Deadpool vs. Green Lantern: Innovation Under Constraint

In this episode of the Experiencing Healthcare Podcast, Jamie and Matt get into what it truly means to think unconventionally in healthcare. From breaking away from the phrase “we’ve always done it this way” to using constraints as creative fuel, this episode is a fresh call to leaders who want to do more than just comply—they want to innovate. You’ll hear stories about Deadpool vs. Green Lantern, creative exercises that spark better brainstorming, and why even regulatory environments need room for bold thinking. If you’re ready to push boundaries and lead change, this conversation is your starting point.
