Today, I conducted my first workshop with #ImplantizeCompact. I had a great experience, and I am incredibly appreciative that my company offers these types of initiatives. I truly believe this experience was crucial for my understanding of the product and the entire process. I am very happy with the results I achieved. The implant adaptation was nearly perfect. The feeling I had when I got the adaptation right was pure joy! Although it's a training model, I am just a financial manager. If I can do it with no surgical expertise, any doctor can! I'm not going to lie, I made some mistakes that could have easily been avoided if I had known what red flags to look out for before beginning the #oralsurgery. This experience made me even more certain that a training model would be very helpful for first-time doctors using this technique. If something goes wrong with the model, you can analyze and plan to do it better on the patient. Order from BoneEasy, and you will receive a training model with everything you need to plan the surgery beforehand! BoneEasy, it is easy! #maxillofacial #SubperiostealImplant #customimplants #subperiosteals

Dear colleagues, day four and the fourth spiritual law of success - least effort. It's still amazing to me that most companies practice antiquated techniques to manage and lead people. This is why probably most companies remain good. In my opinion, leading people is no different than influencing our family and friends who we care about and care about us. It should be based on love, respect and appreciation, not just on results. It's amazing how a lot of leadership just focuses on results but really not that interested on how those results were attained. I hate the philosophy of results at any cost, but have had to deal with it throughout my career. The best way I know how to deal with it is - just do my best and trust the universe will take care of the rest. I love this mantra because we must always have faith that a higher power knows more than we do and it's just challenging us to become the best version of ourselves. My faith continues to grow as I experience challenges and joys on a regular basis. There's still a lot of work to do, but it has gotten a little bit easier with the daily effort on personal development. I hope you invest in yourself to get incremental gains in your ability to handle challenges and experience greater joy. Have a great Wednesday and rest your week!

𝐁𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭! 🤯 Have you ever met a person who really embodies Continuous Improvement and Lean? In a recent e-coffee with my friend Ivan Fantin, as we were discussing how to foster the prerequisites for Lean Transformation at any Company, he dropped me one of those sentences that you cannot forget: "𝐆𝐞𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐫 𝐛𝐞𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐢𝐨𝐫𝐬 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐲 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐮𝐲." This brought me some years back, as at one of my previous jobs, the mantra was "Kaizen: use your brain before your pocket." 🧠 Lean is a mindset shift that prioritizes continual improvement, respect for people, and the elimination of waste before any fancy tool or technology. Investing in the right tools can support Lean efforts; however, it's still the human element – the leaders' commitment to living Lean values – that will drive sustainable change. When executives walk the talk, the whole organization becomes more likely to embrace the Lean mindset and practices. And you, what's your experience with this? How do you prioritize Brain before Pocket in Kaizens? #creativity #innovation #management #continuousimprovement #kaizen

About compliance and commitment I am very proud of the fact that we at Siemens Healthineers are embracing a culture where regular performance check ins & exchange on mutual expectations between managers and employees are not the exception, but rather the norm. As I am preparing for the upcoming performance reviews with my direct reports, I am thinking about which topic they really should be about this time. While, obviously, they are also about targets and target achievement, I believe there can be more benefits to these conversations if we do not limit them to this sole purpose.   The ideas of Brené Brown in a recent interview with Simon Sinek in his podcast “A bit of optimism” (by the way one of my favorite podcasts) got me thinking. Although in a very different context, Brené was talking about the difference between compliance and commitment in terms of human behavior. Compliance is about sticking to the rules which someone has given to you based on rank, authority, etc. while commitment is much deeper rooted. It has much less to do with sticking to rules, but is based on shared convictions, values, and beliefs. It goes without saying that compliance acts as the base for interactions, but achieving great success as teams and as individuals is much easier if we are fully committed as opposed to just executing certain things in a compliant fashion. Thus, trying to find out for yourself as an individual or as a manager in which situations compliance or commitment is more dominant for you is an interesting exercise to get prepared for your upcoming performance check ins. Enjoy! #SiemensHealthineers

Yesterday, I saw a movie that I highly recommend. It tells the story of a man of #vision, #conviction, and #determination, Richard Montañez. He is undoubtedly a hero. However, there is another hero in this story: Roger Enrico. He was a true #leader who could look beyond prejudice and traditional standards. He trusted and empowered his people. We need people like Richard Montañez in our teams, but it is equally important to be leaders like Roger Enrico. Otherwise, all that talent will go to waste. Let's focus on leadership, empowerment, and vision to build successful teams. #leadership #empowerment #vision #trust

Dear colleagues, day three and the third spiritual law of karma. Do you really appreciate the law of cause and effect? Do you take responsibility for the choices that you make or the results that you get? This is still a challenge for me because when unexpected bad stuff happens, my immediate thought is to blame somebody else, or just feel like I'm unlucky. It's so sad that is how I have been programmed or allowed myself to be programmed. It's taken a lot of work to just be aware, and then accept that whatever is happening is due to choices that I have made in the past. We really never know what's going to happen with the choices we make, but all we can do is make the best choice in the moment. How can you do that? For me it is relatively easy, what choice is the best for the universe? And our feelings can help us because if it feels really good, then hopefully the consequences should be good. But if the consequences are not good, that's okay too, because it's a learning opportunity. How many of you have trained yourself to be aware of the choices you're making and make the choice that is best for everyone including yourself? It's sad that I don't see this enough with others, and all I can do hopefully is lead by example. I hope and pray that I am a good example. The only leadership and management I believe in is self-leadership and self-management. Everything we do and say is a reflection of who we are. Hopefully we present the real version of ourselves as much as possible. I really admire and respect folks who are themselves no matter what. I hope today you make better choices that will get you to the life you want! Happy Tuesday and have a great rest of your week!

The #AI_Revolution Is Here - Is Your Company Ready? 🤖 As we navigate the European Year of #Skills, one thing is crystal clear - #AI is rapidly transforming the labor landscape. Companies that prioritize upskilling their workforce in AI competencies will gain a massive competitive edge. Here's why: 1) AI Augments Human #Capabilities 🧠 Rather than replacing humans, AI empowers us to be more productive and innovative. By automating mundane tasks, AI frees up employees to focus on higher-value, creative work. But only if they have the skills to leverage AI effectively. 2) The #AI_Talent_Gap Is Widening 👷 Europe faces a shortage of AI-skilled professionals. The demand for roles like data scientists, AI engineers and machine learning experts is skyrocketing. Companies investing in AI upskilling today will have access to this precious talent pool. 3) AI Drives #Operational_Efficiencies 🔥 From predictive analytics to process automation, AI optimizes operations across every industry. Companies that upskill will be able to capitalize on AI to reduce costs, improve quality and accelerate time-to-market. 4) Customers Expect AI-Powered #Experiences 💫 In our digital age, customers demand hyper-personalized products and services. With an AI-skilled workforce, companies can leverage technologies like natural language processing to deliver outstanding customer experiences. 5) #Upskilling Retains Top Talent 🏆 Top performers are always eager to grow. By providing AI training opportunities, companies signal their commitment to employee development - boosting engagement and retention of their best people. The time to act is now. Europe's most forward-thinking companies are already launching comprehensive AI upskilling initiatives, from immersive training programs to partnerships with experts. Will your company be a leader in the AI era? Or will you be left behind? The competitive battleground is being defined by companies' ability to build an AI-fluent workforce. #Upskill or be disrupted - the choice is yours. But one thing is certain, the #AI_revolution WILL NOT be stopped.

It bridges the gap between the need for feedback and the hesitation to give it, offering practical strategies that transform feedback from a feared chore into a superpower. 🔍 Why This Book is a Game-Changer:Empathy at Its Core:  Huston emphasizes empathy, showing how understanding and compassion can turn feedback sessions into opportunities for growth and connection. Practical Strategies: The book is filled with actionable advice, real-life examples, and scenarios that any HR professional can relate to and learn from.

Cultivates a Feedback Culture: "Let's Talk" doesn't just teach you how to give feedback; it guides you on fostering an environment where feedback is sought, given, and received as a gift. 🌟 My Personal Takeaway: Implementing Huston's strategies has revolutionized how you can approach feedback within an organization. You`ll be able to see a noticeable shift in culture - feedback will be no longer met with apprehension but will be embraced as a tool for personal and professional development. 📚 Your Turn to Dive In: I highly recommend "Let's Talk" to anyone looking to elevate their feedback quality.

One week ago, Darleen Caron and her team invited us to a special event: meeting with students from local partner schools, people with disabilities, apprentices, colleagues, and leaders from Siemens Healthineers in the forest of Weilersbach to engage in real 'hands-on' reforestation. Having a very little patch of forest at home myself, the task at hand was not entirely uncommon to me – but this specific setting made it were special and rewarding: Just like those trees will accumulate carbon dioxide when growing, all those young and promising students and apprentices will accumulate knowledge and experience on their path in their future. A truly sound and sustainable investment! It is also about working together as a team - with all our different strengths, perspectives, and unique abilities. One in the team may be strong digging the needed hole into the soil, another is spotting the best locations for a tree, another one is fast in carrying the needed water, ... In addition, it was an inspiring learning about decisions: All of us take thousands of small and bigger decisions every single day. Here, we took - as a company and as a team - the conscious decision to make our future a just a little better with this concrete action. Right here, right now. It was a lot of fun and just felt SO GOOD. You can do it, too! #Sustainability #notbusinessasusual #SocialResponsility #Volunteering

Dear colleagues, day four and the fourth spiritual law of success - least effort. Wouldn't it be so cool if you could effortlessly / easily achieve all your goals? I didn't think it was possible because we were all taught to work hard. But when you look at nature, doesn't everything just seem to grow so easily and naturally. Why have we become so different, almost like anomalies? This question has plagued me for a long time. As a nature lover, how awesome is the world around us? Since we are part of nature, shouldn't we be awesome as well? Aren't we all awesome in our own way? When we were young, most of us didn't think too much and just enjoyed life. There were always a few challenges, but most of the time it was playing, at least for me. What if we can get back into that mental state of playing? From my experience, I've seen least effort expended when we are just playing and having fun. It boggles my mind why this isn't encouraged more? Why can't we learn from the smartest people alive who in my opinion are kids? Why are they the smartest people, because they always ask the best questions. I hope today you question yourself and others why things have to be so difficult. Why can't we just appreciate and help each other enjoy life as much as possible? Happy Wednesday and have a great rest your week!
