Disruption - Your Journey from Now to Next

Presenter: Senior Leadership Advisor, International Speaker & Best-selling Author David Nour

Most mental health leaders would agree that to remain relevant, they must evolve. After all, the unique needs and opportunities in the industry are evolving. With ever  increasing demands in data analytics, social, mobile, cloud, NPS, Sentiment Analysis, and soon to join the party, AI/Machine Learning, Blockchain, and Cryptocurrencies, doing  more of the same will no longer suffice. Although disruption is interesting to talk about, it’s a complex topic. We believe it to be a journey, from Now to Next involving a stair step to Iterate -  Innovate - and Disrupt. In this innovation mini-workshop, we’ll discuss the fundamental flaws in many business models in a dynamic and highly agile market, opportunities to scale and create  new profitable revenue and growth avenues, the critical need to pivot ahead of market demands, and the ever increasing impact of technology combined with customer-centricity.

Curve Benders – How Strategic Relationships Can Power Your Non-linear Growth in the Future of Work

Presenter: Senior Leadership Advisor, International Speaker & Best-selling Author David Nour 

In the future of how we’ll work, live, play, and give, 15 forces will create dramatic headwind, tailwind, or turbulence in our lives and careers. Learning their relevance is no longer  optional; it’s a necessity. For most mental health professionals learning is linear – they learn, then they apply. When it comes to your industry relationships, a different lens is needed.  Time and again, people enter our lives that dramatically alter both the direction and destination of our lives. These individual relationships become enablers of an adaptive and accelerated  non-linear growth. They are your Curve Benders. So, who are your Curve Benders and how do you find them? More importantly, how do you become one in the lives of others? And how can  the Curve Bending mindset unlock the next level of value creation and profitable growth in the mental health industry? Find out in this exciting session!

In this workshop, CODAC Health, Recovery & Wellness, Inc. will tell the story of the progression of an insulated Medication Assisted Treatment program into a community- centered collaborative hub of providers that meets the needs of individuals 24/7/365. The presentation highlights how co-located collaborations with police, hospitals, and other social service agencies were developed and expanded beyond the original intent to address criminal justice, health care, housing options, employment and other social determinants of health, including  the on-going efforts needed to develop a common culture between groups with differing approaches. The presentation will also show how a strategic substance use treatment marketing  campaign was created and has been effective in increasing outreach, engagement and enrollment in services.

This session will focus on the various levers available to state Medicaid programs in addressing inequities that exist within healthcare delivery systems.

You Can’t Color Inside the Lines If There Are No Lines

Presenter: Principal at Health Management Associates Joshua Rubin

The days of bright lines are over. The days of hybrids, integration, collective responsibility, shared services, multi-service providers, and multi-provider platforms are here. We  had clear definitions of our agencies, our clients, our services, and our missions. Now we have confusion, competition, and chaos as new providers, funders, and models emerge to challenge us and push us forward. Behavioral health agency executives face massive strategic challenges and unprecedented paradigm shifts that will require creativity, courage, and confident leadership. With the lines gone, so is any security we had, but so are a lot of the constraints that have held us back. It’s time to draw something new, different, better.
