Rachael Jones – CEO, Syntax, a Redesign Health Company: Stakeholder Messaging and Radical Accountability

This week Rachael Jones shares how her organization is turning stakeholders into teammates and making value-based care work for everyone involved. Listen in as Laura and Rachael discuss issues that cause friction around patient care, how Rachael navigated being an outsider and bringing a team together after a merger, the clarifying questions that matter most.

Here are a few things you’ll learn during this conversation:

• Why Rachael uses the mantra “Clarify role. Clarify goal.”
• The Importance of the Three C’s – Communication, Consensus Building, and Collaboration
• Why Radical Accountability is valuable in emerging leaders
• How to shift the energy of your team
• Strategies for holding conversations with an underperformer

During the 24-Hour Influence Challenge, Rachael encourages you to ask yourself three questions: What’s your win? What’s important now? What’s one thing you could do to move forward?

These questions are based on the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown: http://bit.ly/3i7XYjh
