On the Road Again … with Me

By Dr. David Edward Marcinko; MBA

[Publisher-in-Chief]

I just returned from a quick unplanned trip to Baltimore, Maryland visiting several individual and corporate consulting clients.  There was also an antecedent side-trip to serve as a pharmaceutical company speaker and workshop conference mentor, as well.

Topics for the manager’s meeting in Atlanta Georgia included healthcare policy and reform, eMRs, economics, compensation and leadership. Not only was it held close to home and where I did my internship, residency and fellowship training, among other things; it was located near where I attended business school almost two decades earlier. So; how could a conference in such a storied location fail to be tons of fun? It can’t – and it didn’t.

Impressive Venue

I was impressed with the Marriott Marquis hotel organization (lots of conference staff with directions to buildings and meeting rooms), the resources (catering, efficiently delivered and free WiFi everywhere), attendees, presenters, and beautiful downtown urban location.

Impressive Meeting

But, most of all I was impressed with the speakers, topics and content – and floored by the informal post-mortem discussions. I received good-excellent feedback on the slide-show I authored and presented, and even watched a few speakers take their licks, always kindly delivered (all in the name of progress) from an informed and engaged audience. If I’m ever able to perform half as well as the average discussant in the future, I’ll be very pleased, indeed.

Self-Learning Didactics

Of course, I gave and learned a much vis-a-vie the bilateral educational principles of andragogy and heutagogy, although nothing I’m ready to put into writing right now. Rest assured however, future ME-Ps will be of higher quality relative to the counterfactual that I didn’t attend the conference meeting.

Assessment

Finally, I met several colleagues who read, comment and post to the ME-P. All had kind words to say about this electronic forum. From what I heard, it’s beginning to feel like we are becoming a valuable resource to the community we serve. I’m delighted.
