Ep 1: Leading Through Complexity: Why Dialogue Matters in Medicine and Beyond
The PLA Podcast
Welcome to the inaugural episode of the Physicians Leadership Academy (PLA) Podcast, brought to you by the Columbus Medical Association. Hosts Dr. Stephanie Costa and Dr. Phil Cass sit down with complexity theorist and dialogue practitioner Chris Corrigan for a rich conversation on why linear thinking falls short when tackling healthcare’s most difficult challenges.
From ER staffing issues to physician burnout, Chris explores how complexity theory and participatory dialogue can help leaders navigate uncertainty, foster innovation, and create more life-giving work environments. This episode is a must-listen for physicians seeking to lead with meaning, resilience, and connection—both in the exam room and beyond.
