Why this topic?
• Knowledge Workers – Most of you
• Peter Drucker – “The founder of modern management”
• Thomas Davenport (Competing on Analytics, Thinking for a Living) defined :
“Knowledge workers have a high degree of expertise, education or experience, and the primary purpose of their jobs involve the creation, distribution, or application of knowledge.”
• The foundational elements of knowledge in todays digital healthcare environment are literacy in the realms of data and analytics.
• To be an effective knowledge worker – you must apply the insights obtained from the analysis of the data to understand whatever you are looking at or trying to improve – and this requires literacy in Leadership – change management, outcomes improvement. This is the hardest and most important realm.
• Knowledge workers also need to “own” helping the organization to become more data and insight driven, and actually use the insights to improve outcomes.

![Page 40: Leading Change - Through Literacy and Excellence in Data, Analytics, and Leadership.montana.himsschapter.org/sites/himsschapter/files... · 2019-05-15 · Adaptive Leadership •Theory](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042409/5f252dd270e3023274276323/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Organizational Change Management
• Organizational Change Management (OCM) "describes any set of best practices for introducing and guiding specific, defined changes in the current environment.“
• Gartner has identified seven OCM best practices:• Define the change
• Build executive support
• Communicate to the organization
• Develop the plan
• Execute the plan
• Persist through the challenges
• Reinforce adoption
![Page 41: Leading Change - Through Literacy and Excellence in Data, Analytics, and Leadership.montana.himsschapter.org/sites/himsschapter/files... · 2019-05-15 · Adaptive Leadership •Theory](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042409/5f252dd270e3023274276323/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
ESCAPE Model for Change Leadership
• Gartner’s ESCAPE model is person centric.
• Helps individuals understand the impact of changes on themselves and others, see their role in the future vision, embrace change opportunities rather than view changes as a threat, and feel a sense of ownership and responsibility for the change success.
• The goal in a change culture is to "integrate this thinking and these practices into the culture through daily activities, language and interactions", so that change is seen as something normal and acceptable, rather than something that is negative and "done to them".
![Page 42: Leading Change - Through Literacy and Excellence in Data, Analytics, and Leadership.montana.himsschapter.org/sites/himsschapter/files... · 2019-05-15 · Adaptive Leadership •Theory](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042409/5f252dd270e3023274276323/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
ESCAPE – Inspire Phase
• Envision• Individuals need to be Inspired to change by helping them Envision the
change and imagine what life will be like after the change.
• Share • The vision needs to be Shared repeatedly and often
• Compose• The new vision needs to be succinctly Composed and then communicated
![Page 43: Leading Change - Through Literacy and Excellence in Data, Analytics, and Leadership.montana.himsschapter.org/sites/himsschapter/files... · 2019-05-15 · Adaptive Leadership •Theory](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042409/5f252dd270e3023274276323/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
ESCAPE – Engage Phase
• Attract• Early adopters need to be Attracted (recruited)
• “Think big, start small (early adopters), move quickly” - Mayo
• Permit• A growth mindset needs to be Permitted, and opportunities for
experimentation and new behaviors Permitted
• Enable• Building, supporting and training for new structures, processes and thinking
must be Enabled

Adaptive Leadership
• Theory developed by Ron Heifetz, Alexander Grashow and Marty Linsky
• Adaptive leadership defined: adaptive leadership is a practice of mobilizing people to tackle tough challenges and thrive.
• The practice of leadership, like the practice of Medicine, involves two core processes: diagnosis first and then action.
• The process of diagnosis and action begins with data collection and problem identification (the what), moves through an interpretive stage (the why) and on to the potential approaches to action as a series of interventions. (The what next).
• Typically, the problem-solving process is iterative, moving back and forth among data collection, interpretation, and action.

Adaptive Leadership
• In most organizations, people feel pressure to solve problems quickly, to move to action. So they minimize time spent in diagnosis, collecting data, exploring multiple possible interpretations of the situation and alternative potential interventions.
• To diagnose a system or yourself while in the midst of action requires the ability to achieve some distance from those on-the-ground events. The metaphor of "getting on the balcony" above the "dance floor" to depict what it means to gain the distanced perspective you need to see what is really happening.
• Mobilizing people to meet their immediate adaptive challenges lies at the heart of leadership in the short-term.

The productive zone of disequilibrium (PZD)
• To practice adaptive leadership, you have to help people navigate through a period of disturbance and sift through what is essential what is expendable, and allow them to experiment with solutions to the adaptive challenges at hand. This creates disequilibriumthat can catalyze everything from conflict, frustration, and panic to confusion, disorientation, and fear of losing something dear.
• Your goal should be to keep the temperature within what we call the productive zone of disequilibrium (PZD): enough heat generated by your intervention to gain attention, engagement, and forward motion, but not so much that the organization explodes.

Observe, Interpret, Intervene
• Adaptive leadership is an iterative process involving three key activities: • observing events and patterns around you
• interpreting what you are observing (developing multiple hypotheses about what is really going on)
• designing interventions based on the observations and interpretations to address the adaptive challenge you have identified

Recommendations
• Don’t jump to solutions too quickly
• Don’t give people what they want, give them what they need (understand the problem)
• Don’t treat adaptive problems with technical solutions
• Be an advocate for data and analytics – “What does the data tell us?” • Don’t be a HiPPO (if you practice using data and analytics consistently you
will be more likely to go from being the LoPPO to a HiPPO
