In this energizing episode of The ASHHRA Podcast, hosts Luke Carignan and Bo Brabo chat with Shaina Lane, Senior Leadership Development Specialist at AccentCare. With a background in sports medicine and healthcare operations, Shaina shares her pivot to HR and her passion for building better leaders. Drawing from her book Leadership Is Easy, Said No One Ever: 11 Habits to Learn Early So You Can Lead Expertly, she tackles common pitfalls like reactive "shitty" leadership and offers actionable strategies for proactive growth.

Shaina emphasizes shifting from task management to people development, especially in healthcare's high-pressure environment. From promoting technical experts without mindset training to fostering curiosity and vulnerability, her insights empower HR pros to create resilient teams amid talent shortages.

Key takeaways for healthcare HR leaders:

• 11 Essential Habits: Build routines for meaningful 1:1s, difficult conversations, feedback, and professional development—free guides available at shainalane.com.

• Resources Galore: Grab Shaina's book for practical tools; pair with classics like Crucial Conversations for comprehensive growth.
• Self-Start Leadership: Don't wait for org-wide programs—HR can drive change with simple habits and data-backed business cases.
