@iamahawkins @loukydawg @SC_Pharmacist @AACPharmacy What about testing it first at the smaller interim meeting? Also some work to improve the functionality of the app, though the thought of hundreds of people all in a room looking at their phones does make me ill. Could definitely save $ on the production value of the plenaries.

@loukydawg @SC_Pharmacist @AACPharmacy We need 🕰️ for creative thinking & write up. They should push back the deadline for proposals. Bc there will surely be less slides for committee to review. So very curious how they’ll handle timeline changes with this abrupt, paradigm shift. I’m excited for it #GrowthMindset

The call for #PharmEd25 proposals has gone out and there’s some notable changes: 🚫 No projection equipment for many/most sessions 📆 Aligned schedules w/ longer breaks ☑️ New rubric for submissions Any thoughts - good or bad? @AACPharmacy

Today is #WorldOzoneDay under the theme “Advancing climate action”. The @UN Montreal Protocol has united the world to phase out ozone-depleting substances, putting the ozone layer on the path to recovery & protecting all life on Earth.

Senior leadership teams are force multipliers: effectiveness radiates from the top team throughout an organisation. Yet in a study by @CCLdotORG, two-thirds of the senior executives felt their top team was ineffective & only 20% felt that their team was high performing. Research by @BainandCompany identified five behaviour traits that the most effective top teams have in common. These traits are collective - they characterise the behaviours of the team as a whole, not those of its individual members: 1) Direction: the team collectively sets purpose, vision & strategy 2) Discipline: everyone understands the strategies, objectives & deliverables of their peers so they can work together interdependently 3) Drive: the team prepares carefully, debates constructively & is industrious & resilient over the long term 4) Dynamism: they treat change as constant & positive 5) Collaboration: the team creates the psychological safety needed to give and take feedback, listen actively, brainstorm, solve problems & hold themselves accountable: hbr.org/2024/09/teamwo….

Taking a new look at Hba1c! Health Behaviours Are 1mproved by Collaboration.. @tmpbrock calling for increasing the sweetness of #teamwork 🍭 @PCDSAus’s Conference 2024 #Collaboration #teamwork #cpc4health #bettertogether #multidisciplinaryteam

“Sharing by default” is an emerging @AuDigitalHealth philosophy that could also improve the #health professions #education sector. Shall we start by tagging & sharing our single discipline teaching videos within @UniMelbMDHS? I bet there is such gold there! #BetterTogether

Interprofessional collaboration should be standard practice to ensure high quality health services, says a new FIP policy statement published today. Recommendations to governments, academia & #pharmacists are set out in the policy, accessible here 👉fip.org/file/6041

Expanding the pool of #collaboration researchers by welcoming a fantastic new addition - @David_Steeb! If the 1st presentation to some of his fellow @MonashPharm & @UniMelbMDHS #health #education PhD students is a predictor - there’s some great work ahead. #WatchThisSpace

Fireside chat with @WalterEppich - Chyonne Kreltszheim, @marinambgg, & Jonas Nordquist discuss how #spaces, #people, & #talk can better support collaborative teaching teams. We can & we must facilitate change! #BetterTogetther

Top tip -> a skilled researcher who references both @Freakonomics and @GreysABC in the first minute of their keynote is a winner! Can’t wait to learn more from @marinambgg of @BusEcoNews about gendered emotions & social movements!

Chyonne Kreltszheim sees NOT being naturally #collaborative as a gift, because she’s had to study & practice it purposefully. Suspect many health professionals may feel similarly. How can we learn this #superpower? #BetterTogether

Working in universities is wacky. So for @SocSciWeek we have @jillblackmore1 talking about the "Stupidity Paradox of Working in Universities" with us on The Peer Revue. It's an improv show where you'll laugh and learn! socialsciencesweek.org.au/event/the-stup…

Great opening session of the @CPC4health applying design thinking to teamwork symposium @UniMelbMDHS. #collaboration #bettertogether

What happens when the AV fails & you can’t print handouts for your A.I. workshop? You think, “that’s what teachers deal with every day,” & you find a way! Well done, @KayleyLyons, @MakVivienne, & Vivian Romero for showing that #teamwork makes the dream work! #BetterTogether

Starting out with the @BBCNews’ greeting of “fab and glam, darling!” Dr Jonas Nordquist of the @karolinskainst challenges us to consider how we design spaces that better facilitate #collaboration in #health & #education.

It’s EduYak day! That means #health professions #educators are gathering to talk about things that matter in our #community. Today’s topic is tough but important -> reframing conflict from unproductive to productive tension. We are respectfully naming our 🐘🐘🐘#BetterTogether

Long term exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution is linked to a higher risk of infertility in men, whereas road traffic noise is linked to a higher risk of infertility in women over 35, finds this study bmj.com/content/386/bm…

Really thought-provoking keynote by mid-career #FIP2024 Distinguished Pharmaceutical Education Award winner @lerisruq about the complexity of using race as a proxy for health conditions #wholepersoncare #socialdeterminantsofhealth

Come see what the @FIP_AcPS Scholarship in Pharmacy Education Workgroup has been up to! @khbohan and I are waiting to talk to you at poster APS-090. #FIP2024

How big was my @CPC4health smile when the messages of the Minister of Health of South Africa & Research Lead at Ministry of Health for New Zealand were #collaboration #forward? #Teamwork is a #power #skill for better health care! #FIP2024 😀😍😃
