3RD ANNUAL MEDICAL ADVISORY GROUP CONFERENCE

Growth, while outstanding, often directs attention away from the core values and overarching mission of any practice, in any industry. With healthcare being one of the fastest growing sectors, it’s no surprise that consumers and employees have witnessed a derailing of the true intention of healthcare: care.

​

This is not unique as leaders often forget that without people, who need to know their value, that they are cared for, and fundamentally have meaningful connections at work and with their health care providers, there is no industry.

​

Recently, the corporate and professional training team at Virginia Western Community College have been focusing in on generational variances and overall health in the workplace, discovering that the elements of awakened leadership is currently trumping all other forms of leadership in the marketplace today and harboring results of higher patient/customer satisfaction, and a more highly engaged workforce – and therefore, retained – workforce.

​

Driven on transparency, trust, and respect, igniting awakened leadership in your practice will ultimately return care to healthcare and offer additional relevance for increased retention rates and a higher performing staff.
