Three big words…

The three words beginning with the letter “I” are characteristics of great leaders.

Where do you find such leaders? How do you get to learn from them? How do you connect with them, even in a virtual space, and what’s in it for you?

These are all great questions. Of course, I have a great answer. Please join Candy Campbell and me for the Global Healthcare Leadership Summit on November 5th and 6th.

Why?

We have 30 thought leaders as speakers.
We have incredible sponsors, any of whom will be sharing their products/services and offering prizes.
We have 4 fantastic keynote presenters, including Mary C. Kelly, Chris Hennessy, LeAnn Thieman, and Martie Moore.
We have a value-packed Playbook available to you
And, did I mention that it is FREE?

When?

November 5th and 6th at 10:45 am ET

Where?

Integrity, Insight, Innovation

Each of the keynotes and/or panels will focus on one or more aspects of the three “I”s. The Global Healthcare Leadership Summit highlights Service Excellence… Around the Country and Across the Globe.

Keep your Distance…but stay close!

What a change a pandemic can make! Covid-19 has wreaked havoc in our daily lives, disrupted business and the economy, and taken its toll on human lives. What more can we expect, and how can we keep our distance, yet remain close?

I think about a colleague whose dad is quite ill; she needs to be at his bedside, and she is unable to be there, to have a presence, to provide support. I think about how that makes her feel, and I am saddened by her inability to be physically close. I think about my career as a nurse and how how the opportunity to hold a hand, to wipe a forehead, and to smile beyond a mask brought joy to those for whom I provided care, as well as to me.

I think about today’s students at all levels of their education who are having a transformational experience…whose connection is across networks, and who are learning as much about life as they are about required core curriculum. I think about the Class of 2020: the 3.7 million high school seniors for whom natural trauma has been a constant. Born right after 9/11; they were fifth graders during Sandy Hook, and they were sophomores when a gunman attacked Marjorie Stoneman High School in Parkland, FL. Our country has been at war since they were born, and the current war, the Coronavirus Pandemic, has reinforced life’s lessons that change happens.

I think about those on the frontlines, the healthcare workers, first responders and all of those who are working in “essential industries,” who risk their lives and those of their loved ones each and every day so that we may remain safe.

As controls are lifted, and as some communities venture out into a new type of normal, please consider these best practices for distancing:

Limit your time in public; schedule your outings carefully
Keep your distance
Bring hand sanitizer; continue to wear gloves
Wash your hands
Cover your mouth; wear a mask to protect others

Remain close with phone calls to friends and loved ones, video chats, virtual game night (bring out those board games and decks of cards), virtual movie night, exercise videos and workouts online, mindfulness activities, and video games that connect you locally and globally. Use your devices to connect, to see others, to celebrate birthdays and milestones, and to stay connected. Keep your distance…but stay close!

Let’s talk stress numbers…

What are those numbers?

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 60-70% of all disease and illness is stress-related.
Approximately 75 to 90% of physician-office visits are stress-related.
According to the American Institute of Stress, a whopping $300 billion dollars per year is spent on job stress, including absenteeism, turnover, diminished productivity, and medical/legal/insurance costs.

What about you?

If you are busy with a demanding job and family and friends who seek your time and attention, you are blessed, but only if you can handle it. Consider the stressors in your own life, including the things that deplete your energy and bring you down.

When your devices are on low battery, do you plug them in? When your vehicle needs fuel, do you fill the tank? What about your most vulnerable commodity – your body – what do you do for it?

You may be a workaholic like I was; I thought the day was thirty hours long. I tried to fit a schedule into each of those hours to achieve life to the fullest, and my strategy did not work! As one who has reinvented myself professionally throughout my career, I am aware of the challenges of work/life balance. I worked long hours and I always felt as if something was missing…and that something was family time. Balancing a career or business with your personal life is possible. Are You Ready to Recharge Your Battery? offers actions you can take to build the life and career you want, need, and deserve.

We need to recharge- so get set, get ready, and let’s go. We’ll explore the process of engaging in life and work, prepare for change and a charge, manage time and resources, and reinvent ourselves. The process begins here and now, with content and action steps at the end of each section that empower to act, recover, and restore to a full charge.

Now is the time to enjoy Are You Ready to Recharge Your Battery? and then pay it forward by sharing the message with your peers through an amazing Amazon or Good Reads review. For your electronic copy, contact me now.

Launching….what?

ARE YOU READY FOR A WOWTCOME™?

ARE YOU READY TO JOIN MY LAUNCH TEAM FOR…

The New Book?

If you answered “Yes” to any of those questions, launch with me! You might ask, “Launching, what does that mean, what are my responsibilities, how may I help, who shall I tell…”

My new book, Are You Ready to Recharge Your Battery? Secrets to work/life balance was just released. My marketing team created a launch strategy six weeks out that would propel my book to the top of the charts. Their efforts included social media advertising, promotional campaigns, promo videos, outreach, and so much more.

The field is crowded; many new releases fall into the same category, limiting the potential for exposure.

Each year a huge number of new book titles are written and published (https://www.theifod.com/how-many-new-books-are-published-each-year-and-other-related-books-facts/). According to Stephen Hawking in his recent book Brief Answers to the Big Questions, he states that “if you stacked the new books being published next to each other, at the present rate of production you would have to move at ninety miles an hour just to keep up with the end of the line.”

How, then, does a book “launch?” How do we spread the word, join the team, promote the efforts, disseminate the message, and create energy? I’ve launched, and multiple book signings are scheduled this month and next. Enjoy this video promo, and let’s get this launch going… https://www.dropbox.com/s/legooz8osegotz5/sharonweinstein%20_overwhelm%20book%20promo.mp4?dl=0
