## Resource

Information transferred is not information absorbed. It sounds obvious. And yet most leaders keep running the same play anyway. The boot camp. The all-hands demo. The two-day blitz. And then three weeks later, nobody's using the tools. Anna Basevich has spent her career at the intersection of health data and human behavior. As SVP at Arcadia, she helps healthcare organizations turn fragmented, siloed data into life-saving decisions. She spent years flying across the country delivering marathon trainings that felt great in the room and evaporated by Monday. It took a pandemic, a rapid acquisition, and a ban on hospital hopping to force a better way. What came out the other side was a playbook built around one stubborn truth: people don't absorb what they're handed. They absorb what they use, revisit, and discover for themselves. The examples here come from the deep end. Nine-figure implementations. Heavily regulated data. Cross-functional teams who barely speak the same language. But every principle in this episode translates directly to any leader rolling out new tools, whether that's an enterprise platform or an AI pilot for a team of 20. Key Takeaways: The Brain Dump Trap: why cramming everything into two days guarantees your team forgets it by week three The T-Shaped Learner: broad awareness plus targeted depth beats the pure generalist and the siloed expert Chunk It or Lose It: bite-sized iterative rollouts unlock more value than any boot camp ever will Outcomes as North Star: why revisiting customer goals feels redundant until the moment it saves the whole project The Peer Effect: organic knowledge sharing among teammates beats top-down training every time The Unleashed Leader: passionate about the work and the outcome, together, not separately Additional Resource…
