How would this help solve the problem the article started with, that patients don't heal because they're deprived of sleep by being woken up every 4 hours? It's a problem everyone knows about (I saw complaints about it online years ago) -- so it's not directly a communications problem. Leadership I can see: it seems needed to dig the system out of an inadequate equilibrium (https://equilibriabook.com/molochs-toolbox/ https://equilibriabook.com/molochs-toolbox/) but that's pretty different from college courses in leadership.
