In a circle of trust, people allow silence to fall so that folks can hear what's just been said. A physician says he works in a health care system that has him on the edge of violating his hypocratic oath two or three times a week. He then gathers some trusted friends and they petitioned the administration successfully to create a penalty free zone for reporting medical errors.
Have you ever had someone come to you with a dilemma, but when you start to share your advice, they resist your every suggestion? The relationship gets more strained. You leave feeling frustrated, but when you open up you immediately get advice and feel more alone and more confused than you were before. For this episode, I have invited one of my heroes, Parker J. Palmer, to share a story or two, some of the things he has learned over decades and some actionable advice. By the end of this episode, you will be better able to help people unravel their confusion and find the right way forward.
