#Diversity and #Inclusion - How can companies move from talking the talk to walking the walk?
In recent days Diversity and Inclusion have come to the forefront of what companies are paying attention to even in the midst of a pandemic.
Starting from hiring and promotion practices to processes to the branding offering and more companies are looking at ways to make D&I more real for their employees.
How can we take it from a vaguely abstract concept (to most people) to very concrete steps?
Ellis Laura Griffith, PhD Global Chief People Officer at ERM, began her CHRO journey with a memorable moment on the first day of her inaugural CHRO role, she was met with an unanticipated Q&A session. Given her background in consulting, Ellis was used to having the answers.

Demographic transference within organizations is shifting and there will continue to be an upsurge of more diverse and inclusive organizations as they outperform homogeneous organizations. But this is a slow progression, where can we start making organizational transformation now? We can start from the bottom; employees have more power than they may realize, to affect change. And although this may seem like a daunting call-to-action, employees have the power irrespective of budget or team size, to make an indelible impact on organizational change. Like many effectual grassroots movements, employees have the ability to create a new model that renders the existing model obsolete and lead the evolution of organizational transformation.

Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

Navigating Challenges: Mental Health, Legislation, and the Prison System in B...Guillermo Rivera
This conference will delve into the intricate intersections between mental health, legal frameworks, and the prison system in Bolivia. It aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the current challenges faced by mental health professionals working within the legislative and correctional landscapes. Topics of discussion will include the prevalence and impact of mental health issues among the incarcerated population, the effectiveness of existing mental health policies and legislation, and potential reforms to enhance the mental health support system within prisons.
CRISPR-Cas9, a revolutionary gene-editing tool, holds immense potential to reshape medicine, agriculture, and our understanding of life. But like any powerful tool, it comes with ethical considerations.
Unveiling CRISPR: This naturally occurring bacterial defense system (crRNA & Cas9 protein) fights viruses. Scientists repurposed it for precise gene editing (correction, deletion, insertion) by targeting specific DNA sequences.
The Promise: CRISPR offers exciting possibilities:
Gene Therapy: Correcting genetic diseases like cystic fibrosis.
Agriculture: Engineering crops resistant to pests and harsh environments.
Research: Studying gene function to unlock new knowledge.
The Peril: Ethical concerns demand attention:
Off-target Effects: Unintended DNA edits can have unforeseen consequences.
Eugenics: Misusing CRISPR for designer babies raises social and ethical questions.
Equity: High costs could limit access to this potentially life-saving technology.
The Path Forward: Responsible development is crucial:
International Collaboration: Clear guidelines are needed for research and human trials.
Public Education: Open discussions ensure informed decisions about CRISPR.
Prioritize Safety and Ethics: Safety and ethical principles must be paramount.
CRISPR offers a powerful tool for a better future, but responsible development and addressing ethical concerns are essential. By prioritizing safety, fostering open dialogue, and ensuring equitable access, we can harness CRISPR's power for the benefit of all. (2998 characters)

Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.

The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.
Defecation
Normal defecation begins with movement in the left colon, moving stool toward the anus. When stool reaches the rectum, the distention causes relaxation of the internal sphincter and an awareness of the need to defecate. At the time of defecation, the external sphincter relaxes, and abdominal muscles contract, increasing intrarectal pressure and forcing the stool out
The Valsalva maneuver exerts pressure to expel faeces through a voluntary contraction of the abdominal muscles while maintaining forced expiration against a closed airway. Patients with cardiovascular disease, glaucoma, increased intracranial pressure, or a new surgical wound are at greater risk for cardiac dysrhythmias and elevated blood pressure with the Valsalva maneuver and need to avoid straining to pass the stool.
Normal defecation is painless, resulting in passage of soft, formed stool
CONSTIPATION
Constipation is a symptom, not a disease. Improper diet, reduced fluid intake, lack of exercise, and certain medications can cause constipation. For example, patients receiving opiates for pain after surgery often require a stool softener or laxative to prevent constipation. The signs of constipation include infrequent bowel movements (less than every 3 days), difficulty passing stools, excessive straining, inability to defecate at will, and hard feaces
IMPACTION
Fecal impaction results from unrelieved constipation. It is a collection of hardened feces wedged in the rectum that a person cannot expel. In cases of severe impaction the mass extends up into the sigmoid colon.
DIARRHEA
Diarrhea is an increase in the number of stools and the passage of liquid, unformed feces. It is associated with disorders affecting digestion, absorption, and secretion in the GI tract. Intestinal contents pass through the small and large intestine too quickly to allow for the usual absorption of fluid and nutrients. Irritation within the colon results in increased mucus secretion. As a result, feces become watery, and the patient is unable to control the urge to defecate. Normally an anal bag is safe and effective in long-term treatment of patients with fecal incontinence at home, in hospice, or in the hospital. Fecal incontinence is expensive and a potentially dangerous condition in terms of contamination and risk of skin ulceration
HEMORRHOIDS
Hemorrhoids are dilated, engorged veins in the lining of the rectum. They are either external or internal.
FLATULENCE
As gas accumulates in the lumen of the intestines, the bowel wall stretches and distends (flatulence). It is a common cause of abdominal fullness, pain, and cramping. Normally intestinal gas escapes through the mouth (belching) or the anus (passing of flatus)
FECAL INCONTINENCE
Fecal incontinence is the inability to control passage of feces and gas from the anus. Incontinence harms a patient’s body image

3. Diversity: a powerful lever for change in an
ambiguous, complex world
Diversity is how we can become collectively smarter.
Diversity is the foundation for creativity. There are no best
practices for creativity, only unique practices, of which we
need many. We need to stop looking for the next best practice
and create our own emergent practices through our diverse
connections. Therefore, organisations have to become
knowledge networks. An effective knowledge network
cultivates the diversity and autonomy of each worker. Those in
leadership positions should foster deeper connections,
developed through ongoing and meaningful conversations.
These leaders know they are just nodes in the knowledge
network and not a special position in a hierarchy. They
ensure variety and diversity, not control.
Harold Jarche

4. Why belonging at work counts more
than inclusion or diversity
Diversity is a fact (the numbers are what they are),
inclusion is a choice (you decide whether to include
someone or not), but belonging is a feeling that can be
enforced by a culture that you can purposefully create.
The best thought-out diversity and inclusion strategies
will go so much further in cultures where people feel
they belong because when we’re seen and valued for
who we really are — our own unique and authentic
selves — we thrive, and so do the people around us.

5. There is a critical relationship between
diversity, inclusion, belonging and
psychological safety
Leaders who care about diversity must care
about psychological safety, just as those who
care about psychological safety must also care
about diversity, inclusion, and belonging.

8. Emotional rescue: Songs for our times
As countries all around the world enter the most restrictive peacetime
measures they may have experienced, people everywhere will experience a range
of moods and emotions that will impact on their lives. Such emotional swings and
changes are not to be discounted lightly; they will shape how countries,
communities and citizens respond to the requirements of the situation we
collectively face. It is important that we understand them, see the collective
pattern and ascertain where we are individually and collectively in order to
determine appropriate responses.
We foresee that after the initial burst of energy associated with the
introduction of tough new measures, we may enter a period of despondency and
disillusionment as the reality of the situation takes hold before we begin to emerge
into a new world. We need to be conscious of how our moods change: this will help
us as we navigate through uncharted territory together in an epic struggle that has
profound implications for us all. We’ve characterised three changes of mood
through song titles that can help us to appreciate what is happening to us and
millions of others at this time: No regrets, Stuck in the Middle and I can see clearly
now.

9. Facilitation and facilitative leadership is a
capability that every leader should invest in
Facilitation, or facilitative leadership is the dynamic
and effective ability to move a process along in the most
inclusive, focused, energised and alive way possible.
Facilitation [is] a way of being that offers safe space,
creates a container for exploration, makes way for
emergence, enables collaboration and co-creation, builds
a culture of inclusion, and helps to align discrete actions
with and towards a larger purpose. I believe it’s as
necessary a leadership skill today as planning, organising,
and controlling was fifty or seventy years ago.

10. We need to move from “parent-child”
to “adult-adult” relationships at work
This shift from parenthood to partnership in work is
relevant to us all.
It won’t be easy – our parent and child ways of being
are so ingrained in us, learned habits from school and
work…
When we have a truly adult-adult culture, it liberates
each individual’s full intelligence and creativity, creating
workplaces that are nourishing rather than depleting.

11. In delivering change, actions
matter more than words
New language explains new ways of
working. The ways of working give meaning to
the words and are the most powerful symbol of
the changes. If you want to explain your new
language and develop a consistent meaning for
your people, match the words with consistent
and visible practice.

14. To take ownership of a new strategy, teams
need more than information or inspiration —
they need a specific, personalised license to act
The real work of strategy execution lies in teams, not in
the leaders. And that no organisation can afford a single
day in which employees do not have a working
hypothesis about where they contribute most. It is easy
to default into cascade mode — passing on information,
and declaring priorities, insights, and expectations — and
miss the opportunity to build the commitment and
ownership the organisation and the strategy require.

17. How to make organisational/system
transformation happen
You have to attract, not try to overpower. Change
can’t be a corporate mandate. People have to want to
join in. There has to be an element of fun and joy to it all.
While managers often plan initiatives to be linear,
hierarchical, and based on persuasion, initiatives actually
succeed by growing through informal networks, which are
non-linear. This allows them to start slowly, but then scale
very quickly [by giving power to] advocates to share their
excitement with others, who can then bring in others still.

18. Inclusive leadership is a critical
competence in a time of crisis
Now is a time for leaders to think about what
type of leader they need to be for all of their
workers, especially the most vulnerable and
marginalised.
As we move from rapid response to short- to long-
term recovery, community, connection, and allyship
— including deep awareness about how implicit
bias shows up in decision making — will become
even more important critical leadership
competencies.

19. The mutual aid movement is helping
to create a different future
Many pathways toward a better world are being laid bare by
the altruistic mutual aid efforts arising in cities around the globe.
These locally designed and collaboratively built acts of
solidarity—which view the vulnerable as participants in their
survival rather than passive consumers of assistance—inform a
model of community resilience and collective empowerment with
implications far beyond their immediate impact.
The coronavirus pandemic has shaken the globe, and it is
likely that things will never return to the way they once were.
While we fight to mitigate the damage the crisis has wrought, we
should learn lessons from the mutual solidarity and community
resilience that it has unveiled. It will ensure the world that comes
after the crisis is a better one for all.

21. Challenges in taking the learning from the
Covid 19 response to the next stage in the
health and care system
The gratifying psychology of feeling necessary, and even
heroic, in addressing the day-to-day challenges…. implicitly
devalues the work of creating a standard system that can be
replicated. Frontline clinicians have been shown to prefer
firefighting and workarounds over taking time out to
implement process improvements. It takes creativity to design,
and discipline to implement, management systems. This is the
challenge that today’s health care systems are facing.

22. It’s time to rethink extroversion vs.
introversion
It’s often said that extroverts get their energy from
people, while introverts are energised by solitude. The data
show that’s a myth. In a pair of studies, people rated their
energy hourly or weekly. Extroverts felt more energised when
they were being talkative and outgoing - but introverts did,
too. Then, in an experiment, people were randomly assigned
to act like extroverts or introverts in a group discussion. Acting
extroverted energised even the introverts.
Being introverted has nothing to do with liking alone time. It
turns out that the desire for solitude comes from a different
trait altogether: independence.

24. Your virtual meetings need a Yoda
Candour is difficult even for co-located
teams, but it’s the number one gauge of
team productivity. To keep people
engaged during virtual meetings, appoint
a “Yoda.” Like the wise Jedi master in Star
Wars, the Yoda keeps team members in
line and makes sure everyone stays active
and on topic. The Yoda keeps honesty
from boiling over into disrespect by being
courageous and calling out any
inappropriate behaviours. At critical
points during the meeting, the leader
should turn to the Yoda and ask, “So,
what’s going on here that nobody’s
talking about?” This allows the Yoda to
express the candour of the group and
encourage risk-taking.
