It was a lovely surprise this morning. I was informed that my article was featured in yesterday’s newsletter and published on Weshare
We've created a safe space to reflect
12 Sep 2023
Service Delivery Manager, Adeshola Akanji, encourages colleagues to reflect on their experiences at work through dedicated forums like Schwartz rounds.
What is a Schwartz round and what’s involved?
Schwartz rounds were started by a healthcare lawyer called Kenn Schwartz, who died of lung cancer in 1995. Schwartz rounds create a space for colleagues working within healthcare to reflect on the emotional and social aspects of their job.
What is your motivation to attend?
I am passionate about supporting staff members to gain insight through reflection on the experience of others and helping them to develop trust and be able to share their experience as well, so that we can have a collective learning experience from the Schwartz round.
What do you get out of the meetings, and would you recommend attending?
I was a panel member in a Schwartz round in March 2023, the topic was, “Lean on me”. This enabled me to share my experience with others and learn from the experience of the other panel members and the audience. I continue to recommend that my colleagues attend future meetings.
What is your advice to colleagues thinking about going?
A Schwartz round is an exceptional platform to reflect together over individual or shared experiences, learn from each other and take back learnings into their day to day lives. I will encourage colleagues to attend future Schwartz rounds either as a panel member or part of the audience.
Why do you come to work? Come along to the next Schwartz round (Friday 22 September) and share your experience
