Activity is Not Productivity: Lifting Execution Through Reclaiming White Space Presenter: Juliet Funt, CEO, WhiteSpace at Work In this high-energy session, we'll examine the critical difference between activity and true productivity, between cramming in more tasks and selectively choosing to dive into the right ones. We'll also meet The Thieves of Productivity, a group of positive assets that often run amuck and trap us into low-value tasks. By examining the surprising downside of these attributes, we'll create a customized road map towards more white space (thoughtful time) at the individual, team and organizational level. |

2 People Locked in Closets, Keeping Them Alive with the Right Questions, Risk Management & Potentially Violent Patients Presenter: Ron Zimmet, MHRRG Reducing the risk of litigation and providing the highest quality care for potentially violent patients involves specific steps which are often the subject of lawsuits. These include responding to danger signs, completing a scientifically-validated risk assessment, accessing sufficient, reasonably-available information and selecting the most appropriate intervention. Sometimes a misunderstanding of HIPAA regulations acts as a barrier to accessing adequate information. The speaker will discuss each of these areas as informed by the lessons learned in over 30 years of behavioral healthcare professional liability litigation. |
