Reflecting on KCS Roundtables

We recently hosted a very engaging KCS Roundtables event consisting of six breakouts on the following topics:

Huge thanks to our hosts for a great event! 

To allow for open and transparent discussion among the participants, we don’t record KCS Roundtables.

#takeaways

A great part of the KCS and Consortium community is people’s willingness to help each other. In addition to our hosts, we had many KCS v6 Practices certified people, KCS v6 Certified Trainers, and Consortium Innovators participating in the KCS Roundtables. Attendees shared their successes as well as ditches to avoid. A sampling of the takeaways from the participants: 

  • “If the Solve Loop isn’t successful, your Evolve Loop can’t be.”
  •  “Establishing a KCS Council is one of the first things we do.”
  •  “Leverage your organization’s existing measurements and align KCS to them. For example, current KPIs or cost per case.”
  • “The greatest contributor to coaching success is direct manager’s support– delivered through time created for coaching and supporting the learning process.”

Due to the tremendous feedback we received, we will be scheduling another KCS Roundtables in Fall 2023 – keep an eye out!
