10 years in one place

In June 2023, I celebrated 10 years at Parkview Health.

These are the top seven lessons I've learned in my first ten years in healthcare. ⬇️

🌎1. The world is a much more complicated place than I originally thought.

🛐2. Changing your beliefs in light of new experiences is a sign of maturity, not weakness.

💁🏻‍♂️3. Empowering others is more fun than your own success.

🏅4. Work isn't a family. It's a team. That's better and more healthy.

💓5. Believing the best in people will enable some coworkers to soar, and others to fall.

🧑🏻‍🏭6. If you really believe in something, don't take 'no' for an answer. Find another way.

👩🏼‍💼7. Executives put their pants on one leg at a time. Don't be intimidated by big titles. Instead, help them. They have a tough job.

Thank you, Ann Lantz and Jeannine Nix for hiring me, Ben Miles, Curtis Smith, Dena Jacquay, and Sarah GiaQuinta, MD for leading me, and Kristen Riecke and Daniel Riecke for supporting me.

There are too many coworkers to tag, but special shoutout to Jon Swanson for seldom agreeing with me, but always helping me to become better.
