I believe this is one area Davit is very effective in conveying to its teammates. Davit’s mission is “To be the Provider. Partner and Employer of Choice. ” Everywhere I have visited within the Village I have seen this mission be the corner stone of what Davit is all about. The teammates really take pride in what they do. They understand that patient outcomes are very important yet management does not forget the importance of professional development, teammate Incentive programs and work environment, all related to being the Employer of Choice.
This information has been backed up by organizations like Training Magazine’s “Top 125” which Davit ranked #1 for national health care service provider for its employee training programs. One thing that fits for me in is the statement in the book that states, “If an action we’re are considering doesn’t support our mission, either directly or indirectly, we don’t do It. ” This Is something I plan to live by and really make sure the decisions I make are the Davit way and they fit within our mission and core values.

This Is one area where I think I can really be an effective leader within Davit. 1 OFF started working as a technical on ten moor Ana 010 so Tort auto one Ana anal years before advancing to an FAA.
Even though I have only been with Davit a short amount f time it has allowed me to understand what a technician or nurse goes through working on the floor. I by no means have all the answers and still consider myself a new tech but it has given me a foundation to grow on. I have seen managers outside of Davit and within Davit implement change without first discussing the change with the entire team and I believe that is what this section is all about. Getting you team involved in the decision making process.
I think a great example how this process works is when other staff members get involved in all aspects of patient care. For example when our Anemia Manager, asks the clinicians what might have caused a patients Homoerotic to drop; or when our FAA asks us how we want to adjust our patient schedule and then Running head: The Leadership Secrets 4 chips in during turnover to make the day a little easier; and when our nurses ask the Techs how their day is going and willingly lend a hand with patient care. These are Just some of the examples of how we listen to each other as a team.
