes?

Timeliness of Coaching • Look for the “Golden Moments”– Team Huddles• Not everything must have a formal meeting• Bring the group together in the hallway or in your office• Gather feedback, “Any concerns….?”• Leave the group with something positive, “I know it was
rough yesterday, but I appreciate the leadership you showed.”
– Elevator coaching• Quick words in passing, “Sue - Nice work in the team
yesterday”• Be sure to use the person’s name in these moments
37
