Communicating Ineffectively: The Costs (part 1)
Constantly communicating and reiterating the vision and direction keeps members focused in their actions and efforts and avoiding distractions and sluggishness that can come from diversions. Today’s employees consider internal communication to be a vital part of their employee experience.
Valuable Time Wasted Searching for Information
We live in a world of instant information and when information is not shared at the right time by colleagues or supervisors, or when too much information is shared, it is difficult for people to do their jobs.

Regenerative Medicine: An Example of Tissue Engineering
Tissue engineering is about using aspects of cell biology and transplantation of cells, along with materials science and biomedical engineering, to develop biological substitutes for tissues and organs. These substitutes can restore and maintain the normal function of damaged tissues and organs. Tisue engineering methods include the injection of functional cells into a non-functional site to stimulate regeneration in that area and the use of biocompatible materials to create new tissues and organs. These biomaterials can be natural or synthetic matrices, often termed scaffolds, which encourage the body’s natural ability to repair itself and assist in determining the orientation and direction of new tissue growth.
To say it simply, tissue engineering is about using the individual’s cells to “engineer” or create tissue that is used to enforce or reinforce affected sites and assist in repair and regeneration of the site.
Regenerative Medicine: What is it?
We have focused on human cell-based therapy but it is worth further emphasizing the important and growing linkage between gene therapy and regenerative medicine. Cell therapy represents a way of placing genes in cells, checking the outcome is safe and then implanting the cells into patients.
Blockchain and its Role in Healthcare: Advantages and Disadvantages
Miscommunication between medical professionals costs the healthcare industry a staggering $11 billion a year. The time-consuming process of obtaining access to a patient's medical records exhausts staff resources and delays patient care. Blockchain-based medical records offer a cure for these ills.
The decentralized nature of the technology creates an ecosystem of patient data that can be quickly and efficiently referenced by doctors, hospitals, pharmacists, and anyone else involved in treatment. In this way, the blockchain can lead to faster diagnoses and personalized care plans.
Communicating Effectively: Being Emotionally Intelligent
Emotional Intelligence is the measure of an individual’s abilities to recognise and manage their emotions, and the emotions of other people, both individually and in groups. Benefits of higher emotional intelligence include people being more easily able to form and maintain interpersonal relationships, to ‘fit in’ to group situations, and to be in communication. Communicate effectively by expanding your emotional intelligence.
Crisis Communication: Managing during difficult times
Crisis management and communication is the art of dealing with, and communicating about, sudden and unexpected events which disturbs the employees, organization as well as external clients.
