  15. Lessons Learned Need to get technical and adaptive work right • Centralized measurement • Local ownership

  16. Lessons Learned • Adaptive lessons • Commit that harm is untenable; make harm visible • What does this look like in your health care setting? • Ohana • How will you share what you learn with other teams in the collaborative? • Local modification of execution • How will you adapt implementation in light of your organizational culture?

  17. Lessons Learned • Technical lessons • Link culture and specific outcomes • How will you link culture scores and clinical results? • Data quality control • Does your project team include and respect expertise of technical and adaptive experts ? (Infection control, education, QI, organizational development etc?)

  18. Leading Change • Technical and Adaptive Work • One of most common leadership mistakes is expecting technical solutions to solve adaptive challenges…. Ron Heifetz “Leadership without Easy Answers” 21
