A technician’s journey through practice development to enlightenment

摘要

Context/background: Though I am not in a formal leadership position, my quest to learn and grow has taken me on a personal journey of discovery as I undertook a leadership course based on practice development principles to influence a technical environment – biomedical engineering – within a hospital. Aim : To explore my journey, sharing my experiences as a biomedical technician exposed to practice development and demonstrate how I recognised changes in my behaviour and values, and how these provided the stimulus for influencing my colleagues.
