7. Overview of the Day
1. Driver Diagrams
2. Social media as a strategy for improvement
3. Case Studies – cool examples to inspire!
4. Getting started on your own social media
strategy
#M9 | #quality2014
9. What is a theory?
• A description of our best understanding about
why things are the way they are
• Theories/beliefs in other contexts?
– Economics – game theory
– Biology - theory of evolution
– Physics – string theory
– Metereology – chaos theory
– Social media - ?
#M9 | #quality2014
10. How is a theory different from a belief?
• A theory can be tested scientifically
• Theories are predictions of the outcome of
future events
• Theory is the starting place for generating new
knowledge
#M9 | #quality2014
15. What do we believe about why things
are the way they are?
• Evidence – what objective evidence have we
collected locally or is available to us through
the relevant literature?
• Local subject matter experts – people who
work at the frontline who experience the
system day to day and have strong
experiential beliefs about where change is
needed
#M9 | #quality2014
16. Some guidance on creating a driver diagram
• Start with the outcome in mind – develop an aim
statement that reflects the desired future state
• Primary drivers should be nouns that reflect the
key leverage points in the system of interest from
three areas:
1. Structures – physical, financial, administrative,
management and improvement, delegation and
accountability
2. Processes – workflow of the system, how things are
accomplished
3. Operating norms – written and unwritten rules that
govern behaviour
#M9 | #quality2014
17. Some guidance on creating a driver diagram
• Secondary drivers must be tangible things
where action can be taken on the system
• Change ideas should link directly to secondary
drivers and should exhibit these
characteristics:
1. Specific - each change idea needs to be clear
and concise and it must be obvious how its
introduction is different from the status quo
2. How to - each change idea must include a
statement about how and where it will be put
into practice within the system

18. SO CAN WE USE THIS APPROACH
FOR OUR SOCIAL MEDIA STRATEGY?

28. TRIZ – First Step
In groups, make a list of “to do’s” in answer to your
assigned question on a flip chart.
There is no wrong answer – GO WILD!
5 minutes
#M9 | #quality2014
29. Questions
1. How can we ensure privacy is breached on social media
tools such as Twitter/Facebook?
2. How do we make sure no one is on Twitter?
3. How can ensure NO dialogue, learning or sharing occurs
on online community of practice websites?
4. What could we do to ensure we do NOT succeed in using
social media as a health care improvement tool?
#M9 | #quality2014
30. TRIZ – Second Step
Go down the list and ask:
“Is there anything on this list that we
currently practice, even remotely?”
— Cross out the ones that you aren’t doing EVER
— Circle the ones that you resemble something
you are currently doing
#M9 | #quality2014
31. TRIZ – Third Step
Take one item at a time and ask:
— How am I and how are we going to stop it?
— What would be the first move?
— What could I personally commit to stopping right now.
— What could we do in the next few days? Next week?
— Do we need leadership help? Organizational support?”
