The FUNdamentals of Healthcare Leadership
Leading Others by Light(en)ing the Way

 

Overview:

Many healthcare leaders believe that in order to be successful, they must always be serious. However, leadership is not just about being serious. It’s about motivating and inspiring others, and it requires a variety of skills including humor.

In this presentation, event attendees at the Georgia Healthcare Trade Faire & Regional Conference will see how humor enhances one’s abilities and is a necessary tool for providing effective professional and personal leadership. In addition, event attendees will gain insight as to how to take responsibility for the values, skills and attitude that are necessary to be an outstanding leader. Through a FUN, funny and educational experience, event attendees will see how doing the right thing and the light thing will “lead” them to success.

Ronald P. Culberson, MSW, CSP spent ten years in a large hospice organization in which he went from a front line staff member to a senior leadership position. His use of humor, his understanding of the healthcare environment and his command of the skills needed to manage and lead people helped him as he managed 26 direct reports, chaired a number of committees and task forces, and created the first customer service and quality improvement initiative in his hospice.
