Bridge Builders, welcome back to bread to lead the pie class that's built to create phenomenal. Leaders. Last week, we talked about scaling, surviving mode within organizational structure and how to know where you are today. We're talking about what you do when you get to certain levels of leadership, because here's the deal. What I've discovered over the last decade and turnaround is that the biggest threat to innovation isn't incompetence. It's actually tradition. The phrase we've always done it this way has destroyed more organizations than any competitor ever could or would. And the industries that pride themselves on tradition, they're the ones that start deteriorating at the fastest rate known to man because.
Tradition without evolution is just slow death with better branding. And today we're talking about leading with gumption, having the courage to be different, daring to challenge what everyone else accepts, not for the sake of being disruptive, but for the sake of building something that actually works, something that doesn't just survive, but thrives. Because as we know, leadership is the software, systems are the hardware, And innovation is what happens when you refuse to let tradition write your future.
Let's go, Bridge Builders.
think is very important as we begin to digest the information that we're going to talk about this episode and moving forward in the season. I just have a couple of things I'm just excited about. Our operational system is officially going to be in five facilities starting the quarter. There's a lot of legacy technologies and systems that are slowly beginning to start moving out of the space because innovation is needed. And in this space and time, we're dealing with this split leadership, the pool of leaders or leadership. Let's call it the leadership hustle, for lack of better words, where you have leaders who want to drive innovation, but they don't have signability. You have certain leaders that do have signing ability and they're just trying to keep it as smooth and easy to get to retirement.
How does tradition impact innovation in organizations?
So you have like this thing and then there's a bunch of people in between. And one of the biggest concepts that we're bringing to light this year is operational blindness, because I You know, after talking with so many leaders, being in hospitals, talking with executives, I'm beginning to realize that everybody kind of understands the metrics or the reasons why they're underperforming. They just don't have the full solution. And then the second thing is when it comes to leadership and really pushing something through, a lot of leaders lack the ability of follow through, meaning I start this initiative to create change and I drive that change regardless of what happens. And so we're dealing with this space.
And honestly, I just believe that we actually don't lack quality leaders. We don't lack quality clinicians. What we're struggling is actually putting ourselves in the best position possible to win just because of these old traditional isms that don't mean anything. You know, we have these silos of like clicks within the organizational structure of health care. And some of you may see it in your own businesses in different industries. But in my business, my my industry currently health care, there's a lot of silos of departments that kind of work against each other, but not because they want to. But because the systems are so disenfranchised, it causes like this chasm of confusion while everybody's, you know, feel like they're doing the right thing.
It's kind of like your own world and you do your part and everybody else has to do theirs or else. And it doesn't really work as we're talking about moving forward with innovation in this space. We're dealing with, you know, a huge shortage when it comes to staffing all across the board in health care. So our organizations have to get stronger, smarter, faster. And I'm excited to announce that our system is going into facilities. We've released the operational system in a couple of hospitals last year, and our technology is now following those facilities.
