You've got direct care workers, middle management, upper management, they're a little bit more corporate.
podcast-host
in their structure of levels and hierarchy, but schools are very different.
podcast-host
So can you tell us a little bit about how that might be structured and and how that role in the middle might look a little different?
podcast-host
I appreciate that clarification because I I think anyone listening is likely hopefully reflecting on their own organizational structure, considering where they are within the organizational structure.
podcast-host
Thinking about who is in the middle, right?
podcast-host
Who is in this position of potential influence and power.
podcast-host
PS if it's not you, please forward this episode so we can get some good effective change happening happening out there.
podcast-host
But you know, everybody's organization is different.
podcast-host
All of these labels are gonna be different.
podcast-host
Um, all of these
podcast-host
Roles and job descriptions are going to be different, but the common denominator here is the ability to leverage those relationships and and be the linking pins to diffuse knowledge both up and down to to impact change.
podcast-host
The real point of today's episode is not um necessarily talking about organizational culture, but you can't really talk about the it potential impact that middle managers have without addressing organizational culture and the power to influence change within organizations.
podcast-host
So
podcast-host
Uh, as everybody probably assumes, organizational culture is related to shared sets of values, shared sets of beliefs.
podcast-host
That the comment that Shauna said earlier, this is what we do here.
podcast-host
the the standard, the status quo of your organization.
podcast-host
And in so many instances, back to what Shauna was saying at the beginning of the conversation, that status quo is not necessarily best practice.
podcast-host
And that status quo, that culture could be shifted through the power of middle management and leveraging communication.
podcast-host
To better um embrace best practices, to better embrace evidence-based practices.
podcast-host
And I'm just gonna nerd out, nerd out for like one hot second.
