Agenda (Preliminary)

Wednesday, June 27
2 - 5 p.m.
Possibilities, Probabilities and Creative Solutions: Breakthrough
Thinking for Complex Environments
Kevin E. O’Connor, Coaching Professional and Professor

In this Category I American College of Healthcare Executives (ACHE) session, Kevin O’Connor will go beyond traditional methods for problem solving and create new approaches that will inspire your team to generate new ideas and facilitate sustainable improvement. He will discuss how to realize better bottom-line results with breakthrough strategies that incorporate innovation and creativity and will explain how to think beyond the “here and now” and focus on better and more future-oriented outcomes. In this three-hour session you will also learn:

• how to stop trying to solve new problems with the same old approaches;
  
• techniques to anticipate and overcome roadblocks, objections, and those who say “We can’t do that.”;
  
• strategies to improve team performance; and
  
• how to stop (or start) a “runaway train” at your organization.
