🎙️ Think Factory Podcast | The Power of Shared Governance in Healthcare

In this compelling episode of the Think Factory Podcast, hosted by Susan Schleck Kleiner, we’re joined by Dr. Bob Hess—Founder & CEO of the Forum for Shared Governance—for a powerful conversation on one of the most critical leadership topics in healthcare today: shared governance.

Dr. Hess breaks down what shared governance really means beyond the buzzwords—explaining how it gives bedside nurses and frontline teams a genuine voice in clinical practice, operational decisions, and the resources that shape patient care. Drawing on decades of research, he also shares the story behind the Index of Professional Nursing Governance, the first validated tool to measure how decision-making authority and accountability truly function inside healthcare organizations.

Throughout the episode, we explore:
✅ How authentic shared governance drives nurse retention and job satisfaction
✅ The link between collaborative decision-making and improved patient outcomes
✅ The risks of treating governance as a marketing slogan rather than a lived reality
✅ The global evolution of Dr. Hess’s accreditation model
✅ How AI-powered dashboards are transforming governance insights in real time

Equally important, Dr. Hess highlights the human side of leadership—underscoring the roles of trust, transparency, and leadership commitment in building cultures where people feel empowered to lead and contribute.

Whether you’re a healthcare executive, clinician, or organizational leader, this episode offers actionable insights into how shared governance can elevate both culture and performance.

Unifying Automation: Eliminating “Islands” to Build Scalable, Error-Free Workflows

In the latest episode of the Think Factory Podcast, we’re joined by Marc Raad, President, and Stan Carmichael, Director of Special Projects at Significans Automation, for a deep dive into how organizations can rethink and redesign automation across print, packaging, agency, and brand operations.

Marc and Stan discuss a common challenge they see across industries: disconnected “islands of automation.” While many companies have invested in tools and software, those systems often don’t communicate effectively. Drawing on decades of combined experience in software and manufacturing, they explain how true transformation comes from integration—connecting disparate systems to enable seamless data flow, reduce manual touchpoints, and eliminate costly errors.

The conversation also explores how organizations move from fragmented processes to fully mapped, future-state automation strategies. From diagnosing bottlenecks and inefficiencies to building phased, ROI-driven transformation roadmaps, Significans takes a practical, hands-on approach to improving productivity and scalability. The episode also touches on the evolving role of AI in automation, highlighting where it adds value today, where its limitations remain, and how it best serves as a supporting tool within broader digital transformation efforts.

In the latest episode of the Think Factory podcast, we sit down with Al Kennickell, President of The Kennickell Group, for a compelling conversation on leadership, risk, and longevity in a multi‑generational family business.

- Creating accountability at every level
- Protecting time for strategic thinking
