Episode 169: Holistic Leadership: A Model in Post-Pandemic Recovery featuring Dr. Michael Bleich

In this episode, we talk with our special guest Dr. Michael Bleich about his Holistic Leadership Model and the alignment with Polarity IntelligenceTM.

Michael is a Wisconsin native who has held clinical, consultative, service, academic, and association leadership positions. He has diploma, BSN, MPH, and PhD degrees from Midwestern schools and completed fellowships with the Robert Wood Johnson Executive Nurse Fellows Program, the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and the WK Foundation.

Michael is not a stranger to Healthcare’s MissingLogic Podcast! He was our guest on Episode 140 when we determined at the end of the interview we needed to have him back on the show to do a deeper dive on Holistic Leadership.

Michael shares the four domains of Holistic Leadership and why it’s essential in healthcare leadership today. We also talk about his perspective on leadership and management and why we need both in healthcare.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

06:44 - The difference between leadership and management and why we need both

09:32 - About the definition of leadership

11:37 - The definition of management

15:15 - About Polarity IntelligenceTM

17:01 - The first domain of Holistic Leadership, Self-awareness and values clarification

23:45 - About the definition of “be relational” in the second domain of Holistic Leadership

34:12 - About “Multidimensional problem-solving” in the third domain of Holistic Leadership

44:28 - How leaders can strengthen their skills in the “Other-Orientation” in the fourth domain

We could tell you this episode will give you a new perspective on holistic leadership, but we won't, we'll let you discover that for yourself. Start listening here now or go here to watch on the MissingLogic LLC YouTube channel.
