Webinar Description:

You may lose your job! We are in a world of hurt --- no doubt about. This is the real deal and health care facilities are cutting back; will yours? What can you do? Make yourself relevant to your organizations success. How can you do that? Sign up for this Webinar and Tony Lybarger will tell you how to survive and thrive in a business downturn. Throughout his career as a manager of a health care organization, he has have learned that “Adversity is often Accompanied by Opportunity”. Hard times can be good times for those of us who understand how to do more with less.

What This Webinar Will Do For You:

You cannot manage effectively from a position of weakness? Weakness, for managers, in a business downturn comes from a lack of understanding about how to create positive change while using fewer resources. At the end of this Webinar you will possess a more positive and assertive management strategy that can be used immediately to increase your individual relevance to the organization while increasing the probability that your organization can survive during a business downturn.

You will sleep better, stress less and succeed more using the Less-Is-More management strategy. The following are specific activities, skills and processes we will investigate:
