Care After Covid - What the...

MD Shantanu Nundy

To succeed in the post-pandemic world, all of us need to understand the new healthcare landscape and change our strategies and behaviors accordingly. In Care After Covid, Dr. Shantanu Nundy lays out a comprehensive plan to transform healthcare along three dimensions: 
 
 
 
● Distributed: healthcare will happen where health happens. It will shift from where doctors are to where patients are—at home, in the community, and increasingly on their phones. 
 
 
 
● Digitally enabled: healthcare and the relationships that are central to care will be strengthened by data and technology. It will shift from being siloed to connected, from being episodic to continuous, from one-size-fits-all to more personalized. 
 
 
 
● Decentralized: healthcare decisions and resources will be in the hands of those closest to care. The power to determine who gets care and how they get it will shift away from governments and insurance companies to communities, employers, doctors, and patients. 
 
 
 
Filled with firsthand insights and stories from the frontlines of healthcare, as well as innovative solutions, Care After Covid shows all stakeholders in the healthcare ecosystem exactly what needs to change and, more importantly, how to do it.

Digital Diverse & Divided - How...

David Livermore

In a world of increasing polarization, Digital, Diverse & Divided shows us how to use cultural intelligence to bridge our divides and authentically connect with those around us. 
 
 
Our divides are destroying us: red versus blue, Black versus White, globalists versus nationalists, agnostics versus Christians. Drawing on seminal research on social identity and cultural intelligence, this book explains our impulse to divide people into "us" versus "them" and reveals how we can tackle tribalism, confront racism, and develop a common vision for the future. 
 
In Digital, Diverse & Divided, David Livermore outlines the four competencies of Cultural Intelligence (CQ): 
 
-	Motivation (CQ Drive) 
-	Cognition (CQ Knowledge) 
-	Metacognition (CQ Strategy) 
-	Behavior (CQ Action) 
 
He shows how we can apply this foundation to a wide range of intercultural situations. This book includes personal anecdotes, stories from around the world, and references to the work of prominent authors, psychologists, thinkers, and economists. 
 
Livermore examines different factors-place, race, gender, religious beliefs, and politics-that shape how we see the world and offers a way for us to reclaim our shared humanity.
