Leadership Series: Emotional Intelligence and Change - Naples
2017-07-18 17:30 - 19:30 | Physicians Regional Medical Center, 6101 Pine Ridge Road, Naples, FL, United States
Emotional intelligence (Ei) has been found to be twice as important as clinical or technical skills in determining the success of an employee. It is often called the “x factor” that identifies top performers. It is also misunderstood. In this workshop, you will learn what Ei is, why it is important and how to engage it for better influence. In the culture of change, prevalent in healthcare, it is the leader who must manage expectations and performance during the uncertainty. Ei offers a set of skills that not only buffer against the stress but also provides the roadmap to achieving unprecedented quality.

Process Improvement IS for Everybody
2017-06-08 17:00 - 20:00 | St. Joseph’s Hospital – South, 6901 Simmons Loop, Riverview, FL, 33578, United States
The concepts behind process improvement have been developed and refined over the past 100 years and have been proven effective at producing superior results across many industries and settings. Despite its effectiveness, process improvement thinking has proven underutilized, especially in situations where process improvement experts are not involved. This session will simplify the concepts behind process improvement and make them more usable for healthcare leaders at all levels. The session will explain what process improvement is, offer insights for leaders to use the concepts in their daily work, and expose the participants to examples of processes many may not have considered to be candidates for process improvement.

ACHE / HIMSS Joint Event: Healthcare Innovation and Information Security
2017-04-28 09:00 - 16:00 | South University, 4401 N. Himes Ave. #175, Tampa, FL, 33614, United States
Leading Information Safety: Information technology is increasingly a part of every aspect of the healthcare industry. While more organizations are implementing new technology, patients remain concerned about the privacy and security of their information. Healthcare executives are asked to lead the way in security initiatives without knowing where technology will lead us in the coming years while obtaining the buy-in and trust of staff, patients and the community.
Technology Innovation: There is a necessity to take stock of where the medical community stands on change and innovation, specifically regarding the use of technology. The demand for higher quality healthcare at a lower cost creates an imminent need for change and innovation in healthcare delivery.
