PRESENTATION #1
The Way It Was, Is Not The Way It Is,
and Your Experience Could Be Your Worst Enemy!
To meet today's demands means not being crippled by preconceptions.
Your old ways of thinking can stifle creativity. The task in this electronic
marketplace is to unlearn old judgmentalisms that inhibit vision. Not
since the advent of the printing press has the world seen such rapid
change in the way information is shared and how business gets done.
To maintain the competitive advantage in today's explosively changing
environment means more than having access to information, it has to
do with how you process that information and come up with new ideas.

The Journey
of Heroes: Facing Challenge, Choice and Change
Change is the biological order of the universe. How you come to those
changes is more important than the challenges they represent. It's hard
for us to change, as a species we seem to want to maintain the status
quo. We are comfortable with the familiar even if it keeps us from achieving
greater success by doing things differently. Sometime in our lives we
will face difficult and serious challenges. If we can balance our fear
of change with our hopes for the future then we can transform threats
into opportunities. In his inimitable style with humor and poignancy,
this storyteller, doctor, healer, grandfather, sculptor and fly fishermen
will guide you on a transformative experience of discovery that will
all ow you to become the hero of your own life's journey.
PRESENTATION #3
Creating the New Competitive Advantage:
The Last Mask of the Authentic Leader
Only when we shed the masks that inhibit growth and learn to explore
our preconceptions and face our fears can we take the risks to become
great leaders. In this age of public scrutiny and accountability, Dr.
H discusses leadership in terms of pursuing authenticity; creating environments
that encourage risk-taking; appreciating the power of the unconscious,
intuitive mind; and transmitting the clearest sense of mission and values.
PRESENTATION #4
Healthcare
at the Crossroads: Sustaining our Healing Spirit
This is a time in which the trajectories of culture, economics and
technology are colliding to threaten the care of patients. When the
tail of cost control wags the dog of healthcare delivery then the profession
becomes just another industry. Most of us came into this field because
it was a ministry. The economics of healthcare is causing a crisis of
faith between providers and patients who no longer believe that clinical
decisions are made solely on the basis on what they need. We must address
this crisis because new medical advances are raising more financial
and ethical questions. We must restore our trust and commitments to
each other if we are to sustain our calling and cause.
