9:30 - 10:30 am | Opening General Session feat. Keynote: "Courageous Communication through Change and Chaos"

with Christopher Ridenhour, GFN, Trainer/Educator, Inspired2Results

Here is the session for any leader who has ever contemplated turning in their responsibilities for a tropical paradise and butterfly net. Enduring crises has left our teams and residents exhausted and easily triggered. They are starving for greater connection, expressed compassion, and confident optimism. The intensity of our current reality requires new tools and strategies to ease the fear, isolation, pessimism, and combat fatigue. Unleashing hope and higher performance in others requires leveling up our skill at owning the “super” part of “supervision.” Mastering both our words and emotions means never having to hope, wish, or cross our fingers to create lasting positive change in our organizations.  Learn more >>

9:00 - 10:15 am | Closing General Session + Breakfast feat. Keynote: "Tired to Inspired"

with Denise Boudreau, MHA, LNHA, President, Drive

We all come into the aging services field wanting to make a difference in the lives of others, but after a few years we find ourselves feeling more tired than inspired! In this unique and powerful presentation, you’ll discover the astonishing underlying cause of the fatigue that so often turns the most idealistic and well-intentioned staff into part of the problem. You’ll find out how doing the right thing, in every sense of the word, will fill your community, build your reputation and have the hearts of your staff brimming with the love and enthusiasm that led them into aging services in the first place. You’ll take an exhilarating round trip from tired to inspired and return to your workplace with new ideas and concepts, and a simple but amazingly effective system to raise and sustain everyone’s energy.
