• The Human Optimization Project: Creating Winning Cultures | Building and Maintaining an Optimal Culture for Teams and Individuals

  Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest: Christina K. Zorn “Culture” is a word that gets a lot of attention, and deservedly so! It is often thought of as the lifeblood of an organization. However, many of us don’t think about the fact that “culture” doesn’t just exist at the level of large organizations. Culture exists for smaller groups, teams, families, and even individuals. In today’s episode, we will work to define “culture”, discuss its impact on groups (large and small) and individuals, provide real world examples of the impact of culture, and discuss ways of optimizing culture in both the workplace and at home. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are: 1) What exactly is “culture” and why is it so critical to success? 2) How does “culture” impact behavior and outcomes at work and at home? 3) What steps can I take to contribute to a positive culture in the workplace and for my own personal development? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Christina K. Zorn, who is the Chief Administrative Officer of Mayo Clinic.

• The Human Optimization Project: Emotional Intelligence Explained | How to Recognize, Understand, and Use Your Emotions to Be a More Effective Human

  Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest: Mary Ann Djonne, M.Ed. Most of us have heard the term “Emotional Intelligence,” and we understand that it’s generally important to our happiness and interpersonal relationships. However, most of us aren’t able to define it precisely or understand the key components that make it up. While many may think they do a good job of evaluating the emotional intelligence of others, it can be quite difficult to objectively evaluate our own levels of emotional intelligence. Once we better understand our own emotional intelligence, then comes the very challenging task of trying to improve it in a meaningful way. All of this can seem quite daunting, so we are going to help with that. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are: 1) What exactly is “Emotional Intelligence”? 2) What are the benefits and why should I make it a priority to improve my Emotional Intelligence? 3) What are the actual steps I can take to maximize my own Emotional Intelligence? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is Mary Ann Djonne, Professional Certified Executive Coach and Senior Advisor in Work Force Learning at Mayo Clinic.

• The Human Optimization Project: Exercise Simplified | Essential Components of the Ideal Workout Plan

  Host: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Guest:  Andrea Hayden MS, RSCC - Sports Performance Coach Description:  The amount of “exercise” information, recommendations, plans, and opinions out there is greater than it’s ever been. Although our increasing knowledge is generally helpful, it’s easy to get lost in the rapidly evolving sea of information. This is particularly true because much of the information we hear is contradictory, and many people claim to have the perfect (and only) answer for us. Our goal for today is to help you cut through all of this noise and focus on what you really need to know to establish a successful workout routine for yourself. The three big questions we will tackle in this episode are: 1) What is meant by an “ideal” or “optimal” workout plan? 2) How do I make sense of all the exercise recommendations out there? 3) What do I need to do to create an ideal exercise routine for my needs? To help us answer these questions, my guest today is the Head Sports Performance Coach for the Minnesota Lynx WNBA Basketball Team, Andrea Hayden MS, RSCC.

• The Human Optimization Project: The Challenging but Achievable Quest for Accomplishing More While Also Improving Wellness

  Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Christopher L. Camp, M.D. Being a healthcare clinician is an extremely rewarding occupation, but it can be stressful. Every year, we’re asked to do more and more, the patients seem to get more challenging, and we get less time to spend with each one. A significant number of clinicians report emotional and psychological distress, and burnout remains a major problem in healthcare providers. This increased stress and pressure is not just unique to physicians, and these struggles are common for all of us, regardless of career or position. How do we remain in an optimally functioning state? Does our physical health affect our cognitive function? Given the obstacles we face, how do we continue to achieve joy and happiness in our work and our life while continue to meet the ever-growing demands of the world? These are questions my guest is hoping to answer in a project he’s about to undertake on “Human Optimization”. My guest for this podcast is Christopher L. Camp, M.D., an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist at the Mayo Clinic. We’re going to discuss his project and why he decided to tackle this important topic.  Learn more about The Human Optimization Project: Mayo Clinic Talks: Human Optimization | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development X: @MayoHumanOpProj Instagram: @Mayo_Human_Op_Prog Connect with Mayo Clinic Podcasts | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development

• The Evaluation and Management of Adnexal Masses

  Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Carrie L. Langstraat, M.D. It’s estimated that up to 10% of women in the U.S. will develop an adnexal mass at some point in their life. Whereas most adnexal masses are gynecologic in origin, they may also represent disease of the urinary or GI system. Although adnexal masses may produce symptoms, when present, they tend to be subtle and non-specific. What questions should we be asking our patients with an adnexal mass to help determine its cause? What components of the physical exam may be useful in the evaluation and what tests should we order to further characterize adnexal masses? These are questions I’ll be asking our guest for this podcast as we discuss “The Evaluation and Management of Adnexal Masses”. My guest is Carrie L. Langstraat, M.D., from the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at the Mayo Clinic. Connect with Mayo Clinic Podcasts | Mayo Clinic School of Continuous Professional Development
