Simulation centers spend thousands on technology and equipment, but sometimes overlook the simplest operational problems.
What is one small change your simulation center made that had a big impact? #SimOps
Simulation operations is one of those jobs where everything can be perfectly planned at 7:30 AM and completely off the rails by 8:05.
What's the craziest thing you've had to improvise during a simulation? #SimOps
Leadership isn't about having all the answers.
Sometimes the smartest thing you can say is, 'I don't know. What do you think?'
You might discover your team already has the solution. #Leadership
Before starting another week, ask yourself:
What am I doing that someone else on my team could be learning to do?
Delegation isn't dumping work. It's developing people.
Here's a quick exercise: Ask your team to identify one task they do every week that adds little or no value.
Then figure out why they're still doing it.
You might be surprised by what you find.
A busy team isn't necessarily a productive team.
Sometimes we're just really good at staying busy.
The better question is: What did we actually accomplish today? #Operations
I’ve officially taken my healthcare simulation ramblings over to TikTok!
Think of it as SIM ADVICE… minus the 5¢ consultation fee.
If you’re on TikTok, come hang out, follow along, and join the conversation!

Your strategic plan shouldn’t be collecting dust in a folder somewhere. Your strategic plan should evolve alongside your organization.
#Strategicplanning isn’t an event. It’s an ongoing process.

Have a future facing organizational chart on hand so that leadership know what your plan is for the next 2 to 3 years trust me it will save a ton of headache later. #Simulation #leadership #strategy #sim tiktok.com/t/ZTyvjPN7c/
The longer I'm in #leadership, the more I realize that some of the most expensive mistakes organizations make have absolutely nothing to do with money. They have everything to do with communication, ego, and an unwillingness to change.
What if the biggest problem in #healthcare #simulation is the name itself? #TikTok tiktok.com/t/ZPLhftedc/
Can your simulation center function without you? #TikTok tiktok.com/t/ZPLhfrBPK/

The goal shouldn’t be to build a simulation program that proves how valuable you are. Build one that proves how valuable the program is—even after you’re gone. #SimulationEducation #Leadership
Things should change. It’s ok. Check out The Simulation Operative's video! #TikTok tiktok.com/t/ZTybRpua3/ #healthcare #Simulation #operations
Documentation isn’t bureaucracy. In simulation operations, documentation is institutional memory. Procedures, vendors, room setups, maintenance, purchasing, scheduling and workflows shouldn’t live inside one person’s head. #HealthcareSimulation #SimOps
🎙Just in case you missed it, new episodes of The Simulation Operative are out!
We're talking simulation leadership, operations, lessons learned, and everything in between.
New here? Start with Episode 1! 👇

Ask yourself this: If you left your simulation center tomorrow, how much operational knowledge would leave with you? If the answer makes you uncomfortable, start documenting. #SimOps #Simulation
Being indispensable feels good—until you realize it can be an organizational weakness. Great leaders don’t make themselves essential to every process. They build systems, people and knowledge that continue without them. #Leadership #HealthcareSimulation
If your simulation program can’t function when you’re gone for two weeks, you haven’t built a strong program yet. You’ve built a program that depends on you. Those are very different things. #HealthcareSimulation #SimOps
