Reflection

“We need to accept our ignorance and say ‘I don’t know’ more often.” –Malcolm Gladwell

Prayer

God of truth,

As we pursue your mission together, empower us to foster a work culture in which it’s safe for us to admit we don’t know what we don’t know. May we find help and support in each other, so that a genuine spirit of teamwork and cooperation can continue to grow among us. For the sake of higher quality care for patients and greater impact in our communities, help us share a learner’s mindset, encouraging each other to learn from mistakes while developing new ways and methods to respond faithfully to the needs we encounter around us. Amen.

Call to Action

Don’t make stuff up today just to avoid looking ignorant. Admit when I don’t know something. Trust that others will respect my integrity and that we’ll get there together.
