Now I should be doing a SMACC Back on Roger Harris' talk on the Right Heart as he surely cast a gauntlet in my path, but that would probably just encourage him : ). Instead, lets talk about…
Simon Carley on Educational Leadership and Subversion
This SMACC-Back deals with Simon Carley's lecture from SMACC 2013. If you haven't seen it yet, watch now–it is incredibly good:

Hi Scott, Thanks so much for the SMACC back. I’m so pleased that we found so much common ground about education, educators and leadership. Like you, I’m totally passionate about ensuring that clinical excellence remains at the forefront of education and that education is seen as an integral part of being a resuscitationist. As you may know I wear various educational hats and I can tell you now that if anyone ever, ever, ever, ever, (ever),*, asks me again to find an ‘educational’ role for a doctor who is struggling clinically I may explode….!
