Just listened to this. Excellent. Thank you Doctors Training... credit to both the interviewers and the guest (Dr Baverstock). I found the advice regarding looking at "sweaty palm"conversation s as opportunities for strengthening connections and the reframing from "you did" to "I felt" valuable.

How should I deal with a rude colleague?
Confronting poor behaviour from someone you work with can seem difficult but there are ways to respond, @abirimmer.bsky.social hears

Lovely to catch up with @doctorstraining.bsky.social for their first podcast!
We talk about brave conversations - can we have them in a way that builds connection?
Can we change the intention behind the conversation? What is our aim in having them?

Louder for those at the back - if we don’t prioritise looking after all colleagues who work in the NHS then we won’t be able to recover the NHS no matter how shiny the new mandate.

There's so much desperate need for hope in the NHS.
I just don't believe this is going to come from politicians or execs.
Hope's going to emerge out of our relationships & networks; from meaningful dialogue & sharing our experiences & being heard; from doing a decent job for patients where we can.

"Team rituals" are regular activities/practices, eg huddles, team lunches, check-ins, celebrations. New research shows teams with more rituals have more engagement, psychological safety, knowledge & job satisfaction, leading to higher productivity/performance: lnkd.in/eXNNvP-G Art: lnkd.in/e_XmBeg9

It's easy to get caught up in the stress of everyday life.
The Christmas break has helped me reconnect with balance.
I focused on time with family and friends, engaging in hobbies and reminding myself that making time for these things is key to our mental fitness & the ability to do our jobs well.

Let's talk differential attainment.
Evidence shows that doctors from ethnic minority backgrounds, international medical graduates & those with disabilities or long-term conditions have disproportionally worse outcomes from training compared to their peers.
Now is the time to address this.
