The Wrap - Well-being at Michigan Medicine

·21 min·1 clip

Elizabeth Harry says belonging is one of Michigan Medicine’s four strategic priorities.

1. The Wrap by Michigan Medicine Headlines centers on the launch of the new Wellbeing at Michigan Medicine podcast. 2. Jeremy Fowles and Dan Ellman host the segment, and Elizabeth Harry appears as Michigan Medicine’s Chief Wellbeing Officer. 3. The episode asks what the Wellbeing at Michigan Medicine podcast is for and what it should achieve across Michigan Medicine. 4. Harry says one aim is better communication about efforts to improve wellbeing and work experience at Michigan Medicine. 5. Harry says the podcast is also meant to share “unheard stories” from leaders and highlight what they do on a more personal level. 6. Harry says the third goal is to bring the Michigan Medicine community together instead of creating an “us them” split. 7. Harry says the first guests were the triad team: Julie Aishik, Charlie Royland, and Dr. Paul Lee. 8. Harry says the triad matters because it leads operational initiatives on the clinical side and actively advocates for wellbeing. 9. Harry says Dr. Andrew Rosenberg, Dr. Amy Cohn, and Dr. Lou Edgy were also included because each brings a different lens on efficiency, transformation, and learner support. 10. The Julie Ishak clip focuses on belonging, burnout, and the idea that people should feel “cared about” at work. 11. Harry says belonging is one of Michigan Medicine’s four strategically prioritized areas. 12. Harry introduces “Sonder” and uses it to describe how every person has a complex life beyond work. 13. Harry says the belonging team is working from the book Belonging by Jeffrey Cohen and its idea of situational crafting. 14. Harry says Michigan Medicine should be an example of healthy disagreement, kindness, and intellectual respect. 15. The Charlie Royland clip describes health care as an industry “for people by people” and ties leadership to team wellbeing. 16. Harry says rounding produces stories about strong local teams, but it also surfaces operational problems and workarounds that should be simplified. 17. The Paul Lee clip connects the phrase “the team, the team, the team” to reducing cognitive load and administrative burden. 18. Harry says institutional mandatories were reduced by 40% in total time last year, and she points to mGrow as a way to remove waste. 19. The tone is conversational and interview-driven, with short clips, direct follow-up questions, and a lightning round on fall, holiday music, Hawaii, and pumpkin pie. 20. People interested in Michigan Medicine leadership, wellbeing, and operations will get the most out of it, while listeners wanting a purely clinical or research episode may skip it.
