HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY
COACHING AND TRAINING SERVICES

According to a recent Hospital Survey on Patient Safety Culture, 65% of respondents were afraid to ask questions when something did not seem right.

And despite increased training on the importance of patient safety, speaking up is at an all-time low. According to a survey by the Healthcare Compliance Association, 40 percent of employees in the life sciences feared retaliation if they reported unethical behavior or safety concerns.

Employees across healthcare sectors often neglect to speak up, despite knowing its importance, because they fear that nothing will change, they lack psychological safety and don’t trust more senior staff, and because of excessive discomfort during high-stakes communication.

It’s vital for organizations to provide ongoing training for physicians, nurses, and other allied healthcare and life sciences staff to speak up for patient safety and for their own mental health and well-being.

“Through our training, I learned a lot about how to use my voice in uncomfortable situations with doctors and patients and to keep my feedback specific, timely, behavior-oriented, and the right kind of personal. This was one of the best trainings I’ve ever attended, and the role-play exercises were particularly helpful.”

At Step into Your Moxie, we recognize that failing to speak up is rarely about not knowing what to say.  

That’s why we take a different and highly effective approach.

All of our coaching and training programs are trauma-sensitive, foster emotional intelligence, and incorporate somatic practices to help participants recognize and navigate their emotions and sensations more effectively. We also integrate role-play activities, allowing individuals to develop and fine-tune their communication skills in difficult situations.

The administrators, leaders, professionals, and front-line staff we work with receive comprehensive communication and leadership training, equipping them with not just the knowledge of what to do but also the mindset, skills, and workplace culture to excel.

Through our coaching, training, and messaging services, we can support your organization to:

“Alexia spoke at our conference with great effect! She was incredibly easy to work with from planning through execution, and she skillfully addressed what I thought was a difficult training topic in our program. But the dynamic content and expert presentation skills she brought to the 200+ person audience were very well received and inspiring. Thank you, Alexia!”
