Leading in Challenging Times: Innovations & Inspiration
Hi everyone!  In collaboration with our National MCH Leadership Retreat Planning Committee, the UIC MCH Training Program has created a  leadership development retreat that you will love.  The type of leadership development work we try to integrate into the MCH-workforce is based in large part on building strengths, focusing on what is working and innovations, creating lasting relationships so that we can harness individual and collective wisdom about what it will take to improve MCH, and increasing emotional intelligence.   As many of you may have heard me say before, given two people with the same exact skill set and knowledge base, the personal with the higher EQ will be the stronger, more impactful leader.

In our Retreat, which will take place July 22-24, 2012 at the Hyatt Lodge in Oakbrook, IL, we are excited to have leadership expert, Dr. Stephen Bogdewic with us.  In addition to being a leadership expert and a key player in the administration of the IUPUI College of Medicine including professional development of faculty and staff, Steve is also a family therapist.  Steve is down-to-earth, practical, funny, and a gifted facilitator.  You will not be sorry that you participated in this program and you will be changed and inspired about what is possible when you return home.  The program will change you which means the way you do your work is likely to be impacted in a positive way!

We hope you will consider attending and look forward to seeing you!
