1. We may have heard or even used the term yourself, “this is who I am.” What is being shared with statements like that? When we meet people in the hospital who are very sick or colleagues who are very stressed by what they are dealing with at home; is this really the person they are? What about you if your didn’t sleep the night before or you have just been blamed by a patient you are trying to help? Can strong personalities be a real help for the team? Just some starting ideas to get the conversation rolling.
