My Medical Skills Give Me Experience Points Chapter 1465 - 586: The Director Wants to Give More Responsi
Winning the appreciation of the leaders in your unit is crucial.
If Director Lou didn’t like Zhou Can, there’s no way he’d work this hard to sing Zhou Can’s praises in front of Dean Zhu.
So of these functions would still be handed to Zhou Can, but most of them could be kept for himself or given to Dr. Xu.
Old hands in the workplace all understand one truth: if the leader says you’re good, you’re good; if he says you’re no good, even if you’re good, you’re no good.
"Hehe, I was actually just waving the flag and shouting on the sidelines. The success of the surgery scoring system is all thanks to your brilliant leadership, to Dr. Xu and Dr. Cui working overti and putting in all that effort, and it couldn’t have happened without everyone’s cooperation and support. I won’t say anything else—thank you for cultivating , I really an it, thank you so much."
Even though Zhou Can’s contribution was clearly the greatest, he pushed the credit onto everyone else.
The leader’s contribution is the one thing you can never erase.
No matter how much Director Lou appreciates him, this is sothing he must keep in mind at all tis.
"You’re the future hope of our Ergency Departnt; no amount of grooming you is too much. Besides, you really are outstanding." Director Lou paused, then went on. "Dean Zhu said you should be ready to take on more responsibilities; he might be adding a bit more weight on your shoulders."
When Zhou Can heard this, his heart couldn’t help speeding up.
His entry into the Quality Control Departnt had been held up by Assistant Dean Qin, who simply wouldn’t sign off. Over this past month, Zhou Can had tried all kinds of thods, but Assistant Dean Qin was even harder to deal with than imagined, almost giving Zhou Can no room to exert any leverage.
Even when Zhou Can tried to invite Assistant Dean Qin out for a al, he was turned down.
Assistant Dean Qin set up an absolute-defense posture, basically cutting off any avenue for Zhou Can to plead his case or offer gifts.
Later, after asking around through a long chain of contacts, Zhou Can finally figured out why Assistant Dean Qin was so "hostile" toward him.
He bore no personal grudge against Assistant Dean Qin; the two had never crossed swords.
Granted, Zhou Can had indeed helped topple the previous assistant dean, but that was for a reason. Strictly speaking, Zhou Can not only posed no threat to Assistant Dean Qin, he actually had done him a favor.
If Zhou Can hadn’t pulled down the previous assistant dean, Assistant Dean Qin would never have had the chance to rise.
This Assistant Dean Qin being able to erge as a dark horse from such fierce competition ant his ability and thods were top-tier.
That much was beyond doubt.
The reason he was insistent on not letting Zhou Can into the Quality Control Departnt was that slots for new mbers there were extrely scarce. In the past three years, the Quality Control Departnt had only had two vacancies.
That shows you just how hard it is to get into Quality Control.
Back then, that Zhong Hui from the quality control task force charged straight into the OR with his people to audit Zhou Can—his power could be called overwhelming.
Little did people know that Zhong Hui was just a mid-level in the Quality Control Departnt.
He didn’t even count as upper managent.
Quality Control, in full, is dical Quality Control.
The scope it can oversee is extrely broad: practically all clinical doctors and nurses, all clinical departnts, and so non-clinical ones all fall under its jurisdiction.
Anyone who’s been a pharma rep knows: even if the clinical departnt director signs off, and the pharmacy also agrees, if the Quality Control leadership decides to block it, that drug is basically not getting in.
As for doctors, nurses, and departnts that have been punished by Quality Control for their clinical practice—there are too many to count.
So many that when people hear "Hospital Infection Control" and "Quality Control," they fear them like tigers.
A lot of doctors and nurses think the dical Departnt is scary, but in fact the dical Departnt exists to protect dical staff. It’s relatively friendly toward them.
It’s just that because of human nature’s darker side, those who hold power in their hands always want to use that power to make things hard for others.
That’s what makes everyone generally dislike the dical Departnt.
The one that really kills without drawing blood is Quality Control.
It can even directly affect how a departnt operates.
Assistant Dean Qin wouldn’t let Zhou Can enter Quality Control because there was only one vacancy.
Scarcity drives up value.
A certain attending physician from Neurosurgery also wanted into Quality Control. And this attending was very young—he only got his full professor title last year, at the age of thirty-nine. Not even forty yet and already a full professor—what an absolute monster.
If that were all, Zhou Can still wouldn’t be afraid.
Because even though on paper Zhou Can was just a Resident Doctor, he was more monstrous than many attending physicians.
His potential was so great it pointed straight at the dean’s chair.
If nothing unexpected happens, within ten years there’s a real chance Zhou Can could seize the dean’s position.
This is no exaggeration.
In many public hospitals, the candidates for dean are basically already fixed.
For example, the current dean of the First People Hospital is the grandson of the dean from two terms ago. The last dean was the student of the dean before him. If there’s no "airdrop," it’s almost impossible to break this kind of "hereditary monopoly."
Tuya Hospital is a bit better in that regard, but the water is just as deep.
Crows are black the world over; things are pretty much the sa everywhere.
An airdrop can at best disrupt this hereditary monopoly.
In practice, an airdropped dean lacks local roots. If his ability isn’t strong enough and his backing not hard enough, he can easily be sidelined.
You can look at ancient history for parallels—those County Magistrates who were stripped of real power. Many of them didn’t last a year in office before being forced out or driven away.
Local clans were everywhere, petty officials ran wild, and the water was very deep.
There’s that famous case of a minor Household Office inspector who managed to drive out seven successive County Magistrates, ultimately forcing the emperor to travel incognito to investigate—that was shocking enough. Even though the emperor later personally investigated and punished that inspector, local snakes are not so easy to catch.
All the local governnt officers and Governnt Officials knew that inspector well, and their interests were deeply intertwined; they were already bound tightly together.
There was no way they’d help the emperor catch this inspector.
So they could only send governnt officers down from the prefecture to arrest him.
Two governnt officers were sent, but once they arrived locally, they were completely in the dark, not even knowing where that inspector lived. They still had to rely on local officials for help.
But that inspector was too damn capable; he’d long since turned the local scene into a sheet of solid iron under his control.
The governnt officers from above were still on the road when he already got word.
So how did he handle it?
He sent a trusted subordinate to accompany those two governnt officers from above, eating, drinking, having fun, and put them up in a widow’s house. With a beauty waiting on them and good food and drink every day, the two were already too happy to think of going ho.
The arrest business was dragged out again and again.
Only when three successive urgent decrees ca down from above did the two finally take a long-rotten corpse back to report their mission complete.
They reported to their superiors that the inspector who committed the cri had committed suicide out of guilt; because of the hot weather, the body was already decomposed when they found it.
Local clerks and villagers were called to identify the corpse, and all testified that the suicide was indeed that inspector.
This case, which made historians’ eyes pop, was thus closed.
The offending inspector simply changed his na and carried on living it up. His son soon took over his inspector’s post and continued monopolizing power in the county yan.
Hospitals—especially big compound-style hospitals like this—are likewise riddled with tangled利益 networks.
A dean parachuted in from outside can very easily be sidelined.
But soone like Zhou Can, who grew up locally, is different. He saved the life of Cao Zhengguo’s daughter and the child in her womb.
Cao Zhengguo is Dean Zhu’s superior; it was Cao Zhengguo who helped lift Dean Zhu into his position back then.
Dean Zhu’s son isn’t in the healthcare system, so the chances of him taking over are slim.
With Cao Zhengguo’s support, and a reasonably good relationship with Dean Zhu, Zhou Can has a high probability of rising in the future.
Of course, right now not even the first stroke of the character has been written; becoming Tuya’s dean is still a long way off.
He at least has to produce so real achievents he can put on the table.
Like Director Xue Yan, who single-handedly resurrected the Cardiothoracic Surgery Departnt that had almost been crushed by outside hospitals, and even created unprecedented brilliance. That is a major achievent.
In their talk last ti, Vice Director Ye bluntly said that Director Xue Yan could rely on that achievent alone to directly compete for the vice director’s seat.
And with a very high chance of success.
If Zhou Can can lead the Ergency Departnt to glory, that will beco one of his major achievents, and one of the assets he can use to compete for the dean’s position.
