When a New Initiative Is Coming—And You Know it’s Going To Make Things Worse - Ep. 64
from The Inspired Healthcare Leader | Healthcare Leadership, Work-Life Balance, Managing Change · host Mara Ergas-Zabari RN, PhD - Healthcare Leader, Consultant, & Researcher
Ever been in a meeting where a new initiative is announced—and while everyone else is nodding, you can already see how it’s going to make things worse for your area? More friction. More workarounds. More strain on your team. And yet… saying something feels risky. For frontline healthcare leaders, these moments aren’t just about operations decisions—they’re about reputation, relationships, and how you’re perceived. In this episode, I unpack why it’s so hard to speak up—and more importantly, how to do it in a way that protects your credibility while actually influencing the outcome. If you’ve ever felt stuck between staying quiet or being seen as difficult, this will give you a practical, research-backed way to navigate that moment with confidence.
