Listen "Curious Now #12: The Greatest Obstacle to Effective Learning Conversations"
Episode Synopsis
In decades of faculty and clinician training at the Center for Medical Simulation, we’ve identified one element of our approach to Good Judgment learning conversations that people have the most difficulty with. This obstacle can take what should be an insightful, curious inquiry and leave it with a defensive or confused learner. Similar effects happen in negotiations at point of care and feedback conversations. The greatest obstacle is this: clearly and transparently sharing what you think about the situation. There are many reasons why we struggle with this, from thinking that if we share what we believe, it will be too harsh or too threatening for the other person, to believing that sharing our point of view will be used against us and that it would be safer to try to unilaterally steer the discussion without it. In this week’s workout, you’ll be challenged to try sharing your underlying point of view in a situation where that feels vulnerable to you.
